Blender 2.59 Tudor style House tutorial, Modeling & Materials assignment

[XzazzenGames]

would i be able to put my 3D house in my RPG game in Unity3D?

[TuCC1129]

Ok thanks I'll try that. I've finished all your 2.59 tutorials now. Definitely the best I've found so far! Can't wait for more!

@TuCC1129 Thanks buddy! I'm sorry I haven't been coming out with any new videos lately. Been busy at my new job at Lucasfilm :) Will come out with more new videos soon! Thanks for subbing and watching!

Great tutorial so far, but I am confused about one part. During the part where you delete faces and select edges and bridge them (~8:50), half the time the bridge works perfectly, but in the other half, I get an error that sends me back to object mode. It says divide by 0 error. I just extruded and merged to do a manual bridge to get past this error, but I was wondering if you knew what was going on?

[weeliano]

@TuCC1129 Hmmm, could be due to the nature of Blender itself, with new versions coming out every few months, there may be hardware configurations that won't play nice with your computer. Try installing another slightly older version of Blender and see if the problem still exists, or you can download a test version from graphicall dawt org

One question. I've just started to learn Blender. Shouldn't you be able to work on 1/4 of the house and mirror it in two directions? First deleting one half, like you did in the beginning, and then deleting half of the remain, so you work on a corner of the house. Then mirror your mesh in both the x and the y direction. It should reduce the number of clicks required.

[weeliano]

@fbendz Yep you could do that too, but you have to take note that not all houses are completely symmetrical and you will still have to edit the final mesh.

Amazing! As a Blender novice but 3D Adept, I learned a great deal from this single video. Please record future Blender sessions. Subscribing to your channel.

I came across your video and I just created my first house model from your guide! Many thanks!

I have two questions.

One is the old brick texture mapping doesn't scale correctly (the bricks looks bigger than normal), or did I do sth. wrong with cube projection?

The other is I don't know how to slide the edge for the 'Edge Slide', what's the keystroke?

[weeliano]

@realalienzjc Hi thanks for watching and to answer your questions, first you need to change the UV size around 21:59 minutes into the video, on the column on the right. Or you can go into UV editing mode, select the whole UVs and scale it bigger. To do the Edge slide, in edit mode, select edge you want to slide, press CTRL+E to bring up the Edge specials menu and choose the option Edge slide.

Thanks! this video helped a lot

[ThaRemo1995]

is it possible to edit only one half of the house? if i want the mirrored side to stay how it was?

[weeliano]

@ThaRemo1995 Yes you definitely can, just hit apply on the mirror modifier and the mirror will make it both sides as a single Mesh. Then you can edit each side to your liking.
