WEBVTT 00:00.330 --> 00:08.670 Welcome to adding more detail in this video you will go and do some organization to the outline before 00:08.670 --> 00:14.580 things get out of hand if it's like minors at the moment it's not too bad but it's starting to get a 00:14.580 --> 00:19.230 tiny bit unwieldy and we need to make sure we name things appropriately. 00:19.800 --> 00:27.050 We'll get an elodie B level besch object ready to be linked into our main scene. 00:27.090 --> 00:30.260 So let's go hop straight on over in a blender. 00:31.330 --> 00:35.730 So I am going to go ahead now and open up my. 00:35.860 --> 00:37.000 Oh where is it here. 00:37.000 --> 00:37.830 Front door. 00:37.850 --> 00:40.200 That's work on the front door itself. 00:40.390 --> 00:47.140 I'm going to make the U.S. image editor a bit smaller but I'm going to be using that in a few moments. 00:47.170 --> 00:49.500 So let's go ahead here and just have a look at this. 00:49.550 --> 00:53.330 Outliner itself it's a bit of a mess. 00:53.350 --> 00:57.300 So the first thing we can do here is create a couple of empties to organize things. 00:57.310 --> 00:58.860 I know immediately. 00:58.900 --> 01:00.840 I need to be in object mode. 01:01.090 --> 01:06.610 I know immediately I'm going to need an empty and I'm going to use a plain access as I do normally and 01:06.610 --> 01:18.190 I'm going to call 1 elodie a lady a barm also going to here put in there that is the holder because 01:18.190 --> 01:20.850 that's what it's doing is your elda. 01:20.920 --> 01:27.220 Now the reason why I've done that is when we import them into another scene none of these have. 01:27.220 --> 01:30.600 When we link them they all come across as objects. 01:30.610 --> 01:37.570 Little square blocks because their object data it doesn't tell us what type of object they actually 01:37.570 --> 01:40.250 are which can be a little bit confusing. 01:40.260 --> 01:41.230 On first glance. 01:41.230 --> 01:43.150 And if you haven't named them correctly. 01:43.330 --> 01:48.470 Well that's going to be a very sore point as you start moving things about. 01:48.580 --> 01:58.060 So I've duplicated those two air load D and I'm going to make it an elodie B Holder and the other one 01:58.120 --> 02:01.010 is going to be called archive. 02:04.150 --> 02:06.390 Oh I can't spell archive but there we go. 02:06.470 --> 02:09.730 And I am looking around my model itself. 02:09.740 --> 02:13.440 If I enable these things I really do like this smooth arch way. 02:13.490 --> 02:18.350 I'm going to go with my block working set so I'm going to move those two archway profiles. 02:18.350 --> 02:22.390 Bear in mind there curve objects anyway to the archway profile. 02:22.640 --> 02:27.950 Now this archway array is going to hold down control there and make sure I turn off everything under 02:27.950 --> 02:30.440 the archive empty there. 02:30.770 --> 02:35.880 So I want this one that's the one I want to move across so I will move those two. 02:35.900 --> 02:41.210 I'm not going to rename them at the moment but I'm going to move those two into the elodie be holder. 02:41.480 --> 02:47.990 I've got an l o d b front door and that is the actual door itself something to put that there. 02:48.020 --> 02:54.540 The elodie that needs to go into there and the archway itself is that the. 02:54.890 --> 03:00.500 I'm not sure what that one is that's hide everything else would be useful to have the actual doorway 03:00.500 --> 03:01.740 on itself. 03:01.940 --> 03:03.190 The elodie be archway. 03:03.440 --> 03:05.900 Ah yes that's the one we extruded manually. 03:05.930 --> 03:09.790 Im not going to use that one at all but Im not going to delete it at the moment. 03:09.950 --> 03:11.360 Im going to call this L O D. 03:11.400 --> 03:18.410 B Well it's not elodie I don't want to confuse it with the actual l'eau mesh mesh when we solidify it 03:18.410 --> 03:19.060 in a bit. 03:19.160 --> 03:21.850 I'm going to call this extruded arch way. 03:22.340 --> 03:23.660 Might as well say what it is. 03:23.660 --> 03:24.180 Hey. 03:24.500 --> 03:26.600 Okay and I'm going to pop that in the archive. 03:26.600 --> 03:27.600 This was out of way. 03:27.620 --> 03:32.510 Of course if you really don't want those you can just get rid of them just delete them out of your scene 03:32.510 --> 03:34.780 especially if you're using version control. 03:34.910 --> 03:39.200 If you are using birth control then you don't have to worry about doing any of this because you can 03:39.200 --> 03:42.360 always go back to how it was at this point anyway. 03:42.560 --> 03:47.300 Now I am using version the job I just want to show you this particular option later on when I start 03:47.300 --> 03:52.960 trimming out all of the nonsense are probably want to get rid of anything. 03:52.970 --> 03:58.940 I really am not using just to keep things simple so the archway array that we've got here that needs 03:58.940 --> 04:00.010 to be moved to l.a.. 04:00.010 --> 04:04.730 DP Okay so now we've got that I'm going to turn off elodie and go to the B. 04:04.740 --> 04:06.160 Service is what we want we want. 04:06.160 --> 04:10.960 This is one solid object so we can just import it as a whole. 04:10.970 --> 04:13.040 The issue is of course at the moment. 04:13.040 --> 04:16.130 This isn't one mesh object. 04:16.130 --> 04:22.790 It is a combination of two mesh objects and a control curve and a series modifiers. 04:22.790 --> 04:28.160 So we're going to have to be careful about how we go ahead and apply these things because some of them 04:28.340 --> 04:31.770 once we've applied them we can't undo them again. 04:31.790 --> 04:35.650 So with that in mind I want to join all of these bits together. 04:35.660 --> 04:41.060 But first of all let's get all the texturing and everything else sorted so the wall itself. 04:41.060 --> 04:43.370 I'm going to switch over to ren mode. 04:43.370 --> 04:50.780 The wall itself is going to have the same material wall door material now is not quite there yet because 04:50.780 --> 04:56.420 we have not unwrapped it to tell it how to put the texture on the wall so the material is already set 04:56.420 --> 04:57.610 up with the texture in it. 04:57.620 --> 05:01.200 We just not defined how the texture is mapped so I'm going to go into it. 05:01.240 --> 05:07.370 I'm going to come out of rended mode go into edit mode select everything hit you and smart use projects 05:07.760 --> 05:09.170 that worked before it should work. 05:09.170 --> 05:16.160 Now I'm going to pivot this around the 3-d cursor it's already selected to select everything and just 05:16.210 --> 05:19.580 scale it up so it's roughly right again at this point in time. 05:19.640 --> 05:24.200 It doesn't really matter if it's not accurate because were bound to make some changes once we start 05:24.200 --> 05:29.210 building up detail the changes themselves are the detail essentially. 05:29.210 --> 05:31.790 So with this in mind let's hop into surrendered mode. 05:31.790 --> 05:38.420 That's absolutely fine if I go ahead in object mode and select the bits going around the outside. 05:38.420 --> 05:40.940 The brick work and going to call it brick work. 05:41.350 --> 05:44.740 I am going to give that a new material. 05:44.900 --> 05:51.050 I call it brick work or no no arch block work or something along those lines. 05:51.140 --> 05:55.690 If I call it brick work that kind of got a different meaning I want to avoid. 05:55.910 --> 06:00.070 I want to avoid confusing myself because it's so easily done. 06:00.170 --> 06:02.330 I can give it whatever colour you want. 06:02.330 --> 06:07.010 I'm going to go a bit outlandish at this point in time I can always change at any point but just to 06:07.010 --> 06:12.680 make sure it's really apparent that the materials have come across individually after we've joined all 06:12.680 --> 06:14.770 this lot together. 06:14.900 --> 06:17.130 So looking at the modifiers tab. 06:17.150 --> 06:23.530 What's going on here is you've got a layer or a layer here of four modifiers in total. 06:23.630 --> 06:28.760 And some of them when we turn on and off dont make any difference whatsoever in terms of the general 06:28.760 --> 06:34.970 layout and in this case I would do want to keep it as low poly as possible so I am going to actually 06:34.970 --> 06:41.210 just turn off the subsurface modify it's not difficult to reapply any points that aren't any special 06:41.210 --> 06:43.310 settings I've just gone for too. 06:43.520 --> 06:47.820 So with that in mind I'm literally going to delete it from here. 06:47.840 --> 06:51.850 The array defines the length of the repeat. 06:52.700 --> 06:55.200 And the curve defines its shape. 06:55.280 --> 07:02.240 That's sorted now if I had if I was doing this with a bit more detail I would probably remake the curve 07:02.270 --> 07:09.110 so it stops halfway and then that mirror that's around and around the other way as well so it comes 07:09.110 --> 07:15.030 on both sides of the door and that way we get a much better lump at the very top. 07:15.560 --> 07:19.530 So it's not well so it's not asymmetric so symmetrical at the top. 07:19.670 --> 07:28.070 So with that in mind we are going to go ahead now and solidify these and make firm into one object. 07:28.070 --> 07:34.010 Now that we've clicked apply we've got to mesh objects left in the scene so that the arch way first 07:34.400 --> 07:38.770 and then the thing rejoining too which is the block work behind. 07:38.770 --> 07:43.430 And I'm really going to hop out of here so I can see what I am selecting Also we've got a dark orange 07:43.430 --> 07:49.970 around everything that's selected and then finally the active object has the light orange and go control 07:50.000 --> 07:57.720 and J that's now join them together into one mesh but it's retained all of those material properties. 07:57.830 --> 08:06.320 And that now if I make sure the naming is appropriate so elodie be front door I dont need one there. 08:07.050 --> 08:15.680 Ldv front door that is what I will need to import when I go to my main scene and with that in mind I've 08:15.680 --> 08:17.760 got a challenge for you guys. 08:19.520 --> 08:25.490 Now this challenge can be as big or as small as you like but I would like you to up your models to l'eau 08:25.490 --> 08:33.430 dbe status so increase the level of detail of your building blocks you are using in your scene. 08:33.480 --> 08:39.350 You don't really have to up the level of detail of a wall segment at this point in time and you certainly 08:39.350 --> 08:41.580 need to be careful around the perimeter. 08:41.600 --> 08:45.880 Otherwise you cause it to look horrible when they're joined together. 08:45.980 --> 08:50.500 We'll go into more detail of how to ensure that works properly later on. 08:50.720 --> 08:54.770 And I'd like you to link them back into your main scene. 08:55.580 --> 08:56.310 Remember. 08:56.360 --> 09:00.670 Replace your elodie a parts with elodie be. 09:00.800 --> 09:02.540 Where appropriate. 09:02.540 --> 09:08.060 So if you don't need the extra level of detail don't worry about adding it's at that point. 09:08.180 --> 09:13.060 As I said off the wall parts I'm not going to do anything to that at the moment. 09:13.490 --> 09:19.160 And of course the floor the walls and the floor at the moment can stay as solid blocks. 09:19.160 --> 09:21.960 We don't need any extra detail at this point in time. 09:22.370 --> 09:25.030 So both video now and give that a go. 09:28.430 --> 09:29.060 Okay guys. 09:29.090 --> 09:29.980 Welcome back. 09:30.200 --> 09:33.550 Let's go get my doorway into my scene. 09:35.700 --> 09:42.570 Right so let's go ahead and make sure that it is saved before we do anything else and open my Gothic 09:42.570 --> 09:43.660 church scene. 09:43.860 --> 09:48.840 So let's go ahead and as you can see here set it so it renders a bit vertically from the outside from 09:48.840 --> 09:49.730 this camera. 09:49.830 --> 09:57.030 And just to show you guys real quick and then we'll link this other part in I have literally just reverse 09:57.060 --> 09:58.320 the resolutions here. 09:58.320 --> 10:00.770 So instead of being ten feet wide. 10:00.870 --> 10:01.210 Sorry. 10:01.220 --> 10:09.060 920 wide it's 920 high by 10 feet wide and that gives us a wide screen on its side anyway anyway so 10:09.090 --> 10:14.040 let's go in and first of all go and grab that so we need to link the file. 10:14.340 --> 10:18.710 Go to our meshes our front door object. 10:18.720 --> 10:19.290 And here we go. 10:19.290 --> 10:26.040 This is why I was saying naming is really important because if we have lots of things that were similar 10:26.040 --> 10:30.090 in names then you wouldn't be able to pick which one it was and you can see here they've all were the 10:30.120 --> 10:31.880 object data block. 10:31.950 --> 10:37.080 Now of course you can filter in the menu of options at the very top. 10:37.080 --> 10:38.550 Here we can turn turn on. 10:38.550 --> 10:41.980 Is this seen as a curve is it an object. 10:42.060 --> 10:43.140 Is it a mesh. 10:43.140 --> 10:45.670 Well not in this part of it. 10:45.800 --> 10:46.370 Etc.. 10:46.380 --> 10:52.940 So we can filter up the top here and we can hold down Shift to term more than one of those on an arm 10:53.010 --> 10:57.260 can move them all turned otherwise you can get very confusing and I'm going to go ahead and link in 10:57.270 --> 10:59.220 the front door. 10:59.220 --> 11:00.010 There it is. 11:00.030 --> 11:04.000 And I'm not sure what layer it's on at the moment has it gone to the right now. 11:04.010 --> 11:05.040 Yes it has. 11:05.070 --> 11:12.600 And of course I need to select that and make it a proxy then I can start doing things with it. 11:12.630 --> 11:18.990 So we've got a couple of options here as to what I want to replace so I've used the archway itself at 11:18.990 --> 11:23.980 the very top of my church but I dont know at the moment whether I want the fancy bit around it. 11:24.570 --> 11:28.020 But I know I certainly want this one down here. 11:28.020 --> 11:31.720 So this obviously has own object data block here. 11:31.770 --> 11:34.560 Now we just go and try and change that. 11:34.560 --> 11:38.050 My initial thought was that would be the one of the best ways around doing it. 11:38.050 --> 11:39.510 I can't type that in there. 11:39.510 --> 11:41.890 I need to first of all select here. 11:42.060 --> 11:45.050 If I now go and type in d e. 11:45.840 --> 11:47.050 And a school B. 11:47.070 --> 11:49.320 There it is the front or proxy. 11:49.350 --> 11:50.740 It doesn't actually do anything. 11:50.850 --> 11:55.410 It literally just changes backwards and forwards all the time. 11:55.410 --> 11:58.260 What we need to do is change the mesh data. 11:58.260 --> 12:02.160 So lets go to the mesh data part of it and select elodie. 12:02.160 --> 12:04.300 Front Door 1. 12:04.560 --> 12:05.450 There we go. 12:05.550 --> 12:06.390 That's in there. 12:06.510 --> 12:13.300 Now the one thing that we've got so be careful with here is when we've got multiple objects in our scene. 12:13.380 --> 12:18.000 So we've got another one of these doors over here and I can't select everything else. 12:18.000 --> 12:20.950 Now I've selected this one and changed it over. 12:21.060 --> 12:24.460 So what I could do before actually applying them. 12:24.480 --> 12:30.600 Let's do it with the walls for instance so those silly with the walls we selected the walls and then 12:30.600 --> 12:36.000 we can use our linking options as we've done in the past when we've been creating these and moving them 12:36.000 --> 12:36.700 about. 12:36.840 --> 12:46.400 So I can go shift in how to select all of the ones that share the same object data and then it's highlighted 12:46.470 --> 12:49.170 all of the wall 40 force. 12:49.170 --> 12:57.720 Now I can go in and go and change that by clicking making the act the selected active one misword down 12:57.720 --> 12:58.670 at the bottom. 13:00.120 --> 13:05.910 Because that's already in the scene can also change one of these to the door and then go control and 13:05.970 --> 13:13.230 L. And then we can make a link and if we do object data we end up with big doors all over the place 13:13.530 --> 13:16.210 or Windows of course if they're high up. 13:16.620 --> 13:23.100 I can then set it back again if I wanted to but since I'm just toying around here I'm just going to 13:23.160 --> 13:24.240 undo. 13:24.450 --> 13:28.890 Of course now I can go in and move the other parts in as well. 13:29.340 --> 13:31.850 And I will see you guys back in a few moments. 13:31.860 --> 13:33.580 Well are those Zen. 13:35.800 --> 13:42.120 So I'm midway through constructing my window piece at the moment and few things as you can see the outliner 13:42.160 --> 13:44.480 is nice and neat at the moment. 13:44.500 --> 13:51.100 One of the things I've realised is that I want to use the material that I created in the last project 13:51.510 --> 13:57.090 of the actual door the blockwork I think I called it BLOCK What door block wrote archway blockwork. 13:57.100 --> 14:02.050 I think what it is anyway I can go in and go file link. 14:02.320 --> 14:04.970 And as we are more ready I've already gone to it. 14:04.980 --> 14:10.690 But I need to go to my front door blend file into the material this time not the object but we want 14:10.690 --> 14:15.110 to go and grab the material and there is Arch and blockwork. 14:15.190 --> 14:21.130 Once I've linked that I can make sure I've got the appropriate mesh selected and under the materials 14:21.130 --> 14:24.880 tab here we can see it's linked and apply it to there. 14:24.880 --> 14:32.380 I've also decided to make the texture slightly smaller because I don't think it was making it look a 14:32.380 --> 14:35.440 bit Noddy's actually the blocks are looked far too big. 14:35.440 --> 14:38.070 I think this is a better scale for them. 14:38.080 --> 14:43.330 One thing we have to watch out for with scale is repetition starts to become more and more apparent 14:43.340 --> 14:50.080 the more and more you scale or tile a particular mesh even if it is already a tiling texture it can 14:50.080 --> 14:51.970 become apparent that you've tiled it. 14:52.090 --> 14:53.380 If we're not careful. 14:53.500 --> 14:56.120 But that's absolutely fine and it also the other ones as well. 14:56.170 --> 15:01.780 I'll continue working on this particular model and I'll see you guys again in a few moments. 15:01.780 --> 15:07.570 So now I've brought the window itself into the scene as well everything's coming together nicely and 15:07.570 --> 15:16.360 this is going to give me a basically go ahead or not on whether the textures themselves I need to do 15:16.360 --> 15:17.020 the wall. 15:17.020 --> 15:19.700 So here we go being lean about only to do the wall as well. 15:19.810 --> 15:22.810 But whether the textures themselves if that's the right size. 15:22.810 --> 15:25.160 Now that does look much better. 15:25.300 --> 15:29.830 I'm going to change the wall and see how that looks as well because that takes up a vast majority of 15:29.830 --> 15:32.190 the entire rest of the model. 15:33.070 --> 15:40.000 Okay so we're back in the church hop into random mode and that blog post you can see a bit of repetition 15:40.030 --> 15:43.520 but otherwise that is looking pretty good. 15:43.540 --> 15:47.600 Does it match up with the model underneath. 15:47.950 --> 15:51.070 Yes it does it pretty seamlessly as well. 15:51.070 --> 15:52.990 I'm liking how this is coming on. 15:52.990 --> 15:57.400 I might go ahead and obviously change the colour of this. 15:57.490 --> 16:02.260 It's almost terracotta at the moment and we can see one of those rendering artefacts that I've mentioned 16:02.260 --> 16:05.580 coming through just on this area here. 16:05.650 --> 16:10.840 So I still need to sort out the actual alignment of the building and lots of other things to do with 16:10.840 --> 16:11.410 that. 16:11.600 --> 16:14.710 But I did want to make sure I got all the brickwork and everything right. 16:14.710 --> 16:18.430 First before I start messing around the underlying structure. 16:18.730 --> 16:23.230 How did you guys get on how are your elodie Level be piece coming along. 16:23.230 --> 16:27.840 Please share them in the discussions and I will see you guys in the next lecture.
