Do you know that you are not obliged to take Group(s) or Component(s) for apply a Radial Bend! ?

I must be lucky I have not Splatch for all that!
(No Group (s), no component (s), Group(s), Component(s) and all combinaisons of them!

I suppose that your splatch is use Fredo Scale with existing another plugins!

Yes i did know that. But just tried bending by triple click only to select and after bending, no splat. This of course automatically groups the entity, which splats if I try another bend on it.

Curious, my first test was with a single group, just selected, not 'edit' mode.
I then copied it over twice and made all three a group.
In 'edit' mode I was able to bend individual groups, no splat.

With exactly your 4 steps... bugsplat!

Here we go, sorry, I would normally post the non facebooked one here but I forgot to keep a clean copy.

That's amazing. You go crazy!

And if the sea levels rise just walk back up to the bridge.....

I didn't realize I was subscribed to the French group, so thanks for the info.

The first one is my pick. The scene already exists so really an actual photo would be the answer if you wanted PR.
I would think the point of this is to essentially make a piece of 'Art'.
Which this is.

It is my habit to browse several pages of the 'Unread' posts most days.
It would be a better experience if I could exclude certain sections. In my case, I don't need to see the French posts or the Kubity ones etc.
Possibly something could be set up in profiles?

Thank you Gents, I hope to improve on it... the aim is something like eventually getting an A2 canvas print out of it.

Each piece of timber in the real bridge is unique of course, therefore there can be no visible repeats in the model.(Unlike this below).
And the proper textures are a problem... do I texture or model?. I suspect a bit of both. Will probly try uber modelling on a couple of close up views and reload simpler comps for aspect views.

Still have to get the 'Great Dividing Range' on the skyline too.

And thanks for all the Birthday wishes.
Not depressed now that I'm sober, just my usual pragmatic self.
See you all in hell.

I know how you feel. Don't exaggerate regarding timelines, it gives the deniers more ammunition. It looks really bad though, especially since November.

Yes, Trump might prove to be the proverbial straw, tho' Obama couldn't do much against the entrenched interests for denial. Nor can our PM, Turnbull. He has just caved in on a carbon tax.

Until shit really hits the fan - nothing big will change I'm afraid. Only after it's too late and the people in general are getting convinced there's a big problem, the politicians will dare to propose a more simple life and take real action.

Getting a kitten can't hurt either I think...

ps Happy birthday!

yeah, thats what i expect.
no cats, love em, but they are much too destructive to the environment.

human are a virus

Totally. And if you agree with this Solo, then you agree with me, there is no future.

@solo said:

Well then....

Happy birthday to you.

The good news, wars in the future will not be fought over religion or oil, but over access to drinkable water.

Get a puppy and you'll feel better.

So that's good news? And I agree, and after that? Don't you care?
(I do have a dog and she does make me feel better).

And this is nothing!
Have you thinked of the Univers in general ?
It's no more joyful for it! Big Crunch, Big Bounce, Big Rip, Big Freeze, Big Slurp...
I wish that fortify simulate you!

and happy birthday!

Happy b'day Baz!

I think the next gen of young people will administer the most change. This planet is still largely run by the hippy/punk generation who have ties to fuel and weapons industry.

So they might be in for a few decades of manmade natural disasters but at least they seed the next gen approach to caring for the planet.

Or we end up finding out the earth is flat and where are simply in the matrix.

A few decades? Some scientists are saying its already too late. And 20/30 years is way too late.

I'd love to go sailing but it's snowing and -9°C.

Skating?

It does work exactly the same in SU2017 as it has in all other versions. I just did it not five minutes ago in SU2017.

As always, you need to be clicking on two endpoints or intersections. Or you can hold Ctrl while clicking the first point.

C'mon Dave, we knew that. Go sailing!
