@GiantCowFilms interesting. You mean cgi work is integrated in motion ?

@GiantCowFilms sorry, is VFx not more like Nuke and less blender ?

@GiantCowFilms Visual Effects, is that not Nuke and that kind of compositie

Hi .... If you don't mind asking ... What are the most relevant CG industries//business ? I mean work you could do with blender ? I can think of gaming, architecture visualisation, product visualisation, .... But what else ?

@cegaton hi, I noticed this post blender.stackexchange.com/questions/2558/… also had your attention. In the comments on the first answer I asked a question. Do you have the answer (I am not sure if wchargin is still a regular visitor of this forum) ?

Recently I visit Artstation quite frequently. This is supposed to be the place to show off you work. I must say that I am sort of puzzled .... Lots of monsters, girls with big boobs, guns, .....is this why those people learn 3D tools ? Feels like Kindergarten to me ...

@aliasguru you are right, it works. I have to install the zipped file (and my MAC does unzip the file when downloading ....)

@cegaton I will have a good read to finally grasp the "how to texture a sphere". But really funny that I have not encountered any problems when texturing a sphere with maps of the earth

@cegaton aha ... I did some work with maps of the planet earth. I used those NASA textures and had no problems with texturing. But I guess these NASA textures have been equirectangular

@troy_s watched the Blender Guru video. I must say he did a good job by explaining the benefits of Filmic without going into the depths of the concepts behind it. But I feel great that I had the opportunity to sniff on the concepts behind it. Thanks

@GiantCowFilms hi .... you told me the other day that when you have "generate UV's" checked when you add a UV sphere that you in fact have uv unwrapped (at least, that is how I have understood it). Now I have posted this question blender.stackexchange.com/questions/74159/… ... any ideas ?

@aliasguru yes, I download the GitHub file and then install the image_calculate_fstop_range.py file. but after installing there is no addon. Maybe I do something stupid (I am good in that)

@aliasguru I mean when you download the .py file from GitHub and then try to "install from file" ...

@aliasguru hi. some while ago there was a problem with installing this calculate- F-Stop-range addon. I now try again to install it as addon in 2.78b but nothing happens ? is there a trick in installing the addon ?

bye bye :)

I think you are very smart :)

have a nice evening

thanks a lot for your coaching !!!

ok that is a good guideline

ah ... ok... you mean that you have a good idea about texturing the model and that is guideline for seams ?

when looking for how to set seams are there any good guidelines ?

yes thanks a lot !!! I think your advice worked

yes I mean remove the triangle

but best thing I can do is learn

ok I wil try. I have still little experience with this whole uv unwrapping

if i remove that triangle is then the problem solved ?

it looks like a "double line"

hi .. sorry, it lasted a while

Somebody is at my door ... I am back as soon as I can

I think that the balcony should be a separate island

aha

DID I mess up things ?

now I understND

ok

and what is the difference between CTRL + L and just L ?

I have found that Delimit by Seam. Bu what does it exactly do ?

could you perhaps set the seams where you think they should be ?

thanks. I now see the problem. should I make loop cuts in the balcony ?

I must have sand in my eyes but I cannot find this "delimit by seam option". could you show me ?

I removed the doubles and that helped. But somehow the side walls and back wall are still connected with the ceiling and I think the ceiling and those walls should be two uv islands. I updated the bled file. How make the walls and ceiling two unconnected islands ?

I was thinking .... is maybe Constraint Radius not more self-explanatory than Search Radius ?

hi .... just giving your lecture another read :)

bye for now

I like it that you made it part of the Physics

I want also try to do some PR

yes, the possibilities are fascinating

thank you for your time !!!!

this really helped

thanks a lot .... I now can go further

haha
