I've just started using Super Duper Batch Exporter (extensions.blender.org/add-ons/supe...) and it's working well so far. It has a set location option (so you can put it on 0,0,0).

This is a stylized wood planks configurator I created a couple of years ago. It was my intro to parameters in Substance 3D Designer.
The next time was a jump to my Concrete Generator, with 234 params, used together seamlessly to create virtually endless combinations from scratch with custom inputs.

I truly can't stress this enough: No one's art is good enough to justify them being miserable to work with. Almost everyone I've worked with has been wonderful, but the handful of folks that weren't brought the whole team down by being egotistical, sexist, condescending, etc.

Anyone pushing one true correct way to do the job has not been in enough studios or on enough projects. You use the tools that do the job and tasks assigned and more than likely just the personal preference of who ever is making tools at the time
was using Maya and 3ds max at the same time last game

Saw a LinkedIn post polarizing Maya+Substance as the "Industry Standard".
There is no Standard
We do not have an Industry anymore.

Got the other side glued up using every clamp I own holding it in place but this is how they look when done, after the legs fell off Sunday this was my solution with nice deep dowels. This will have a unit on top that will be heavy over time with stored materials so more wood seems good #woodworking

First @lightboxexpo.com in the books! This weekend was great. Helping students, juniors and educators with our experiences during such a tumultuous time in the industry has been eye opening. It was also good to see colleagues from PlayStation, Art Institute and even from Universal Studios!

Netease just went straight to my folio to copy/paste elements of my personal work to create their official concept art for their Wakanda map.
I tried to get answers for a while but no replies from them so here we are.
You can check one of them Dm'ing me on X.

Recently finished this book & it’s very different from the movie. I have a few opinions on how empathy and mercerism plays a huge part in the overall theme of the story and how humans are just as devoid of empathy as the androids they hunted, but imma have to sit and stew with my thoughts abit more!
