why are the default g9 normal maps so fucking flat? there's no curvature of the mesh in them at all they're basically just skin detail textures
>>
is there a guide to converting daz characters with diffeomorphic to blender for use with mustardui?
>>
>>982321
easy answer is that because G9 suck
longer answer is that curvature detail driven completely through HD morphs and subdiv and only micro detail is stored in normals. Which makes G9 suck for low poly stuff ofc.

it's amazing how many shitty ideas they put into g9

>animate on twos
>faster motions on ones
so how does one define a fast motion then? where is the threshold?
>>
>>982301
>where is the threshold?
When an action on twos has absolutely no in-betweens before the start/end, it'd probably be a good idea to switch to ones.
Likewise, when an action needs a bit more to sell it, like with some extra anticipation/easing and you can't quite make it flow right on twos, use ones.
There's not a hard threshold, you just know it when you need it. As shitty an answer as that is.

it's not perfect but it's the best 2D imitation i have seen yet. Once you watch it enough times, like >>978226 says, you start noticing the parts that are 3D anyway, like consistent line quality on pose movements or the background, but the camerawork and usage of 3D as more of a, in a way, drawing medium for each frame rather than a complete animation tool still hold up to sell the illusion long enough to make it god-tier.

is this supposed to be "SOVL", unironically?

or is it supposed to be "forced soul", but ironically?

looking like a low effort shitpost, it seems to be the latter. which is pretty meta t.b.h

so thats kinda based. who say "forced soul" cant be based?

The only way to truly create retro CGI is by using period accurate hardware and software, anything else is forced soul from coping zoomers.

Ladies and Gentlemen of /3/,

The next 4 upcoming years, i will spend every single day in the production for the pilot-episode of a new Berserk adaptation.
>Narrative - 100 % faithful to the Manga
>Art Style - inspired by Netflix Arcane (pic related)

Without any doubt: this project is a Behemoth, but i am dead serious about the production.

Truth to be told, i am lacking experience, which is why i created this thread in the first place.
I would like to know your opinion on certain topics - Roughly spoken about project-management, planing and execution.

I am not asking for direct involvement in the project - at least not until i proved myself with regular updates and progress that i am the real deal.

Each polygon must be assigned a bone with a zone. Using Morph means you have the brush individually wrapped around it and causing the image you see. You need to fix the model to only have the necessary parts (head, chest, arms, etc). So you should have 7 model parts on the right side of the panel, not this >>982267

I made product renderings for a client and it went great but now the client is asking for an animation like vid related.

I tried the (newly updated) particle simulation in C4D to try to create a body of liquid and also tried xParticles but both runs like shit on my M1 MacBook. I tried my best to optimize the simulations following multiple tutorials online but I cant get semirealistic results.

Now that I am thinking about it I might be vastly overcomplicating things since I basically just need to raise the product from a plane that somewhat sticks to the object.

Does anyone have an idea for a method I could use to achieve the effect in a much simpler way? I must be missing something.

VFX just means you do it as compositing in a videoediting software. You render out your mesh and a depth pass and inside your video editing software you'd set up layers to blend it all together to make a transition between your CGI and your other layer using your Z-depth.

I work real-time stuff so I haven't touch any videoeditor in years but 'adobe premiere' and 'after effects' was what I used back in the day and it was really easy to just jump in and use those as it's basically a photoshop for videos and I already knew my way around photoshop inside out.

There's probably better suites available, all the VFX tryhards used different software back then too but I can't recall their name.

Why did you guys choose 3D over drawing? Is it because drawing it's too difficult?

I've been thinking if I like drawing or 3D more and what to invest more time on, because with 2D you can also animate
