I don't know what is going down in Russia right now but here's David Gilmour's guitar solo from Pink Floyd's #RiseUp projected on the #Russian Embassy in Washington DC (created with #b3d)
My question to the community:
Did NVIDIA's contributions to #b3d import/export of USD render it useless for animation pipelines?
Both export of SubD and SkelAnim are sabotaged because #nvidiaomniverse can only handle polyMeshes and also needs baked normals.
I hope Apple can prevent further damages.
Or maybe I'm doing it wrong 🤷🏼♂️
Thirty years ago, I used the holidays to rewrite our in-house 3d tool from scratch, based on specs and design I worked on for a year. On January 2nd 1994, the first version was running!
I'm incredible proud, humbled and impressed of where it went. Happy 30th birthday :) #b3d
along with other things, i got a procedural "unspecific fleshy organic meat material" done today.
it actually balances well between appalling and morbidly fascinating.
i'm proud of it!
yay for horror materials on 🥳 halloween month 💀

[a screenshot of a fleshy looking material with lighter pieces bulging out of dark red areas. there are darker patches that look like veins running through the lighter areas. it looks unspecific and could also just be polished red rock. either way it's fittingly gross.](https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/111/180/828/240/308/310/original/7dff66a6131f8b6b.png)
[another screenshot of a fleshy material. it looks very meaty.](https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/111/180/828/562/096/635/original/7151f387aff870b7.png)
idk how anatomically correct it is but i did it!
i made my first still beating heart!
material is animated. it's nice & flexible too... like you can change the color and roughness of the flesh so the same texture can be used in other... fleshy cases.
yay for 3d horror elements!

[A video panning around a 3D heart. The heart is slightly beating and looks fleshy. It's very disturbing. There are veins all around it... It looks relatively anatomically correct. The video starts from inside the heart and than pans out, and circles around it.](https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/111/184/661/057/433/781/original/5885bcca89cfedcb.mp4)
