#Plasticity3D just rolled out a new feature that everyone's going to love! You can now import #SubD models, but not using the usual old method, this implementation is better than anything I've tried over the years. I haven't used Alias so I can't compare, but I can definitely say it's the best one out of all the ones I've tested all is G2.
Plus, you can model in #Blender and update the model straight into Plasticity3D. #b3d #CAD

Source? Trust me Bro..🤣

Finally, with vertex snapping, #Bézier curves in Blender are a breeze to use, so I switched back to my original method (since 2015) for building #SubD model. It gives me nice, even patches and full control over the density. #b3d
Sooner or later I will be able to do it, for now it seems that something is improving, I managed to create an #IGES file exported directly by #Blender, and also a #STEP file always with the same #Python add-on. #b3d #CAD #SubD #nurbs
I've asked to #AI, an add-on to export #SubD to #NURBS from #b3d, the add-on managed to export something to both IGES and STEP, there are no errors, the exported files contain data structures but unfortunately any #CAD app managed to open those, although that seem like a failure, it's not, in fact it is the first time that I get an add-on that exports both in #IGES and in #STEP directly from #Blender without using external library, maybe next time I could be able to have a working add-on.
I'm not happy with this, but it was an overrated application, as well as being very expensive, for what it offered, with exceptional marketing behind it, important contacts in the #VFX industry that allowed it to take advantage of an undeserved advantage, in some videos they mocked other applications, but in the end, they decided to stop development, a shame for those who believed in this project. #modo #Foundry #2D #mesh #SubD #b3d #Blender #Blender3D
#CAD model vs #SubD, with a little slight difference on bevel radius #Plasticity3d #Blender3D. #b3d
Just for fun, I've redone it with #SubD and quad topology with edge loops, in #Blender3D, total time 15 minutes. #b3d #Blender
