Happy Christmas!
Hey Guy's

Hope you all have a good Christmas and enjoy the time with who ever your spending it with or if not I hope you have a good break, it's been a pretty shitty year all round for most people, hopefully next year it improves.
Speaking of next year, I have some idea's in mind, I think my content went a bit stale this year and that contributed to the lack of content as I just didn't like some if the ideas I was creating, so next year I'm aiming to try and get back to how I was at the start, new ideas and trying to create all different kinds of stories rather than the same ones hashed over and over.
I have a couple of projects I want to do in mind but I'm not setting anything in stone because if I think of something better, I will do that instead.
My new rig.....NEW! rig has to go pack for a repair in January, great start, water pump sounds iffy so that will be a week or two with them but my goal is to get some shorts ready for the month so some content is coming out. ( Up side is, it can run cyberpunk )
Anyway, I think that's it for now, hope you like the Christmas short (yes I know the jizz doesn't look right xD ) and I'll see you all in the new year, 2020 can officially, fuck all the way off.
Stay Difrnt Bambinos.

I honestly think his stuff is getting worse, the angles are so bad and the animations are really bland. He is really lazy in doing facial animations and the crappy angles and blur effects don't hide it at all. You can't really fix those with a new rig, he should have just stuck with SFM.

I don't know so many English word but I know the shit when I see it

Agreed, same shit, different day..... I cant see him improving to be honest, but who knows

 

[Noname55]

I think the problem here is that Sum decided to swap to blender right when he reached a very decent level with SFM. Sure it has a metric fuck-ton of problems but you can still make animations that look pretty good (take for example Fugtrup or Noname, though those guys have been at it for longer) without the need of a powerful PC.

Now this is just the opinion of someone that barely knows about animating, isn't one of his patrons at the moment and you can bet your ass I have no idea how to go about the whole making animated porn business but:

- Was the change to blender good? Entirely up to the animator. A lot of them have transitioned to blender over the past year and they're making really good stuff, depends on how much Sum is trying to improve. Which so far, seems to be a slow process.

- Was the timing good? Here I think he fucked up or doesn't really care that much. A year of wait for NW2 which was a bit polarizing but overall good IMO. And then, after a long time of so-so shorts with like 3 good ones and MONTHS after his last big release he says work on STORY DRAFTS are getting done. Now it seems his main project has been scrapped 'cause he was making it in SFM. Sum DID NOT SAY that he cancelled it, but months without a single mention of it and blender practice shorts? Take a guess.

- Is there hope? Despite Sum's record I say that yes, there is. When his patron count reached a good spot around 2018 the amount of posts started to drop, and I bet anything that his number of ideas went down as well. But now he wants to try out new stories and that will probably motivate him to make better animations, there's also the little detail about how this is his main income and you kinda wanna keep people paying you. Some patrons may be lenient but I don't think he can pull a WEG dev stunt for long. He is a known animator at this point after all.

You can make better shit in blender than you can in SFM. The problem is he doesn't know how to get the most out of Blender yet. I'm really liking the improved textures and lighting but the animation doesn't look as good. Also he's never been good with facial animations. He's done a few competent ones in his later SFM work but his facial animations and lip sync have never been great. I also hate the angles he uses too. The thing is he sometimes pulls off pretty decent animation work but it's never consistently good like Noname55 or GeneralButch. He's very much a guy who is still learning how to animate in my opinion. I know he has the potential to be good because some of his work looks decent. Fact of the matter is though many people will settle for shit and that's probably how he gets away with it. Many of his Patrons don't know good animation when they see it so he just cranks out anything to keep his Patrons. Seriously SD if you're reading this. Just tell your Patrons you're working on something of a higher standard and it's going to take more time to make. That's going to keep them way more engaged than hitting arbitrary deadlines and sacricing the quality. Look at the work of a good porn animator like General Butch and if you don't think it meets the same technical standard then don't publish it.

What are the medium-range specs(laptop) required for Blender? I am trying to buy a laptop that can hold up Blender pretty well(mid-range)

You don't need a powerful PC to run blender. However 16 gig of ram would be recommended and a GPU with 12 gig. Quadcore too would be a given.

you bro.....this is the best informative explanation

The requirements get changed. The best and sure way to know the system requirements is to check the website itself.

These requirements may change in the future as blender is updated and becomes better and better.

True but there's not going to be changes needed in computer hardware from one update to the next. The things I mentioned were just what you should have as a minimium for running any 3d rendering software smoothly. I would second this though. If you want to be safe then check the site.

Unless you're doing simple stuff, then sadly just like Daz you'll need a really good pc overall. My rig with 32gb of ram, i5-4670k and 4gb of gpu barely holds up blender. Or rather, the amount of things that are free such as models, environments and so on since most of them are high quality of course.

So if someone plans in doing animation, definitely not recommended with a 4gb card. Not even renders to be honest. Even tho the render engines might be more "lighter" than iray itself, overall, again, a good pc is more than suggested. That's why as of now I'm still stuck with daz, other than the fact that after all I came to know more or less what needs to be done in order to optimize stuff and so on.

 

[Fergie]

Even though blender is one of the free 3d animation software out there is still need a very high demanding pc for animation and rig. At least you need 16gb of ram and good graphic card 6gb-12gb. Of course if you have rtx or quadro card it would be very good. A mid -high end range processor is needed such as intel i5, i7, i9 with at least 8th generation and turbo overclock will be needed.

My recommendation :
1. 1000 dollars rig ( i5 8th gen, ram 16 GB, gtx 1660ti or if you lucky an rtx 2060)

2. 1500 -1700 dollars( if you lucky find cheap ones definitely use i9 10th gen,16- 32 GB ram witsh 3000mhz, rtx super variants and a good pen tablet if you want it though)

3. 2000 - above dollars ( in this rig, if you really lucky you can have quadro card and of course 32gb ram with top speed 3200 mhz, also if you want water cooling that would be great this because or pc will be work the hell out of it when you render hd 3d animation )

Of course all of the recommendations above is at least future proof for 1-2 years from now. But if you really want full job as 3d animator with blender, daz3d, and so on. you need to understand not only just animated them but also rendering which is very high demading pc activity. Of course this post is just my opinion. I'm definitely not a master or expert of 3d animation and it's very hard to learn but I learn about vfx such as in after effect, Houdini, Maya so I also understand what is 3d animation and what it needed to operate them. This just my opinion feel free to share your knowledge to.

Man, a hope sumthindifrnt is really into Mission k9 episode 2 in 2021. I very remember back in 2017 -2018 sum created a long movie bunch of good shorts. I hope that time will come again.

I'M NOT HATE AMD, BUT IF YOU CAN DON'T USE AMD As YOUR PC MAIN PARTS FOR 3D ANIMATION THEIR PERPOSE IS MAINLY FOR GAMING. This is because Nvidia in much much more compatible for animation because of good feature such iray and far more cooling than amd. But if you don't have the budget then consider use AMD for learning 3d good ahead.

Hello any news about of the visual novel NW?

 

[Yustu]

I will share my 2 cents and update on Fergie post.

1. There is no such thing as "feature proof" when it comes to 3D (doesn't matter animation or rendering <- especially rendering !). The rule is simple -> spend as much as You can afford.
2. MT vs ST -> or mainstream platform vs HEDT platform -> Blender for animation and simulation unfortunately uses ST mainly and there are test showing that Intel desktop (test was done before Zen3) are faster then AMD HEDT (ST was faster on Intel at that time and it seams with Intel 11 gen will be faster than Zen3)
3. MT -> Intel HEDT is dead, go TR.
4. GPU -> best that You can buy, ideally 3090 currently. Don't go Quadro although these will give You better viewport performance in i.e. Maya (seen only test for Maya, dunno if apply to blender and 3dsMax) but $$$ don't justify performance difference.
5. Water cooling -> if PC is not in same room or You do sleep in different room and You don't mind higher room temp (especially in summer !) and noise while working do air otherwise go water (custom water!) and ideally with external water colling set-up like MO-RA3 with location outside of You main "office | working area". Heat and noise on high end cards become real issue. This is subjective of course and some doesn't care - personally I don't stand it.
6. Iray vs Cycles - doesn't matter much they are different but are capable of producing nice result - skill is the key
7. Animation - forget DAZ go Blender. Example: try to do squat animation by pulling pelvis bone down and see how DAZ translate feet (they go under the floor - at least with version fron mid 2020, didn't tested recent ones)
7a. do "preview" in blender (eevvee or ogl) vs DAZ for animation, blender FTW
7b. Speed and quality of preview in DAZ vs Blender eevvee - DAZ is a joke. Eevvee just wins and You can do final renders with it. Granted there are some quirks, but with good shader know-how most issues can be overcomed, reflective surfaces are issue still as there is no "RT" like feature in this real time engine.

Bottom line - rule is simple - spend as much as possible prioritizing:

1. GPU - VRAM (1080Ti with 11GB will be faster then i.e. 3070 8GB when doing render of a scene with 10GB assets due to out of the vram rendering mode ! - info based on NV promotion material comparing 3080 vs 3090 for a scene with 13GB asset IIRC)
2. GPU - speed
2. CPU
3. amount of RAM - min 16GB

3D is most taxing task that can be done on PC hardware, period.

NOTE1: above is based on "semi pro" approach to the task, 3D can be done on lower spec machines but definetly it won't be comfortable.

NOTE2: AMD is no good for 3D. OpenCL is a joke that was not updated for a long time, see linus tech tips review for RDNA2 GPUS. NV RTX for a gaming is also a joke (although CP2077 with GI - I like !!!) but Optix in 3D packages (including Blender) is a real deal.

Just my 2 cents, feel free to disagree .

Awesome, thanks dude for you better explanation. I very much agree for this post. Like I said I not an expert of this 3d animation or anything similar. The Bottom line is, if anyone want to learn or really into 3d animation as 3d artist put as much as you can for your gear, skill, determination, and so on. Believe or not my pc is i7 8th gen, ram 16gb, with rtx 2060 super and it still almost useless in After Effect CS 5 because of video rendering. I cannot imagine my pc if I am using 3d max, unreal engine, cinema 4D, or zbrush. It will be like hell for my pc though.

But if you want to learn or create old videos like sumthindifrnt with sfm. My kind of pc is pretty good but learning about rigging and physic ( those jiggling ass) then it will be much more harder and time consuming. But if you like to try WE ALWAYS WELCOME NEW 3D ARTIST AND CREATOR.

I'm really glad that my post is been positively response by someone that much more understand and better than me. Thanks dude for your thoughts and sorry all for many mistakes in my post that you need to correct.
