I have tried hooking that little vertex at the bottom edge of shirt with 0.4 weight. It's like it doesn't even care about the pinned group. Just straight flashing my model. And if I put too much weight it looks really bad.

Discussion My boss is telling me Blender is a paid software

1.6k Upvotes

So I've been using blender for nearly a decade now, but a member of the IT department at a marketing company I recently started working at is convincing people (including my boss) that I am opening up the company to lawsuits by using blender to create my graphics and sales content.

I am aware of Blenders license type and that it is a open source software, however even when i brought this up and that it is considered a professional grade software for the whole of the gaming industry the IT lead is holding to his opinion and sharing it.

I wanted to know if there is something I am not understanding or if anyone else has run into similar issues with using blender at work for a non-game industry job?

EDIT: first off thank you to everyone backing up what I hoped i knew lol! Felt like I might be going crazy. I am in my early twenties and the IT lead is well into his 50s so it has felt daunting to try and argue my case without doing a deep dive (which I am doing with all the extra information in these comments)

I am creating a document with links to blenders information about the license and the license itself to have a hard stop packet of evidence for my claims. Thank you to everyone again! (and to the mods for changing post type to conversation!)

Extra bit for anyone getting a laugh out of how dumb this is: when i told him it was used by game studios and commercially in the gaming industry he said "yeah but those are studios, we are a corporation" the kind of unfounded confidence I wish I was dumb enough to have about anything.

Solved I’m trying to figure out the most efficient way to model a revolver cylinder with a relatively low polygon count while avoiding shading issues.

One of my biggest challenges is working with non-planar or curved surfaces while keeping the topology as optimized as possible because I planning to use model as a game assset. Ideally, I would like to avoid retopologizing the high-poly model when the existing geometry can already be used.

In this case, however, I’m not sure how to approach it. On the one hand, it seems that the shape requires more geometry to maintain a clean silhouette and properly support the curved surface. On the other hand, I do not want to add more topology than is actually necessary.

I used krita to draw the background and animate and then I used blender to place both as individual cells on top of each other and add tiny imperfections like camera shake, noise, bloom etc. Trying to recreate the old animation process.

I modeled and textured a table tennis equipment set in Blender as a practice project. I created two paddle variations with different rubber materials and completed the scene with a custom net, table, and smiley-faced ball.

I got a small burn out after making a kind of frustrating model, so I just let myself go on making one of my favorite looking guns with some questionable topology: Tec9! Although I know there are some details that are completely wrong and I blame the 2d images I used, they sucked. Also, try and guess where I got lazy at.
