… Some work-in-progress stages of my angry Luigi, made in SDF Modeler (see previous post for download link).

Ported my Luigi from SDF Modeler to Blender for a Cycles rendering.

The left image is rendered with Cycles, the right one with SDF Modeler's renderer.

The difference in efficiency between SDF 3D and polygonal 3D. 😁

And I've got file compression turned on in Blender, otherwise the file would be even bigger. 😅

@nico @metin huge difference, can you explain what SDF is in terms a simpleton like me can understand? looks useful for the demoscene...
Show threadMetin Seven 🎨1d ago

@dm319 @nico SDF actually originated from the demoscene. 😃👍 It's essentially math describing a shape based on the distance between points in shader space. It can be 2D or 3D. E.g. a sphere is sqrt(x²+y²+z²)-r . To visualize the mathematical shapes, a method like ray-marching is used, comparable with voxelization.

@metin @nico That's very cool!

@metin Could you post a wire shot of the geo, I suppose high.

@metin Blender that is 😉
Show threadMetin Seven 🎨8h ago

@mbt3d 👍 Here you go. It's decadently high-poly. Cycles has no problems with that, so there was no need for decimation. 🙂

The polygon structure that's generated from the SDF volumes is comparable to Blender's OpenVDB Remesh: smoothed voxelization.

@metin Wow! That is insane, thanks Metin!
Show threadMetin Seven 🎨7h ago
@mbt3d 🙂👍 You can control the shape detail inside SDF Modeler, which also reflects in the polygon count of mesh exports. Alternatively, you can decimate in Blender after importing the mesh(es).

@metin It would be nice if Blender supported these CAD formats natively and not just polygons. One day I am sure...

@mbt3d @metin

The free extension Surface Psycho is supporting some CAD I/O.

@DBG3D @mbt3d @pafurijaz Yeah, SDF still needs a standard file exchange format, but that's tricky, as each SDF editor has its own techniques and primitive shapes.

@metin @DBG3D @mbt3d
If you’re talking about SDF modeling, then what I’m about to say isn’t the answer you were looking for. However, if you’re interested in support for generic CAD formats, things are moving in the right direction, but the project is in its early stages. All of this is thanks to the excellent work done by Romain Guimbal, he’s just getting started, but he’s already accomplished a lot.

@pafurijaz @DBG3D @mbt3d Nice! Yeah, I was referring to SDF in response to Mark, but David was referring to NURBS I guess. 🙂

SDF and NURBS don't differ that much. Both are implicit 3D methods, while polygons are explicit. NURBS uses implicit iso-geometry, while SDF uses implicit volumes. Both feature beveling and blending with varying levels of continuity, and both need to be meshed if you want polygon models.
