Asset: HyperBole Racers

Did you try right clicking, and saving the link that way?

Ian Hubert

Cannot download, plis help

I am asking myself if there is a way to replace the scanned people sitting on the hyperbole with a person filmed on a green screen . But how to put the hyperbole between the legs in order that everything fits and looks ok....

You just have to right click and "save link"- it's a little old school (I've started hosting recent files on google drive cause it seems to confuse less people)

Ian Hubert

It has no download link

There will be a little upward pointing arrow next to it, click on that then press keep.

I got same problem,so how to fix it:(

If you select display mode "Blender file" in the Outliner and unfold images you can see and remap duplicated images. The file I just downloaded have lots of duplicated images (.001, .002 and so on). A pythonscript to remap them would be awesome because it's cumbersome to do it manually. Don't forget to flip display mode to "Orphan data" and click purge when you're done.

I'm having trouble downloading this link. Chrome gives me a message that it couldn't be downloaded securely Do you have an alternate link?

Ian what license do you consider your assets to be released under?

Lukas Sprehn

In Blender, use the displacement node in the compositor. To render it out, enable the Mist pass in render layers, enable the mist under the camera's viewport (so you can see a line representing the mist) and then tweak the mist distance in the world settings. It will render a black-to-white gradient as one of the render layers where depth corresponds to brightness.

not bad for your first attempt, looks really good

Id looove if you talked to Nathan about that! I cant wrap my head around the first thing about python.. Even followed the tut you linked to a while ago - i just.. I can't! :D

Nickolai bauer

I'll tell you if I get around to it!

Quick Answer: to pack textures into the file you go File> External Data> "Automatically Pack into .blend" Longer answer: I'm going to make a video soon about cleaning up blend files and packing up texture data, hopefully that answers it a bit better.

Ian Hubert

Oh man that's rad!! I love the smoke sim! I wanted to do that for the HyperBole scene but I chickened out, hahaha And totally don't mind- I think it's super cool! Yeah you can use these assets in basically whatever you want :)

Ian Hubert

I THINK it's actually still there in the file (if you go to the text panel with the Textures.com disclaimer, you can find it in the pulldown)- but it's fairly specific to this situation. THAT SAID, it's reverse engineerable (you can see it basically searches through every material for texture nodes containing the missing image files (which we got from the system console), and replaces them with whatever texture we specified. THAT said, I'll talk to Nathan and see if we can make a few more one-size-fits-all options. I really want to make packing/cleaning texture files easier, so maybe we can develop some easy tools for that :D

Ian Hubert

Oh man if you can get a good print of these things I'd LOVE to see it!!

Ian Hubert

Wow these are so cool. I am going to have to start making my own. Hope you don't mind but I made a very short YouTube clip using the model to show my first attempt at smoke/fire simulation in Blender. https://youtu.be/nr71DdPcats

Grant Abbott

Hey Ian, could you please make a proper video about animating environments with depth maps? I've see the short one on youtube but I don't know how to use a depth map

Yo I just realised if this can be 3D printed we can make little action figures...cause why not 😂

10,000!

Zach Hoy

what! Wow outdoing yourself on this one

Zach Hoy

Is that python used to clean up the image textures something we could get our hands on? That sounds kinda essential 💪

Nickolai bauer

I have a question. I’m so curious, How to make "texture Pack" ? On shader Editor, I can see "Unpack Item of Image Texture". (Sorry to poor English. From South Korea.)

Would love it if Nathan Vegdahl would do a Python Youtube tutorial! YT is lacking in the Blender Python space for sure. Great work from both of you!

Seeing Popcorn Bot in this collection made me very happy

Mel

That’s amazing. That mean I can kitbash with them in a personal project? Or is it just for learning and study purposes? Just like to be sure. Anyway, thank you:)

May you live a thousand years.

Joel Bass

This is amazing, thanks for sharing Ian, you know I actually learn more from playing with your files, lighting render, and just back engineering. Tuts definitely help but it's good to have to asset to use while we learn. Anyways I have a lot of catching up to do still in the early 2000 lessons. I'm Excited to see what's to come.

I Like it Hardcore Tv

Awesome, Ian! Thanks! (For the cockpit assets, too!!) I wonder how much of a PITA it'll be to optimize the racers for 3D printing... 🤔 They'd look rad on a shelf! 😁

Bakamoichigei

this is AMAZING!! im having so much fun just exploring these assets, thankyouuu!!

Thanks so much for this Ian, absolutely and amazing and very generous of you to share such a huge slice of your efforts.

Nigel Hillyer

for cleaning up 3d scans you can look into using instant meshes (automatic retopo software) and then baking the diffuse map. I did that with one of the old character assets and I reduced the poly count from 50k to 5k with no noticeable change in quality.

No way~ It's sick

😲 wow thanks bro

Patrick Lever

Thanks Ian O: !!

Davide Gualmini

Dude, cant believe you shared all this stuff! You should crowdsource new shots for a new episode from all your patrons, :-)

Jason

Dang that's so cool thank you so much !

MrLinvalT

Thank you Ian

iain

*Makes punk metal hand gestures* YUSSSSSSSSSSSSS. Thank you so much Ian!!! Now we too can have bowls of hyper-o’s.
