Full Version: Nvil or Blender

I found this post on the Nvil forum where the developer of NVIL states Rocket3F is based on NVIL

Rocket 3F is a special version of Nvil. It is customized in a way that the customizer thinks it is the best organizing base on his modeling knowledge and experience. Basically Rocket is not customizable. So it is only suitable for people who find it easy to adapt to its fixed workflow.

Ironically, it was I who asked the question about NVIL vs Rocket3F.

Damned Arrimus 3D has also erased its videos! :(

ARRIMUS! That's the bloke I was thinking of. Love his tutorials. He seemed to cover most of the major 3D apps.

I firmly believe IF MOI3D got more exposure most people would immediately fall in love with it.

MOI3D has one of the most intuitive guis of any 3D app. Perhaps some of them should hire Mr Gibson to re-write their user interfaces adapt the Gibson GUI!! After all there is already a guitar named after him!!! LOL

I would love to tap into some of the more advanced features of MOI3D as I realize I am not fully utilizing the power of this amazing app, however the lack of tutorials I believe is holding this app back.

Hehe, that Rocket guy seemed a bit bipolar or something. He was super into MoI, created tons of videos, and then suddenly got pissed and started insulting users who were too "hobbyist" for his taste. As retaliation, he removed all his tutorials and videos. Then he saw an opportunity to sell them for a little while. Eventually, he gave up on 3D, only to come back a few months later with a reskinned version of Nvil, trying to promote it here because it has a "bridge" that was actually based on Max Smirnov scripts. Looks like that project is gone now too.

Software comes and goes—even expensive commercial ones can just vanish (like Modo or Clarisse). That’s one reason to stick with Blender. I have to admit, Nvil has been around for quite a while too. While poly modeling is fairly standard across tools, the learning curve can still be steep. You still find artists using XSI, even though it’s been dead for a decade, because switching to something else is tough once you've mastered it.

I do not much about Andrei.

However I did know Rocket3F was based upon NVIL.

I have an earlier post where I asked the creator of NVIL on the NVIL forms what the relationship was between NVIL and Rocket3F where he replied Rocket3F is a version of NVIL aimed at artists.
I guess it is sort of like Blender and BlenderForArtist.

I agree about 3D software coming and going. I used to use and love Hexagon but it too is like Studebaker Motor Car Company. Gone. As well as Groboto3D, e-onsoftware's Vue (I still use Vue and Groboto3D).

Wings3D is still around and maintained and a very capable modeler. An app I love very much but lacked some of the features Hexagon and Silo had.

Amapi is no more, Silo3D stopped development for a few years but is back. Truespace3D is gone and had one of the most terrible user interfaces of all.

Bryce3D has stopped development for a very long time.

@KENMO

Did anyone said Truespace3D :)
Its somewhat still alive.

Caligary made it public some years ago
here a Link

The French Eric Wenger the creator of Bryce made after more Music progs! ;)

I believe e-onsoftware's Vue was also developed by a French programmer.

---

Seems Vue 2024 is free!

Yes it is. Bentley has abandoned further development of Vue after purchasing it a few years prior from e-onsoftware.

I was on their yearly subscription and had pre-paid for an year or two in advance. And NO refund was offered.

Vladimir Chopine (Geekatplay) offers some of the best Vue tutorials on youtube.

Vue is my preferred renderer for my MOI, Blender and 3D Coat models I've created.

I find much easier to use then Bryce.

Vue is no a slow render ?

---

Vue has always included a render engine and depending on which settings you use, it is no longer slow. I find the recent Vue to render within reasonable amount of time.
