@@GearshiftDevelopmentStudios I don't think they're saying they don't have one just they feel the pain of not using one. also for 10 to 20 dollars you're lucky if you get someting that works for over a week lmfao
3:38 Even if you learn to do things the hard way or wrong way, technically you can always say you made some progress. I may not always use the same techniques I used to, but I still learned things from them!
I know you were probably joking about not being able to enter camera mode but it's the tilde (~) key for the View pie menu or click the camera view icon under the navigation gizmo at the top right. 👍 And while a laptop trackpad is not ideal, Blender actually has pretty good trackpad support, better than any other DCCs I've tried. The setting to enable Multi-touch Gesture controls is under Preferences > Input > Touchpad. Then it's two-finger scroll to orbit, Shift+two-finger scroll to pan, and Ctrl+two-finger scroll to zoom.
I learned how to model on a Macbook Pro using the trackpad while commuting - 50 minutes each way - every day for a good couple of years. I used to treat that time as dedicated practice and learned so much. I think because I had a particular goal in mind, having to learn how to do it without a mouse was imperative.
I hated numerpad on laptops, but I'm so lucky I have (by chance) bought a laptop with a middle click and a numberpad :D For the hell of it I cannot use blender with a mouse. Love your videos and they save my life :D We are expected to make a super-bowl worthy product reveal video - but most of us never opened blender before
As a 3d rendering and animator. I used to do it all on pc, lost it due to a fire and have a MacBook Air since, now I’m so used to the MacBook I kinda prefer 3d modeling, rendering, and animating on a MacBook Air m1 and I can’t do it on a pc now. It was hard at first but you know it-takes practice but it isn’t impossible. Nothings impossible
This is a crazy challenge. Ive always had in my head when i travel by plane "man if only i could make artwork on mg laptop while i fly but that would be sooo uncomfortable plus where would i put my drawing tablet?" Luckily i have an ipad and i can draw on procreate but i don't have a 3d software for it. Im glad my assumptions were right when watching this video. Having to worry about battery life, using a trackpad because no space for mouse and on top of that you cant use all the shortcut keys for blender because you dont have a numpad...jeez. i dont even want to mention the anxiety of ppl looking at what youre doing and potentially asking as well. I cant do it! But props to you for pushing through. Hope your panel went well! Is there a place where we can watch it or will that be an upcoming video?
I mean if you want to look through your camera, just press the camera button on right under the axis. I always do that cause my keyboard don't have numpad.
Yo! Smeaf! I know the pain for trying to use Blender on a laptop. I use a laptop as my main Blender computer and when my mouse battery died I tried to use the track pad but my track pad is busted! so I couldn't even man around my object! (oh btw if your looking for a new blender addon to try, I made one but its not out yet so let me know if your interested.)
Hey Smeaf. Glad you stayed sane (enough) to get through the project lol. If I may ask, what would you think would be the price of the commercial you made if IKEA were (or if they already) to buy it from you? Thanks
i have almost this exact laptop that I use Blender on, when there's no room for a mouse pad I use the space to the right of the trackpad as a mini mouse pad. also I just rebound regular zero to numpad zero
Are there any other places where you have your animation course? I want to purchase but don't care for skillshare and paying monthly fee(i like udemy's per course fee more). I know you can probably cancel whenever but had issues last time with cancelling(took several months). But anyways, cool video.
Actually there was an easier way to rotate and zoom in and out with trackpad to rotate you just simply use two fingers and swipe in any direction and to zoom just pinch I got used to using trackpad like that bc I had no three button mouse I when I was learning blender in my mothers laptop but I moved to my school laptop 💀 it’s not bad… but that’s how you use blender with trackpad
I don't know if this will help anyone, but at 2:30 he says that the hotkey to look through the camera doesn't exist. I don't have a 100% keyboard so there are also quite a few hotkeys that are missing for me. But there is an solution (if anyone even uses Blender without an 100% keyboard). On your keyboard (I use US layout so idk if it works for you) just hold down the ` key (on the top left, the one that's also used for the ~) and press 1 while still holding `. Just one thing that I randomly found out some time.
Why on earth did Mr. Beast style of content spilled out into the 3D world. Next thing people will need smudge content to concentrate in their tutorials.
@@shamaiahellis8810 I imagine the same. Growing a channel on tutorials only is also a pain in the butt, I've seen some great channels teaching awesome content that get like 1k views on each video. It's like Jazza's channel, who used to create actual tutorials and went the Mr. Beast way of useless content to make ends meet I guess.
@@eucharistenjoyer yup tutorials use to get views but ever since the beastification of RUclips it's more about breakdowns/entertainment for everything. And I can't really blame them if your depending on this for a living then that gets way more views.
@@shamaiahellis8810 I've just found, literally minutes ago, about an extension that allows community made names and thumbnails for each video, called Dearrow, suggested by Robin Square (which seems to have a good channel). It won't help lots of times due to the lack of Blender users using it to sanitize Blender tutorials, but I think it's a start.
2:15 naaah, hella exaggerated. all keybinds are the same except ones that use middle mouse wheel. ofc there will be differences due to trackpad but very minor and rly no harder to use blender. Might also have to emulate numpad if u dont have one

And connect to the plane's main power unit
they do, i once brought my pc with a intel core -2, it was so powerful that it blew the plane up!

Me watching this without having ever used blender on anything else than a laptop with trackpad and no numpad.

Yes to all of the above, the anxiety was unreal 💀
The panel was fun and surreal, I think Open Sauce will release it on their platform at some stage :)
BRO I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
"fly passionately!"
smeaf: hell yeah
11:42 FRC?? They've got everything there i guess lol
You can use the numpad by pressing the fn button and the respective keys. Mine is M for 0 , J for 1 etc
great video! and btw you can use gesture with two fingers to rotate and zoom in the camera.
its MUCH EASIER than using alt and drag LOL
I mean if you want to look through your camera, just press the camera button on right under the axis. I always do that cause my keyboard don't have numpad.

Hey Smeaf. Another great vid! Any updates on the Blender course you wanted to work on? Fingers crossed you didn't ditch the idea
lol awesome ! I see a whole new series of "I Made a CG Commercial on a" vids 🤪
Smeaf, use the trackpad with two finger. You must can orbit like
Bro i love that you use terraria and zelda music for the videos
I can't tell if this is a commercial for Anker, Ikea, or Skillshare. Probably not for the airline...
All of them
