Really really useful on me! thank you for sharing most detail tutorial, especially the prepare step of the "text" before boolean and bevel after boolean, I thought that was my fail reason when I boolean and bevel objects.
It shouldn't be this complicated but you made it so much easier :P watched your older video first which wasn't as helpful. I'm very thankful you made this update !!!
very helpful tutorials.good job sir . which blender version do you used for this tutorial? i started learning blender version 3.2.2 . if i update blender version 3.4.1 is good for me or i learn first using same version. which is good for me ? I'm sorry for my questions.
I'm glad you liked our tutorial. We used 3.4 version for this tutorial although it works with previous or later versions as well. There are not many differences between 3.4.1 or 3.2 if you are new to Blender, you can use either of them. But if your hardware is not a big issue, I strongly recommend you to always use the latest version that is available from Blender site because even if the functional changes are less, the menu options can drastically change between two versions. So it is definitely better to start with the latest version and keep working with the latest version always. You will remain up to date. In case your hardware does not support, you can stay with 3.2, not a problem.
Add a material to your text object. Before you add the boolean modifier to the box, select the box and go to its material slots. Add a new material slot and select the text material in this new slot. Now add the boolean modifier to the box as shown in the tutorial. The engraved text will have its own material instead of the box color.
@@norenii935 Can you please send your blend file to 5minblender@gmail.com so that we can check what is exactly causing it to not work? It will be easier to investigate.
In the boolean modifier, please expand the section called Solver Options and enable Self Intersection and/or Hole Tolerance and/or both. If it still does not work, switch over to the Fast mode and check if it resolves the issue. If still not solved, please let us know.
@@FlameChampionLuc Can you please send your blend file to us (5minblender@gmail.com) so that we can look into it and suggest a better fix? Your model may have some special geometry that needs a different handling.
You need to first convert your logo into a 3D object. Then the rest of the process will remain the same. To convert the logo into a 3D object you can check this tutorial 👉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-12YuQj48sr0.html
@@5MinutesBlender Your welcome and must say you are one of the easiest videos to follow on here for Blender... About %99 of my learning comes from here :)
Some models (long text or hi-poly) can a long time, I mean a minute or two is ok. Did it run for say 10 minutes? Then it is not normal. The front face is not so important, it takes time if the topology of the text is not good. Once possible solution would be to use geometry nodes to create your text object. We also made a tutorial on that 👉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5SRiESHQkmY.html
Before you export, you can simply delete the object that is hidden. Keep a copy of the original blend file in case you want to preserve that hidden part somewhere (and later you can append it to the current blend file).
Do I need the latest stable version atm: 3.4.1 to do this? I ask because Geometry Nodes is VERY sensitive to Blender version given Blender Studio changes things or behaviors so often and/or dramatically it really does make a difference... There are times in the Blenderverse because it's so obtuse and opaque, if something fails I can't determine if it was me or Blender... (I assume it's me until proven otherwise, but that's most likely because my mom was mean.)
This technique works throughout all the recent versions of Blender. You are correct that Geometry Nodes have been going through a roller coaster ride, but the other parts of Blender are relatively stable since version 3.
@@5MinutesBlender I just was directed to a version of 3.5 by Samuel Sullins that actually can render (1 test so don't hold me to it...) from NOVEMBER 23rd! It's the only one that has a cache tick box in the sim output node. Theorectically, you can try to do some tuts now with 3.5 because there is ONE old version that kinda works. Otherwise it's wait until June 2023, fingers crossed that Europe and/or the US doesn't get nuked by that time... forget about the Blender Studio guys figuring it out for 3.6 I think was the latest prediction...
@@jeffreyspinner9720 Yes, I am using the latest build of 3.5 for the current tutorials (planned for release in the next few weeks). But I did not get that Nov 23rd thing. I am using the latest builds that are being released on a daily basis by the Blender team and no major hiccups yet, I only encountered some minor bugs here & there.
@@5MinutesBlender Can you render anything with those most up to date 3.5 builds? I can't. If you or anyone else can't render, what's the point? I can't use it in my Machinima...
after I merge by distance, the hole in the d in "Adams" is not hollow anymore. i am going to 3d print this and dont know how to fix. i can email a screenshot if needed.
Hi, there can be several ways to solve it depending upon what end result you want to achieve. But in this case, when you do merge by distance, I suggest you deselect the vertices that make that inner hole of d. That will ensure that the merge has no effect on that hole. If you want to send us the file, send the blend file. We can check and suggest a better technique if any.
Bro, please tell me which blender version are you using? I have installed blender 3.4.1. I watch your country's 3D comparison video, but my blender has a different rotation. Tell me if you have set your blender. I have shared pics in your email. Please see it and reply to me. Please I shall really thank full to you.
We used 3.4 version but it should work same with any Blender version, nothing version specific for 3D comparison videos. The viewport orientation may be different, it won't matter. You can rotate the viewport as you wish. I did receive your email but there are no pics and no attachments in it.
It depends on the topology of your object/text. There are other ways to achieve the same result that we are trying to do through Limited Dissolve, but it needs a manual inspection. You can send your half-finished blend file (before doing a limited dissolve) to 5minblender@gmail.com so that we can verify it and suggest a suitable solution. Thanks!
@@5MinutesBlender Thank you so much for your response and willingness to help! The "All Boundaries" option was checked (I think it's checked by default, as I launched Blender for the first time to follow your tutorial). Unchecking that box fixed the issue, and I was able to follow the rest of the tutorial perfectly!
is there a way where we can see ALL the modifiers (boolean, or others) applied to ANY object in your scene/project? So that we may delete, or edit, them directly? I had applied many subdivision modifiers to to various curved objects in order to make the curves actually look curvy and not "edged". prob is that I didn't know what I was doing I guess (I added values 5 to 6 for the Viewport, while kept the Render ones to 2) and Blender kept crashing. Before I knew it my .blend file was nearly 2 GB (HUGE...) and the app kept crashing (and I kept reopening it an opening the auto-saved file). I ASSUME that the modifiers are what made my .blend file so huge. Right? So, if there's a way where we can open up our .blend file in blender, see a list of all modifiers in use, delete - or edit - them directly from there (and hopefully 'lighten" my project up a bit)?
We can see all the modifiers in the Modifier tab, no? But yeah, if you apply a modifier - then it creates a permanent change and it disappears from that list. In that case I don't think there is a way to know which modifiers were added or applied.
@@5MinutesBlender Thank you!! :) A bit irrelevant to this video, but something I'm struggling to do today:P : Do you know if there's a way to change the material of the INSIDE walls/faces of an object (eg a cube) WITHOUT affecting the outside faces' materials?? *Whenever I have "entered" the cube and applied different materials to the interior face/s, it also changes the corresponding face/s outside it too :( :(
@@nounix We just made a tutorial on this exact subject 😂 But it is lined up for release after couple of weeks. You can do that by mixing two BSDF shaders using a Mix Shader. Add a Geometry Node from the Input group and connect its Backfacing output to the FAC input of the Mix Shader. So the outside face will get one BSDF and the inside face will get another BSDF. Effectively the object will show two different materials for the inside and the outside.
Hi, as far as I could check it works fine for all the latest versions of Blender including 4.x as well. So what is not working for you exactly? If you followed this tutorial step by step, can you give me a timestamp from this video where you got a different result? Otherwise you can send your blend file to us at 5minblender@gmail.com so that we can verify what is missing. Thank you for watching!
You need to hide the original text in render, or you can remove it as well if you have finalized everything. Then the text won't show up in the render output, only the engraves form will display.
Since there are many holes in the surface, you need to use Arc (Geometry - Inner) and switch off Loop Slide. Usually this is a cause of shading problems.
Hello 🤗 Please I want more advanced blender lessons because it is required of me at the university Tutorial for design a Scene and animation this a scene Please 🙏🥺 I need advanced lessons in the Blender program because it is required of me at the university. Please provide lessons such as moving a scene and designing a scene with new ideas, please ❤️💝🌼
Yes, theoretically it should be possible with an image too. But to have it work with an image, you need to convert your image into a mesh and add a solidify modifier to add some thickness to it. Use the Exact mode with hole tolerance and self intersection turned on for better results.
@@dmvlogs6664 Ok, but what is not working bro? I could not understand where you got stuck. Is Blender itself not working, or this method is not working, or rendering is not happening.... what exactly is the problem, please explain.
Okay, I am not so sure about the difference between them. Googled it, probably they are closely related or somewhat similar. But anyway, thanks for letting me know about this 👍
Need to see your model to understand the root cause of the problem and to suggest a solution. That limited dissolve is there only to help the bevel operation later. You can skip it as well and proceed. If you later discover an issue during the bevel operation, you can use our bevel shader nodes instead (we have published a tutorial on this today). If you send your model to 5minblender@gmail.com we can investigate if the root cause of the problem can be removed.
