Title: tutorial video of hull making, in truespace HP
Post by: mikazuki on August 15, 2008, 14:26:59

I found tutorial video of hull making, in truespace HP.
Only "Intro: Warming Up" is making hull tutorial.
Other tutorial videos are not ship modeling.

http://www.caligari.com/products/trueSpace/ts5/Courses/Newnurbsdesign.asp?Cate=Training&SubCate=Older

NURBS model seems good, like real objects in our real world.
I feel that, "sketchup" modelers use too many straight lines.

Same "Intro: Warming Up" video in YouTube.

I'm sorry that, I'm beginner of truespace.
SO, I do not know that version.

Anyway, I try to make hull in another way, on version "7.6".
PLZ see it.

Thanks, I add small yacht hull today.
I feel, a lot of BUGs on NURBS data of truespace.
If you have coin to buy 3D software, you should not use truespace.

I upload my hull NURBS object data (.RsObj) .
Anyone can use my hull data, if you can fight a lot of BUGs on truespace.
An advice, do not use "MIRROR", many BUGs in it.

Hoy ,
It seems like a more better program than sketchup.It looks  if its given more smoother lines.
Great work BTW.

Hi Marc,

The reason that you see jagged lines on sketchup models is not because sketchup can't smooth stuff, it's because some sketchup users don't know how to use it to the fullest.  ;)

Hoy Fred,
Yes, that also can be the reason.I was thinking that the free version of sketchup could not make it smooth,and maybe the registered version do.

Hi Marc,

Nah, the free version of sketchup can do everything, modeling wise, that the payware version can.

It's in the exporting and such, that the free version falls short, the compatibility with other programs and popular formats and such.

But as a modeling tool, it can do almost everything that the big expensive brothers can. But when it comes to the further development of a bare model into something that can be used by other applications such as games, that's where Sketchup falls short unless you use a combination of programs to fill in the gaps.



Fred.
