Rhino 3D #3: Squeeze a Spaceship from a Box!

[porpoisefathom]

ok maybe a dumb question but how do i get my cursor to show the red orbs when i click on it?..mine wont do this...

[MrPARIADARK]

oye grasias pero no puedo poner los puntos del inisio eske el mio esta en español

[Friedtunafish77]

is this google sketchuo pro? If so, can I get it somwehere for free? Doesn't need to be legal :D

[gobacktorussia]

im not sure why but when i do this exact procedure and then shade it it looks mega bumpy like someone kicked the crap out it! i cannot figure out why?!? im not pushing the control points particularly far either! can anyone think why?

[fabfashionista13]

thank you so much this is indeed an easier way!.....i love your videos especially the rhino ones....is it okay for me to request a video? Can you please do a video on creating textures, especially with repeating forms? I have issues with too many polysurfaces that won't boolean union....and whenever I flow along curve it won't boolean union....

[SuperWegen]

in 4:57 What was the name of the program you save you could take the model to?

Something like "brice" ??!!??

[askgriff]

@SuperWegen It's Bryce. You can get Bryce 7 for free now through download [dot] com. Just search for Bryce and you will see the serial number with it. It's a really awesome free program.

I can piss a model like this in no time in max but that is because I have been using max for years, I learnt it through watching videos like this. I personally still prefer max but the major architecture companies these days seem to prefer a background in Rhino to one in both AutoCAD and Max and there must be a reason for that...

Rhino, to me, already seems far more capable of providing assessments of space. Max is more sculptural, it would be no use to me at all without AutoCAD.

[presbarkeep]

i used to be awesome in Rhino... then i switched to 3ds Max... learned max, now I forgot everything in Rhino. LOL sometimes I miss NURBS... max's nurbs tools arent as powerful as Rhino IMO... some days i miss rhino :*( then I fire up Max and I snap back to reality :D

[Rotem6986]

Hi! I'm watching your tutorials and learning a lot so thanks. But I'd like to know- is there a way to measure (as in Revit for ex) to make it more accurate?

[syeager9]

I think many people replying here don't understand what this program is for. It's not designed to make pretty pictures. It's intended to create drawings to control Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) machines.

[Nevadabb1906]

Why is it that you "experts" can construct an entire aircraft carrier in Rhino, CATIA, or Pro/E, but you can't construct a sentence in English?

This guy's doing a better job with the software than you're doing with the language.

[askgriff]

Thank you for that. There really aren't many Rhino tutorials available on MySpace (especially for beginners) so discouraging people from creating them seems stupid. Especially coming from people who have posted nothing at all original or helpful.

[Nevadabb1906]

Why is it that all you "experts" can supposedly construct an aircraft carrier in Rhino, CATIA, or Pro/E, but you CAN'T CONSTRUCT A SENTENCE IN ENGLISH?

[BorgKing001]

@Nevadabb1906 because we all can't be perfect douche bags like you

[helenatorr]

if you guys are so "advanced," then why are you even viewing tutorials on how to use this program. all this person is doing is showing everyone how to squeeze a spaceship from a box, and everyone is shitting bricks. jesus christ.

[sanchapple]

why would you teach anyone this garbage?

[Giganotosaurus1993]

Ok... who cares? This tutorial is for beginners, they really don't care at this stage. Plus don't try and compare 3d packages like 3d Max, because major fx companies use all of them. Not just one.

[zeratul575]

i got interested in my comp sci class i like it something to do play around in it

and i do want the full ver for home i use the evaluation copy at school

and its fun

[ralphian67]

pack ... Your right, but he's a hobbyist , that's a far cry from the typical 'professional' rhino user. Watching the tut from a professional perspective, indeed -- total train wreck. Nobody here is worried about continuity or valid polysurfaces ..... lol.

Misleading ? Maybe, but I'm not sure anyone learning at this level in a non-professional way will be harmed.

[packe777]

It's really misleading when you make a tutorial about something you really don't know yet, or you aren't advanced at it, at least, and this is supposed to help someone? The tutorial is a trainwreck. You didnt used snaps, osnap, (just ortho?), when u tried to "pull up the wings" in the transform cage u couldnt do it coz there was "ortho" osnap checked in the taskbar, and you wonder why u cant extrude upward. The polysurface mesh was invalid in the end, so this is missleading. Learn - then teach.

[askbecki]

Um... you're welcome. Point me to your tutorial and teach me.

[DARILyankee]

i was just about to post a comment exactly like yours

[F1Ace]

I am considering their software so this was very helpful, thanks!

Amazing what you did with a box! It blows me away and really helps me see how much easier I will be able to tackle my jobs. Can't thank you enough.

[Fr33lix]

what do you expect with free tutorials?..

.....i guess...

[josha42]

I'm sorry but that was really bad!...when you turned Ortho off and changed the wings in the perspective view it automatically takes the cursor to the origin...which is why you fucked up the wings....nice effort

[MrLOVABLE09]

Great video. i learned something new. thx

[virus745]

kwl video.

[Tiiggii]

You could use kind of mirror/symmetry, to get the same shape on both sides, in least i believe so, there must be something.

Can you show us more about exporting/importing int o for example max/lightwave, zbrush?

[mikeorx120]

oh yeah i got into the is cuz of you. thanx!

[mikeorx120]

do you have a basic tutoriol on how to use the free stuff? i just wanna make cool thingies and cars. especially cars...

[DJCUBY]

lol wow thas was to much pull out

[chewiesmissus]

That was a fun little vid! I understand your frustration with rhino when you want to do the simplest of things and something random happens! I didn't even realise you could box model with Rhino, something i find very useful in Max! Something i'll be trying soon xD

[ryanzzang]

omg super cool lecture!!

[freetutorials]

LOL -- hmmm. Thank you... again.

[ColdBloodedCarl]

Keep working and you've got yourself a sci-fi movie.. :)

[nakariri]

cool! i m gonna try now

[SpinalShank]

When your trying to pull out the sides, you can't do it in the 3d view. it just works on the plane for some reason.

[Heny4563]

You got really weird wings when you tried to develop in the perspective view which always makes a small move really big. Also if you want to select or deselect certain points, holding CTRL or Shift while selecting (individually or with the selection box) will add or take away from the current selection. :P

My 2 cents.
