Is this due to blender only importing certain formats file extensions ? Could you have a look and see which image files fail ? Are they .bmp .png.jpg? Again thank you. -- I'm planning on installing Blender sometime soon as it looks like a very good program for animation and modelling I've been using Sketchup Maya + TM Twinmotion to create small animations and would like a more professional look . possibly moving onto either Blender+ after effects or unreal engine I have some animations on my CZcams channel all models are Sketchup rendered in Twinmotion

    • @DionMoult
      @DionMoult Před 8 dny

      The reason is because the minority of users are modeling and generating drawings. The majority are actually consuming existing models made from proprietary software, then enhancing, auditing, visualising, editing, existing models (also, that's my day job). User priorities drive development. So Blender is actually surprisingly used in a huge number of mega projects in the world in this sense, whilst simultaneously we struggle to do a house :)

    Great tip, not a new feature, but this should be the default one without any shortcuts, just straight-up ready when we click the walls or any element, to be honest. It's also important to mention that this tip came from @DionMoult in your last video comments session.

    • @blender3darchitect
      @blender3darchitect Před 9 dny

      Yes, this feature is under development for some time. I saw it in the OSArch forums about two weeks ago. It finally made to the official release.

    • @DionMoult
      @DionMoult Před 8 dny

      It will become the default drawing method for walls in the next release. There is still work to be done to make it handle editing existing walls, handling curved walls, showing wall previews, not just a line... and then can slowly roll it out to horizontal layered elements (e.g. slabs), and so on. The best way to help with development is to 1) report bugs / feature wishlists / usability / QoL stuff on the Github issue tracker 2) help participate on community forums to help other users so that we get a multiplier effect of community support. The best way to speed up development is to 1) join and write code or 2) chip in with some money so we can then hire coding. This wall tool would still not be around if we didn't have sponsorship, for example.

    • @blender3darchitect
      @blender3darchitect Před 9 dny

      You are right. If you look close, they don't touch. The problem is that Blender uses Polygons as circles. They are not curves. Since Polygons use straight edges with lots of segments, usually you won't have a perfect intersection point. The solution would be: 1. Use a Mesh Circle with lots of sides 64+ to increase the chance of an intersection. 2. Edit the point close to the tangent to make them intersect
