Of all the time I have spent looking to find an easy way to make dice and here a guy 370 followers is the real MVP. Thank you Nash for making a clear and easy answer that I have not been able to find until now.
Currently in the process of printing my first "custom" dice from the DiceMaker. 1,000,000% easier than trying to start from scratch in Blender. Thanks again. @@Nash_Idaho
Instead of saving each dice individually, you can scroll down on the save menu and select 'Export All' and it will save each dice as a separate stl file for you
OK, you just saved me ; i've spend the last weeks dealing with Blender to make dice with no results so thank you very very much for this video and the tutorial ❤
Its an awesome tutorial, love it. My question is, you made pngs in the blank space, can I do it where a number is without taking the number away? Thank you ^^
You can replace any side with a new design but if you wanted to add a design to a side and keep the number I think you’d have to make a whole new design I don’t think you can layer the designs on top of each other for example
I've been using this program for some time to try and design masters, it's absolutely amazing. You can even add the fins for printing. On question though, I don't have a printer myself so I send it out to print, but it seems that I keep having issues with "thin" lines collapsing/not printing well. Any advice on this?
I would recommend getting your own printer as they are really affordable, but a few things I've noticed... adding more supports all around the numbers on the bottom facing faces is important! Keep the intricate designs like a logo on the 20 facing upwards. Lastly keep the designs simple, lines too close together can fuse if the printer isnt dialed perfectly...
@@Nash_Idaho unfortunately here in Brazil they are not as affordable 😅 I think the design is ok, extra supports sounds something I could try. Also wondering about the engraving depth. Do you think it collapses when it’s too deep? I had at 1.25, but considering 0.75 might be better. Afraid that if I put less it won’t be enough after polishing
Muchas gracias, genial! Cómo es el asunto sobre la licencia de las fuentes? Puedo usar cualquiera para vender mis dados? Como hago para darme cuenta de que fuente puedo usar o no?
It appears that you can use anything you create with the program freely. The license only seems to restrict the software not the prints. The creator even encourages creating dice masters with it.
Bro since I discovered your channel I've been playing with this program . But I'm trying to put custom logos on mine . And it's a battle man I'm telling to to convert and do all the fine touches to the file. So I'm throwing together some python code that will make this easier to go from a SVG or PNG file run it through the code and spits out the ttd format. I'm trying to do like 12 logos all at once and thes online converters always have some limitations. If it works I'll post it for you and other dice maker devs👌
which slicer do you use? i've been printing using chitubox without issues, I've heard of some issues with lychee. It may also be an option in your slicer to make it hollow or filled.
@@Nash_Idaho it is hollow in the dice program and in the stl I used stl viewer and chitubox I am wondering if it is the font I used I used a font called stucked in gears
@@robertwilliams1095 the 3d file viewed on the computer will be hollow I suppose as it really is just the outside polygons you see, making it solid for 3d printing is the job of the slicer, once it is sliced is it solid?
@@Nash_Idaho I figured it out it is the font it is loading at engrave depth of 5.00mm automatically evertime I try to use it. I changed the depth and it fixed the issue thank you for taking time to help me and thank you for the awesome video
@@robertwilliams1095 that is really interesting, I think if the numbers get too deep they can clip through another part of the di and cause the 3d program to not know which side is the inside or outside! Well good to know for the future and I’m glad you figured it out!
Next step? That was my first step in dice making. Whole reason i started is because I wanted custom sides for my characters. Oh and i used the free version of Fusion 360
@@RandomStuff404s started from scratch as i wanted to learn the program doing these. d4 d6 d8 were pretty easy to figure out myself. D10 d12 and d20 i found a tutorial on YT. Once i saved the basic shapes as templates i reused them ever since.
There's a tool you can get for generating 3d polygons in fusion but it's not much better than this as you'd need to go in and individually sketch each number in fusion or draw in images using the canvas feature
Is it a .ttf file? If it is and it doesn’t work then you may need to try a different font, some fonts, specially free ones are missing numbers and other things so maybe that is causing an error too
Please be advised... If you want to make your own dice, to sell... You can't use other people's fonts. Just like you can't use other people's dice design, a font is copyrighted too. (But some may be public domain)
