Blender FTW!!!
If i ever become a millionaire im giving half of that to blender, they deserve everything!
Well if they deserve everything maybe give them the whole million (◠‿・)—☆
If you are a millionaire you probably deserve that much anyways
Liar
Get to work then
I’d rather grab a fly on a horse bucket
so excited to play with Eevee Next!!!
Very rarely does the industry standard happen to be Open Source, but Blender is one of these cases!
Blender is not the industry standard. but its slowly becoming it which is great
Its not the industry standard although its used more and more at the current time.
Industry standard is still some 30-year-old software
blender ain’t got no support, so don’t expect anyone big to be using it in production environments (unless they want to get fired asap)
@@Napertpeople are using it extensively in production, even at studios that are hardcore on Maya, blender is used in the early stages to sketch out things
@@Napert Even big studios that relies on maya also use blender in their pipeline
What a time to be alive!
Yesh, what an amazing and great time to be alive and use blender.
Suspicious second author name there in the paper at 2:08 😉
Came to the comments to see if anyone else noticed. Dude is humble! Didn’t even mention it hahaha
Haha so humble
There is no excuse not to learn anything in this day and age.
Universities need to stop gatekeeping degrees.
@@drmarioschannel I think they are talking about how you can find courses on YouTube and stuff that compare to ones found on universities. Literally you can learn so much without paying anything because it seems like there is tons of free resources online for any topic you want to learn.
@@drmarioschannel what are they gatekeeping? If you don’t want to go to a public university there are some private ones out there
Ok without a degree and or work history your resume is poopypaper. Today they dont even need to shred it they just never see it because of ai sorts it to the bottom and their are many many applicants! Education should be free to anyone who is willing to learn otherwise what will we do when it costs more to do a job than the average person can pay. Total Societal Collapse. Cant go to work if you cant fix your car. Back to Feudalism we go!
@@drmarioschannelyou don’t need a degree for 3d artists
Blender is at the moment only bright beacon for artists with good intentions.
Used Blender 18 years ago as kid, it was so awesome back then, it is beyond impressive nowadays. Probably in the top 3 best complex open source software ever created.
That’s roughly when i used it too, made a couple simple animations. It was already so cool, but it sure has been quite a ride occasionally checking its progress along the years
What is the other two?
@@riufqLinux and Unreal Engine
@@riufq I guess linux kernel and wordpress
when I first used it, I was disappointed because it felt very low quality because I had a taste of autodesk products. after the release of version 3, I switched over and version 4s are only getting better and better.
“Loved. every. minute. of it.”
I can hear the pain.
I feel a new doughnut coming on!
With Godot 4.3 release on the horizon as well, it’s becoming a good time to be a fan of open-source game development tools!
2:54 I’ve never scene a Cycles viewport so smooth and clean before.
Same, and you see in the UI it’s cycles, must be a high-end card, maybe accelerated
You don’t need a super high end card. Just a card with dedicated RT cores (eg RTX)
has been looking like that since version 2.8 which came out years ago.
ME TOO EVEN WITH A RTX 3060 I DONT GET A VIEWPORT THAT GOOD maybe my scences are just unoptimized wait i think its the new blur noise thing
@@DennisSchmitz Nahh, mor like since Cycles X, introduced on 3.0
As a long time Blender user, it makes me so proud to see what this opensource application has become over the decades. I really lucked out choosing Blender as my main 3D tool, & it just keeps getting better & better. Also so happy that Two Minute Papers appreciated it so much too, thanks for keeping other people in the loop of what is new in Blender with each new major iteration =D
Semantically this is only a minor iteration 😉
(but with major improvements!)
Same. I don’t know why anyone tortures themselves with anything other than Blender except Houdini. Other tools are ancient. If you need some special specific thing you’ve got better chances of either finding a plugin or making your own. Houdini obviously is in a class of its own but is less approachable.
I hope to see someone do for BIM and CAD what Blender has done for vis. AutoDesk’s weaseling is corrupt.
i was a maya user for almost 15 years and now i m blender user and im not going back!👌👌👌
How? I cannot stomach using blender, nothing makes sense. I am a long time 3dsmax user since 2005,
@@Dead_Goatit makes sense, you have to approach it as something new. Max doesn’t make much sense to blender users at first.
Honestly I think it is much easier to go from blender to the other tools than to go the other way around.
smart man. i learned 3d modeling in Solidworks for my engineering degree. after college i had to find an alternative. tried learning blender, maya, and 3ds max at the same time. got lost in maya and 3ds max… currently have about 3,000 projects and renders in blender and dont think ill look at anything else
@@Dead_Goat u need to stop treating it as 3dsmax, you need to learn it from scratch
All this and vulkan backend too.
Props to the team, and go donate (if you can). Blender is free but not cheap.
Greetings from Hungary btw.
I use blender at work and am in the process of updating our whole system to take advantage of some of the new features that come with it. We are currently using a very old version so it plays nice with all our plugins, but as of last week was able to get all of them up and running. I can’t wait to use it to make some new incredible models.
3:04 Thank you for praising my work! It means a lot 🙌
4:50 AS A YTER THIS IS THE BEST THING TO BE ADDED TO BLENDER
I just realized that probably out of anyone making videos about blender you might be the most qualified to make a video titled “Best settings for EEVEE next”
