PolyCloth – physics-based cloth sculpting for 3ds Max

So an artist that use “houdini, modo and Blender” is a blender kid for you…

I cannot judge him for that list of software at all, and I won’t enter in the fight of the “max is a joke”, but I don’t think judging someone directly for using “houdini, modo and Blender” is a good idea.

Also I don’t remember you from other threads here, in fact if I look for “Blue Division VR” in google, in cgpree.org, I don’t find any results, are you a random visitor that should be judged as a “max kid” or something like that?

P.S.: before you jump into conclusions, I think this tool is great for max users, the pity is that it’s not part of max, and that max does not have a proper sculpt toolset, but even without that I see some cool uses for it, glad someone did it.

In what mode and for what?

That’s a broad assumption, and I assume you do it not based on your own experience, but based on the video made by Eloi.

In that video you can see how in Sculpt Mode you can handle a super dense object without trouble, even faster than in Edit Poly in Max, so for many things, using the sculpt mode for very high res meshes is the best thing to do in Blender, for other things, yes, Edit Mode it’s slower than Edit Poly in very dense meshes.

Is that a general thing? Is Blender slow in general? not at all, we work in kind of big scenes and Blender handles them very very well, specially if you know how to work with Blender and don’t try to work with it like you would do with Max.
(It’s a matter of using a software as it has been designed, not as a different software)

Base your “facts” in actual facts and experience, not just in what you see out there.

BTW I could say “join the beta to see future plans in Blender regarding high poly meshes”, but there is no need… the plans are public, and dense meshes editing speed is one of the top priorities right now, and it’s improvement is under development.

I love 3DS for certain things but incredibly disappointed by its lack of evolution and it’s general trajectory.

They haven’t even fixed parallel vertex connections; oftentimes it finds a vertex that is distant rather than the closest one, requiring manual connect or re-triangulation. etc etc.
or
3DS is the Archviz industry choice because of its CAD integration/spline tools, but it still has no native way of measuring angles/ the tape measure tool sucks ass and hasn’t been developed. Miauu made an outstanding script that does it perfectly.

In fact somebody like Miauu has made so many crazy-amazing scripts that they should be integrated into 3DS; it would be the biggest turbocharged update ever.

They don’t have to revolutionize 3DS they just need to actually update it properly

Again, what for someone is a weak point (lots of scripts and plugins) for me is one of the strongest point. I know a lot (but a lot) of people that couldnt care less about measuring too,s in 3dsmax. And I am pretty sure there are as well a lot of them they needed. Thats the reason max is great with easy maxscript and huge maxscripts available if needed. Like this tool, I dont feel I needed but its great to have it as an option. I think we all can agree max has more core fundamental problems that need to be addressed before keep adding extra tools that are already available as scripts.

So you already know for a fact that that guy lied, why?
I wonder if it’s because you think it’s not possible to do what that guy claims he does, that’s something you should review.

I’m here since way before this was CGPress, I’m here since it was MaxUnderground, and there is a big amount of max users, but there are also a big amount of other users, don’t think everyone is like you because you would like everyone to be like you.

Now you have not answered, you accuse him of being a random users, but you, at least under that nick, are not present in any other conversation, should I think that you are lying? So far I have more clues about you lying about not being a random user that about that guy lying about the software he uses.

I’m not a lawyer of any child, I don’t know that guy, he may be a kid or he may be an adult, he may be a newbie or he may be an experienced user, I have no idea, what I dislike is people judging others just because they think they can judge anyone when that person does not agrees with them.
So not a lawyer, but if yo don’t like what I point out, think about why do I point it out.

Also I don’t think it’s safe to talk about some kind of “free religious sect called blender” when you are actually behaving like a sectarian person judging too soon and accusing others from lying because you don’t like what you hear.

The fact is that you seem to be more sectarian that that guy as of right now.

What about blender performance. How is performance. How is it? You can repeat slowly, just like edit mode in blender.

it’s tragically bad. Barely usable on heavy meshes on my laptop. I get 150 fps in edit mode on my max indie, 5 in blender. Wow. Just wow.
