See also still images and the storyboard. All was made with blender and rendered with the internal engine... Storyboards always http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=251 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=251 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 21:07:11 +0000 I realized how important storyboard were when I saw David Revoy's amazing work on the Tears of Steel movie. Until then I hadn't realized this was something actually doable, draw the whole movie before doing the 3D. I discovered it is not only perfectly doable, but also incredibly useful. This is the storyboard we did for... <h3>You spend too much time in from of the computer</h3> http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=228 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=228 Sun, 17 Mar 2013 02:50:57 +0000 and you want to know how much, or maybe you simply want to know how long you have been working on something today. For either cases, I made this little script for linux, that you must launch at startup (put it in your startup apps list, or launch it manually). It will then record the... Recompile a Ubuntu PPA package on Debian http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=225 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=225 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 23:06:02 +0000 One of the annoying things with Ubuntu PPAs is that they almost never install out-of-the-box on Debian, because usually they need a too new version of a package or a too old one, depending on which Ubuntu version you choose. Fortunately, since both Debian and Ubuntu share the same package system, so recompiling and repackaging a... Blender cross section script ported to 2.6x http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=217 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=217 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:33:54 +0000 This was long, long overdue, but the cross section script I and a couple of others wrote for blender 2.49 has finally been ported to 2.6x, thanks to the efforts of @Ejnaren who did most of the job. The script works basically the same way as the 2.49 version, you select objects to cut,... Dropbox check script http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=216 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=216 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:15:16 +0000 If you are using dropbox on linux, be aware that there are several reports of dropbox "losing" some of your files (the file still exists, but it has 0Kb size). The causes of this problem seem not very clear... Anyway, I made this little script that checks your dropbox folder if everything is okay: #!/bin/sh if... Costa do Ipê base project http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=215 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=215 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 15:37:22 +0000 We finally finished the intermediary part of the Costa do Ipê project, which is used to submit the project to authorities for approval, and will also be used by other designers involved in the project to do their work. All the work was done by a 3-person team (myself, Maíra and our friend Dani, and...

All modeled and rendered with blender (internal renderer). And a couple of still images extracted from it: FreeCAD plans http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=206 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2013=206 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 17:47:40 +0000 The 0.13 release of FreeCAD is being prepared and is almost ready (we are now uploading sources everywhere and building packages), so this is a good time to plan a little bit what I will be working on next...

It is a very good machine, with a recent generation I7 CPU, an Nvidia GTX660m GPU with a 1920x1080 display, and an hybrid HDD+SSD hard drive, which boots debian in less than 7 seconds from grub to fully loaded desktop. This notebook is what is...

Project by Adriana Furst. The last one is a garden design made 100% in gimp.

Made on Linux, but should work on any platform. On Linux, place this script in your /home/$USER/bin folder (or any other that is in your $PATH), make it executable,... FreeCAD Arch module how-to http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=180 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=180 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 19:37:24 +0000 In this article I'll try to describe you the new Arch module, that will be available in the soon-to-be-released version 0.13 of FreeCAD. I built a small model with it, in order to walk through the different components and tools currently available. This project is based on a Blender model that I made during... Latest developments of the FreeCAD Arch module http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=158 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=158 Mon, 03 Sep 2012 22:17:21 +0000 This is a small sneak preview of what is possible with the 0.13 version, to be released very soon (you can already test by installing a development version). This is nothing comparable to commercial solutions yet, but it already allows to do some useful work: It is now quite easy to import mesh objects from Blender... Handling IFC files on Linux http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=157 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=157 Sun, 02 Sep 2012 20:06:56 +0000 Working with IFC files on a linux system is still not something easy, but there are already a couple of things you can do: 1. Add a MIME type To have .ifc files recognized, add a file named "application-x-extension-ifc.xml" to ~/.local/share/mime/packages (or /usr/share/mime/packages for system-wide) with this content: Industry Foundation Classes Then run "update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime" to update... Minha Palestra do FreeCAD no youtube http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=156 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=156 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 22:42:51 +0000 O pessoal do FISL gravou a palestra sobre FreeCAD que fiz no FISL13.

There are now 2 modes, solid, which uses the Arch vector renderer, and wireframe, which uses the standard Drawing module algorithms. That last mode now also... Building luxrender on linux http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=141 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=141 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:20:45 +0000 I wrote this little article mostly because I had to reinstall Luxrender (mostly to try Luke's work), and this will serve me as a memo for another time. The info below comes mostly from the official instructions. First, you must install the dependencies listed on the official page above. Here luckily I already had... FreeCAD and the FISL http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=140 http://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2012=140 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 17:33:59 +0000 Maíra and me are back from the FISL. I've been presenting FreeCAD there (pdf of my talk here - in portuguese), and we also gave a Blender workshop. The FreeCAD talk has been good, about half the room was filled, which is much more than I expected, CAD being a subject that fundamentally doesn't...
