In this instant meshes tutorial (also in blender 2.8) we go over how to take any high poly 3d model and automatically retopologize it into a quad-based low poly model.

Refreshing to see tutorials where stuff is actually explained and not rushed in a minute.

@HoloTheDrunk 4 года назад

"Rushed in a minute" is fine by me, it gets all the important info across without any unnecessary fluff around it, and then it's the viewer's job to experiment and therefore learn way better than by just following a long tutorial.

@pocketblue 4 года назад

Ideally there should be both options but now we are just being picky and ungrateful

@HoloTheDrunk 4 года назад

@@pocketblue Agreed, both get the point across, the format is just a matter of preference :)

Project managers think that retopologising is pressing a key and having a retopologised mesh that retains 100% of the original quality

Thanks for this. This seems like a no brainer addition to the workflow when turning sculpts into something easier to handle.

@johnsmith56920 3 года назад

An absolute must have. Thanks a lot for this. It works exactly as you said it would and helped me to get a lot of my old models in working order. Like every beginner I had plenty of rather good models with way too many polygons and now I can use and animate them. Congrats.

Should decimate before exporting, will still preserve any level of detail that would matter for retopo.

FYI in the beginning of your video, you confuse vertex count with face count. If you are there are 4 verts per quad, so 7.66K verts = 30.64K quads

@caseydewitt6236 4 года назад

So what exactly is the difference between orientation field and position field in this program?

@TheMightyGinkgo 5 лет назад

Does it change the UV mapping when you convert i, or does it retain the same map as the high res?

@simonzhang7008 4 года назад

hows is that even possible? u completly rearange the faces and reduces them

@RyudoFanel 4 года назад

Why would someone create the uv map for the high res model ^^'? One of the reason you retopo is for easier uv mapping....

@cloudlove1 Год назад

@RyudoFanel how are you going to bake the normals from low to high? Don't the uvs have to be identical?

@selkie6341 4 года назад

Is it? I didn't think 3d printing cared about topology...

@Warhamer116 4 года назад

@@selkie6341 Super high poly model tends to cause massive slowdowns when splicing and might result in overly complicated gcode. It's basically the equavalent of why you don't use high poly models for animating in terms of system slowdown.

@nholmes86 2 года назад

Hi can you use this tool to seel the meshes you generate with?

@emeraldeelentertainment8988 5 лет назад

As a free too it's not too bad, but the triangles and many poles really put me off.

@CGMatter 5 лет назад

Ya definitely a lot of manual clean up needed after for a nice mesh (but that's only necessary if the model isn't going to be a static mesh.)

@burkhardkalytta9254 4 года назад

Nice tool. even though there are big differences between original and reduced mesh. Fixing it via normal won't work that easy, too.

@ArgoBeats 4 года назад

Does it retain UV mapping from high-res mesh?

@nanakiinu 3 года назад

Does it work well on full body sculpts?

@TheNerd 3 года назад

i'm curious: what would default cube think about this tech?

@TheKevphil 4 года назад

This is off-topic, but I notice in your Taskbar that you also have Cinema 4D. It seems that along with a greater interest in Blender 2.8 recently, there is also more attention being paid to C4D. Any reason for this, or am I imagining things?

@christiansandrini96 4 года назад

I would never use this for a character but for an inanimate object it would be good. But even if I have to animate something I would probably still retopologize by hand rather than using this, just so I have the correct topology for deformations

@Bordie3D 2 года назад

It actually works very well for characters, but I also wouldn't use it simply because it has no symmetry.

@mikeohc Год назад

@@Bordie3D Could you maybe cut the character in half before exporting as obj, and run the retop, and import it back to blender to mirror?

@Bordie3D Год назад

@@mikeohc You see I tried this, but it's just a very tedious way of working. You have to manually sew it back together like a fucking doll.

@Bordie3D 2 года назад

I really want a way to symmetrize. This is a blackmagic tool but retoping characters is kind of flimzy without symmetry.

@BigFreakingCacodemon 5 лет назад

Seems like it could be really useful with retopo for photogrammetry meshes.
