Blender to Carrara - Projects, Tips, Issues, Freebies etc

Bunyip02

Felt like I was hijacking Stezza's thread which I love.

Future projects will be discussed here. Also any tips for workflow can go here. Issues can be raised in case someone has an answer. Freebies can be uploaded or links provided. Anything else Blender to Carrara to be discussed.

EDIT - Stezza has given the thumbs up to hijak his thread, so I will post the Projects there and provide the links to them here !!!

Forgot how to edge slide vertices - GG

Headwax

hey, do you know how to drop selected verticies down to a plane? and when I select verticies I only seem to be getting the front ones, not the back ones :)

1. Google is your friend - https://blenderartists.org/t/drop-vertices-to-a-plane/401181

2. Toggle X-Ray then box select your vertices

 

Headwax

thank you for the heads up on the method!!

 

Google is good but Carrara is my better friend!!

Carrara is definately the best friend !!!

Above answer of 1 and 2 was in response to your question, in Blender I would try the steps in reverse, 2 first, then 1. Hope you're not totally confuzzled !!!

I was confuszed when I was born ;) 

Been using the sculpting tool in blender for a while , using it on carrara designed objs , lately doing sun faces, been a pita trying to get a flat back. Unfortunately carrara can't handle the large objs if I try to reimport them,pity, would love to go between the two

Watch out, Guys! Our only real friend here is Carrara! ;-)
Google is definitely not our friend; it is just "friend" of our data.
Better friends of our web searches are Startpage, Qwant, DuckDuckgo, and the less private but environmentally friendly Ecosia :-)

Would love to use Carrara for all my modelling, but Blender has lots of Bells & Whistles .....

I use DuckDuckGo. To me "Google" is to search the web for what you are interested in.

Yes, I also use 'Google' as a verb in a sentence, but use DuckDuckgo to conduct web searches.
