I just installed Blender 4, and I must say, the new improved snapping is actually quite neat! ✨ In case you missed it, you can now press B to set base point when you move things. Allows you to precisely snap vertex to vertex! We needed it for a loooooong time🔥

Did you know that in Blender you can easily bend objects in edit mode by pressing Shift+W? ✨ 1. Select the geometry to bend from 2. Press Shift+S,2 to place the 3d cursor there 3. Select the geometry to bend 4. Press Shift+W to bend! Important: when you're pressing Shift+W, hover your mouse over the geo you're trying to bend, like shown in the video! Bonus: by placing the 3d cursor slightly off center and holding ALT (to disable clamping) while bending, you can easily create spirals! #b3d

You can cook a dreamUV hotspot atlas in ucupaint just by baking a texture on a bunch of boxes 🥰 You get game-ready edgewear on any geometry in one click made entirely in Blender. Both addons are free and open-source too Blender became so goated its not even funny anymore

Hi! I'm working on a FREE all-in-one node-powered Blender addon called Quick Menu. It's planned to be released in the beginning of next year for Blender 4.1 ✨ Here are all of the new tools that I've made for it so far. There's more to come! Follow me for updates! ♥️

Speaking of hot reloading, what surprised me in Godot is that script changes are synced to your running game too. And it happens instantly. Which is kinda amazing tbh. Gotta iterate fast 🏎️

Did you know that in Blender you can easily animate oscillating objects with a single driver expression? ✨ 1. Select your object 2. In its rotation write: "# sin(frame / 300 * pi * 2 * 3) * 0.5" where 3 is the number of swings it does, and 0.5 is the amplitude multiplier (use a bigger number for bigger swings), and 300 is your end frame 3. Enjoy the perfect loop! #b3d

Did you know that in Blender you can easily make insets with the 'Intersect Knife' operator? ✨ 1. Select the geometry you want to cut out 2. Press Ctrl+F,K 3. Remove the original geometry and select the newly cut faces 4. Press Ctrl+F,F to extrude along normals Important: when you're extruding faces along normals, be sure to also press S after you press Ctrl+F,F to enable the "Even Thickness" option for a better result! So the full shortcut is Ctrl+F,F,S (yes, really) #b3d

Hi, I made an Island Randomization node tool in Blender 4 🙌 It allows you to quickly randomize selected elements right in edit mode! No pythons were hurt in the creation of this tool! 🐍 Node tree below 🌳👇

I just can't with this game engine, take it away from me. There's local gravity in Area3D. You can set it to any vector in inspector. No code. And it's a built-in feature... like what

Did you know that in Blender you can easily boolean in edit mode without any modifiers? ✨ 1. Select the geometry you want to cut out 2. Press Ctrl+F,R 3. ??? 4. Profit! Important: Make sure you don't have any coplanar faces when you boolean, always pre-scale things a little bit to make sure the geometry you want to cut out sticks out of geometry you want to cut out FROM. Not even the new "Exact" solver can handle coplanar faces #b3d
