A render of my character on a bed with text floating above them in green saying "sleeping" with my desk and chair off to the side and my cat laying on the end of the bed.
Also did a little sleeping one, albeit it's still cause throwing together animations at 5 AM is a bad idea. (and definitely didn't forget hashes above) #3DAnimation #Blender #Stream
Threw together some animations/kinda renders during my wacky marathon I'm doing.
Definitely not great, BUT, it's progress on doing renders lol
... DAMN IT THAT'S WHY IT DIDN'T LET ME TURN IT ON
CURSE YOU TWITCH, I WANTED TO CHEESE!!!
(I thought Twitch just broke as usual when I tried to enable it and just didn't show for me)
(I even did a little anim for it, cause why not youtube.com/shorts/XqQ2T...)
So, apparently Twitch has discounts you can turn on, totalling 70 hours a year. Conveniently 2 less than what's left.
That gives me a VERY, dumb idea. SOOOOO
LIVE NOW TILL THE END OF THE YEAR CAUSE WHY NOT www.twitch.tv/eroaxee

I haven't even done this here yet! I'm trying #jinglejam this year.
Got a bunch of charity donating (and a TON of games for it) over on Tiltify! tilt.fyi/keoWgDJ6Av
I'm also streaming on Twitch right now for it (twitch.tv/eroaxee) with some shenanigans. Including 3D Models for JingleJam Donations
Probably bad timing to ask right after this, but for reference do you know if you hit/did something specific.
Cause, could be, wrong but the output reads like issues I've run into with import scripts and setting the "owner" property (or not setting it). Yet the history mentions "Set Mesh"?
A screenshot highlighting the "Face Orientation" overlay checkbox in Blender. Located at the top right of the 3D Viewport under the drop down menu beside the 2 overlapping circles icon used to toggle Overlays.
Unless I'm misremembering Blender doesn't have backface culling on by default, so that's probably why it looks fine there.
Also there's a lot of ways to accidentally mess up the normals, to make it easier to check you can turn on the "Face Orientation" overlay.
To avoid the overhead of Triplanar mapping you can also use "Correct Face Attributes" in Blender for a similar effect. It doesn't work on everything, but it'll "extrapolate" out your UVs.
Plus it'll import straight into Godot if you use a gltf/glb file. (.blend is inconsistent in my experience)
This is so cool! Are you planning to put the code up anywhere so people can peek at it? Cause this seems so nice for putting UI in 3D, which is something I've wanted for absolute AGES. AND keep failing at. Even tried recreating it, and got *something* (it was worse a bit ago so progress)
Ah okay, sorry you mentioned getting shaders from nodes so I thought you'd messed with it and managed it somehow.
Alright I have to check, but I thought Godot couldn't import full shaders from Blender? Did I miss something and there's a way to do that? Cause damn would that be nice.
finished up the model and textures for the ball socket for my #puzzlegame! all hand painted in krita (2k size 🙃) and wow do i need a better workflow for that but for now we truck along 🤠

Ah gotcha that makes sense. I'm the same with Blender personally. I make as much as I can there, then bang my head on import scripts to make it work lol
Makes sense, throwing some noise on things always seems helpful for breaking them up.
Huh, I'm gonna be honest I assumed the remesh would come out worse. It never tends to go well for me.
Definitely gonna have to use this for some environments now. Thanks!
Alright I know you say don't ask, but I *have* to know how you use GIMP for game development. Using things for what they're not intended for is one of my favorite things.
This is so cool! Also so helpful, I've been trying to figure out how to do something like this for ages. Cause interiors drive me crazy.
What's the wireframe like though? I debated booleans but I always worry it'll mess it up too much.
Figured out a rough Blender workflow to make my igloo interiors! I can make arbitrary room shapes and cutouts very easily.

But snow for 3/4s of the year is the best!!
Snow is the best part of fall though!
colorful key splash art for Project Dragon- a group of adventurers (a musical ocarina golem, a rider mounted on a wyvern, a dimunutive cat person and a pet pinoceros) crest a hill over a sun-drenched landscape with billowing clouds and distant ruins. In the sky above, a character composed of constellations spreads their 6 arms and welcomes them to the world.
Just before things started to nosedive on twitter, I posted a thread that walked through the massive body of work I did over the last three years (on an inspiring team) on the cancelled Project Dragon aka Everhaven.
For posterity I reckon I'll repost that thread, piece by piece, over here ✨

Ah okay so it's essentially a state change at a certain point in the animation. Interesting... I'll have to mess with that. Thanks!
I've used Atlas Textures for UI before and if nothing else, they're a *pain* to setup. Each part of the atlas needs it's own resource that has it's own values set by hand, at least in my experience (could probably automate it). I've just moved around UVs, albeit for a simpler problem
This looks awesome!
I always spend ages tinkering with animation transitions for this stuff, that or root motion. How do you handle the transitions ?
Well #introduction time I guess. I'm Eroax (or EroAxee depending).
I'm a self taught game dev and 3D artist who uses #Blender3d for ABSOLUTELY everything. For example, did you know Blender has a video editor ?
I'm mostly focusing on learning animation + working on streaming integrations.
