Description
A screen shot of my Blender - doing the Benz
The suspension is 'mostly done' (just needs the actual springs'.
The rims and tires are mine from a previous concept... (I like them so I'm using them - that and the one from this car are complex...
Next will be some of the body and such....

Thanks, I should be getting the dash done by tomorrow - I'll do a different camera angle on it in order to show the details that I'm putting into it.

I cant wait to see it. Is this project thing a new feature? How its sorted. I hadnt seen it until I looked.

The new folders are new.... and we get to name them ourselves

Thats awesome. Very cool indeed.

I was one of MANY - that have been asking for them for a long time - they really could not add them before now as the old servers, I don't think they would have handled them - I've already sorted my art into folders

I think I may now too. Itll certainly make it easier to navigate!

Of course, I've already found issues of some peoples galleries not showing at all...

Really? Wow.
Where do you go to sort your gallery into albums?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You view your own gallery - it'll be on the left side of the screen == you rename the 'blank' one that is there and you can create new ones and name them as well

I have to start over from scratch ... after I fully uninstall and re-install Blender - somethings just not right with it...
Thanks for the comment

Thank you, I have the hood, headlamps and front amber lights done... hopefully I'll able to get the front end and front fenders done today...

nah I did all this from 202 objects (mostly cubes)

Extruded a lot or just moved points a lot?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hmm a lot of both, and even more subdivide multi and loop subdivide ...

This is the most complex thing I've made yet - and when I'm done with it - it will have more verts/faces than anything I've created to date.

Coool!
I'm definitely keeping an eye out for that!

Thank you - I've restarted the front body mesh 3 times now - and about to restart a 4th time - its SO 'curved' that it's making it hard to get it to 'shape' right.... 
-- runs to play tetris for inspiration...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I definitely understand that it's hard getting the shape right part!

Try doing it without actually being able to see 3d (I'm nearsited in one eye and farsited in the other - I don't see out of both eyes at the same time).....

So, that cannot be corrected with glasses?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
not in my case - I do however wear glasses, but they are more for glare reduction (I have a sensitivity to bright lights)

Ahh so this is Blender. Strangely...i've never heard of it

There are a lot of resources available for Blender such a as Python Script - if your using Windows they are easy to setup, Linux a little more difficult .... Also, RafRay rendering is fairly nice

I know some Python..and i know now that Maya 8.5 uses that along with MEL
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It uses Python version 2.4 (well the latest version of Blender does anyway)
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Yes it does! (it's smaller and a lot skinnier)

I'm surprised your the only one...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ha! But at least you know I look at your works closely. By the way... MakeHuman came out with a Linux/Ubuntu version. It's output is obj. Sourceforge.net

I don't know about the shader, I'm finding out if it's just Windows. It's a zip file, so it probably is.

Linux can open Zips

[link] Here's the shader, which turns out to be a renderer. Ever hear of pixie? Looking at the example render of a MakeHuman model, it looks pretty good. I don't have the right framework, so I'll have to make the install through linux, which also means that I'll have to download the MakeHuman Linux version. No biggie.

I just spent the last 3 hours upgrading Kubuntu from Feisty to whatever they are calling the newest version.... Now I'm having some issues with Blender and pretty much anything that uses Python...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Did they do a new Python to upgrade, as well? Or maybe Glade would work for you. Don't I remember that being a gtk render environment?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is indeed gtk rendering environment (which is why Windows users have to install gtk before they can install Blender or The Gimp... (Gimp uses gtk as well...) - but Python is how the program manipulates the verts ... let me look and see what version of Python I have now ... so many upgrade at one time... I don't see where to see the Python version....

In your blender program folder, you'll have the python dll it will be python25.dll, at least that's the version I have. Which I assume is version 2.5, since I seem to have 24 for Poser, and 23 for open office and PaintShop.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
no dll in Linux... that's a Windows filetype (owned by Microsoft..)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Right, but Linux still uses it's equivalent. A reference file to determine a program's interaction with the system.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
erm yeah - they are used similar to the way a hardware driver would be and reside in: /usr/local/bin/ the files within /bin are a text type file - editable with a simple text editor...

So, the programs all read the same python? Or are there separate folders? I would check myself, but I have Windows open, with a bunch of windows open. I still haven't gotten Wine to work, pretty much at all. Speaking of drivers and dlls.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Same Python...
You will need those windows DLL's for WINE - but not all of them (most of the programs that need them will tell you what you need... typically it's for the video or sound for the game).
