Fluent realy become so powerful, you are doing great work!
Thank you 😊
LOL the full screen subtitles help :)
Fluent is the must have Addon No.1. Thx so much for your work.
Thank you Dietmar
The function to import SVG is fabulous! I never tire of saying it! You saved me days of editing, thank you! again!!!!
I love these videos with the new functions. Always relaxed and funny. And easy to follow :)
Thank you guys for all your hard work to make this possible!
Amazing work, and I am so thankful for listening and adding the Taper. It will be great when baking bigger normal details!!
Yes, the first request was for that.
Excellent tut/demo. Very helpful.
The style of the video, the presentation, plus the wonderful accent accompanying the enthusiasm alone are worth the watch! But also great explanations!
Thank you Harry 😉
I love your product! Thanks
Great features and cool presentation!
Thank you Daniel.
You're a pretty cool dude... Thanks for your amazing contributions to blender!
He is back ... love it Rudy
Thank you SolidMotion :)
This is more intuitive than HardOps. Thank you for your hard work!!
I think you mean than boxcutter? all of these addons have their own very practical use cases even if some overlap. my main problem with Fluent is that it uses many hotkeys that I have assigned to other addons, while hardOps and boxcutter respect what there's in the community, and the community already builds addons around the ones that boxcutter and hardops have. I hope Fluent finds a way to be used on QWERTY keyboards and with no overlapping hotkeys with other tools. We're already very confused by hundreds of addons.
Excellent presentation. I wish you would do more!
I already start the preparation of the next video :)
He' Rudy, Super update and always a pleasure to listen to your Explanations. I Love Fluent.🐱🏍
Thank you Marco :)
@@CGThoughts You're welcome
great updates, become Fluent is a great option already like it, I often work with curves bevel geometry, now it's much faster, very helpful, thank you very much!
Glad to help you :)
Impressive! Congratulations on great work! /Pet from Discord
fluent made my hard surfaces much cleaner and easier to make, it's like having the cake and it it too, love it
Incredible
Great work! One thing I miss is cable collision simulation, but It's okay with the ability of drawing it
Amazing work!, congratulations!
Thank you Matias
@@CGThoughts I just bought the addon in blendermarket, I am already understanding it little by little, I was surprised how easy it is to use it, and I did not want to stop congratulating you, since I am working on a project and what I needed to do I did in such a short time, that It made me laugh, yesterday I spent 2 hours doing the same process, thank you!
Amazing🔥
Thanks :)
Rien à dire, juste topissime 👍
Merci beaucoup 👍
Absolutely amazing! Thinking about buying it. but I think you mixed up the odd and even. 60 is an even number not odd ;)
i figured as issue with (circular array) when i try to align rotation to an object (hover + X) and that object not centered in the middle of scene .
try urself to locate an obj in randome place then align rotation to it.
Super!
Thanks
I can see that english is not easy for you but I thank you SO MUCH for learning it since I can't learn french (I am assuming you are French)! Great tool! Downloaded this video to reference ... it is that good!
ahah yes, my english isn't fluent (^_^) but I work it
@@CGThoughts Ha ha ha ha!!!
@@CGThoughts don´t worry about that, I am brazilian and I am not that fluent in english but I can understand almost 100% of what you say. congratulations on your great work. I have hard ops and boxcutter I can say, fluent is much easier to use, very intuitive. keep it up. thank´s.
Nice work. Can you say the keys as you do things? It helps. The key screen record at the bottom is hard to see and when you pause CZcams, You cannot see for the first few seconds while the playback control buttons show
Be good to change Bevel numbers while cutting.
Be good to have control of Array (location of snap to other object, cursor, ...)
Keep up the great work, Fluent is becoming my main tool for first cuts
Hi Ruby, I just tried that circular array on the 8 segment cylinder and it does not flip it vertically like yours, they flip horizontally on the most recent version of Fluent: Power Trip
Hi, Rudy, I just purchased your product and I’m a little confused. Does this add on work with Spheres or any mesh from the “add mesh” menu? Every time I perform a cut or boolean on a sub divided sphere, the mesh becomes wrinkled and distorted. Please help, Thanks.
Hi , I have fluent 1.6.2 for Mac but circular array around the object (using X) does not make the same as your video
At 18:25 you said that Slice+holding Shift creates Decalmachine slices. I couldn't reproduce it, Is it disabled in the current version?
Can you help when Fluent 1.6.2 doesn't work, so the edit doesn't appear in edit mode?
Hello, How can I make or download updates to version 1.6? I have purchased version 1.5.
With Blender 2.93.5 and Fluent 1.6.2, no exercise will work.
Editing in Object Mode is not the same as switching to edit mode.
Or should they be the same forms
Or parts are completely missing.
I just got this addon, and can't work out how to add materials to chains. I can add them to wires and pipes but not chains. can anyone help me?
verry impressive tool, but what about topology ?
At 2:33, pressing X is not the result in the video, and I also noticed that the axial direction failed all the time
me too!
I bought Fluent but I got Fluent 1.6 not 1.6.2 not sure if it's just not written or what.
The fluent tools are very cool, but I think UX wise there is room for improvement. the workflow is rather confusing and the fact I have to left click and hold to get the menu on many things is a not very convenient. sometimes you want to cancel the menu opening but you can't and it just commit the operation.
Sometimes you need more room to move your mouse but you can't because you get to the edge of the screen and so on.
Sometimes the notifications / tips window will not go away and than it will overlap the new notification / tip...
So again very cool tools but need some improvement on the UX front
on the other hand maybe I just need to learn how to work with the fluent tools better...
Thanks for your feedback. I keep it for next updates.
Kindly make a video with new update
The only plugin that replaced boxcutter in my workflow.
As I understand it, Fluent seems to replace both BoxCutter and HardOps. Is that right? Also seems to replace Grid Modeler which I also own.
@@mixchief I still use hardops for some things, but I like fluent more than boxcutter because it's easier to use and i really love the grid!
just so you know, view layers and scenes do not work with fluent, is this intended?
i'm from indonesia. how do i buy this add on please?
how do i use paypal?
hi，is there some way to simple topo your model？such like the surface slice I need a flat face to became a lowpoly. Topo is a shit work
Can all these objects created with Fluent be animated?
yes of course u can, but first apply all the modifiers
7:45 not fluent english
8:26 BECOME FLUENT -awesomeness happens-
FFS show how to get the Pie menu in fluent, add an option to the slide out menu, link to docs in it. I've spent 30 mins trying to figure out the very first thing I need to know in this video which you can't seem to show or explain!
_Geeez_ Your English is even worse than NK! _lol_ But *_GREAT_* addon!
Rudy is your english fail can try SPANISH BETTER jajajaa
