What do you consider best practice when it comes to vehicle modeling? Especially for games? Do you prefer to have super clean topology and make sure everything always connects properly, or do you say fuck it and not even bother connecting tubes, framing, bolts, standoffs, and similar details and ju...

Need some advice.

Maybe I should use my gamedev skills to use godot as some FOSS after effects and premiere, and just make something like a VN that autoplays. Pretty sure making this video using my own cheap 3D style as some video renders, would be much much easier than making a videogame.

I hate Blender 4.4

I hate the fucking animation slots. What possessed them to take something that was simple and worked perfectly well and make it complicated for the sake of complicity. I can no longer export animations from blender to unreal because all the animations are the same. >Clearly keyframed jump animation?...
