Modlumi - Easy 3D modelling

pilou

Ah you are speedy!
Seems no more bug inside Sweep now!

ntxdave

How do you draw something like this in Modlumi?

pilou

Can you put a number of version or something similar on the top of the Net version ?
Like this user can see if it uses a new version or not!
Excellent for the new functions!

pixelcruncher

Yea, we have this but it's probably not that user friendly:

I will add a better versioning scheme.

pilou

Not hyper friendly indeed!

@ ntxdave
ModLumi = SketchUp lite for the moment ... so you draw exactely like before!

Here i just erased by Hand some faces because i had no time!

But result images will be the same! Because today AI help you!

@pixelcruncher
What is Redo if existing?
Found!!! CTRL + Y !

So I can make my little video!
@ntxdave
No more simple use the Sweep and Offset Functions as usual!

As you see Ai will add thickness itself on the final render!

So you can make now furnitures in a wink!

Version b7010dd

Always a bug of Snap 3D with Arc Circle!
There is a vertical segment on the middle ot the diagonal of the top face rectangle!
Will be the same if the rectangle was drawn on the ground!

pilou

Some little regressions in Sweep! (or my little mine

Little asks

Functions Copy, Rotate + " *, / " oK... but...Scale + " * / " ?

"Sweep" OK but... Sweep + Scale ?

pilou

We can't name a curve ? If I make a group it can't be selected for make a sweep! (?)

So the best solution is put the path out of the future structure for an easy selection!

Merci pilou de faire connaître ModLumi et de partager tes créations ! Continue à me signaler les bugs que tu rencontres, ça m’aide beaucoup à améliorer l’application

AI translated.

Cheers,

Couple of questions:

How did you draw this model?
How did you render this model?

I do not see the ability render with the type of materials in your model. As an example, how did you make something look like it is metalic. The only thing I am seeing in the materials is colors and no ability to add any shin or roughtness.

IN the release notes, I saw this:
See a readable release number in the browser’s menu bar. Makes it easier to check whether the latest release is loaded. Original forum report

When I look in the upper right part of the browser's menu bar, I keep am seeing 0.4

@ntxdave Life's fast on the bleeding edge, I just released a new version

But I thought it was 0.3, not 0.4!

Pilou has been showing some really neat stuff in his posts but I do not understand how it is accomplishing some of it. In particular, how is he applying the textures he has been showing?

pixelcruncher

@ntxdave Those renders were not made by modlumi. He created the model in modlumi, and then used other software to render it.

pixelcruncher

Just released a new version (v0.6). This one has fillet/chamfer/bevel support. This feature is still experimental and may change. Feedback welcome!

ntxdave

OK,

How do I update to the latest version or is it automatic when you run the app?
How do you control/enter the infor for the bevel options?

Never mind, you can delete this message. I just went back to the app and now see that it updated automatically.

pilou

@ntxdave How did you draw this model?
Draw any closed section
Draw an Arc CIrcle
Use the Sweep Section
(put the arc circle out of the Structure resultant like this you can reuse it for following!
Draw an internal Offset on one of face extremity
Use again the Sweep Function with this Offset!
(same the furniture above)

""How did you render this model?"
I make a screen Snapshot (but you can use the Save Image Function of ModLumi ! ;°
Then send it to free Gemini where you can make any thing you want! https://gemini.google.com/app
Very simple prompts! (en français !

effacer les axes, et mettre des personnages dans ces couloirs
mettre de la couleurs sur la structure .

So In English! the 2 Prompts were..

erase the axes and place figures in these corridors
add color to the structure
What do want more simple ?

If you have some problem I can make another gif animation!

In fact modeling is quasi the same than inside SKetchUp !

pilou

@pixelcruncher
Excellent seems you have resolved the Bug of 3D Snap Arc Circle ! Bravo!
Your Bevel, Fillet, Chamfer functions are a killer one!
Working from the first time!
