What I did today in blender

Today I worked on the house. I added cloth physics to the flag in the yard of the house. I was intimidated about using the cloth modifier but, it was not that bad. I have not used the cloth modifier that much.

Then it was on to the 14th and final video of the tutorial. Since it would take forever to render in cycles I switched to Evee which rendered the scene quickly. I have about 20 minutes more of the tutorial to watch.

After I finish the tutorial I want to start my own house or building project. I will think about what I want to make.

What I did in blender today

The other day in blender I finished adding the textures and got most of the particles done for the house I am working on.

I had problems with weight painting. First I did not notice that I had the weight paint on 0. Then I had problems subdividing the ground plane. So I was not able to weight paint so I deleted the ground plane and sub divided a new plane.

Then I got rid of that plane and went back to the original ground plane. So I was able to get weight paint to work so that I could get the rocks to be where I wanted them. So that is where I left off the other day.

Then I though oh, no I did not back up the blender file so I will have to redo all my work since it was not saved. It turns out I had nothing to worry about. I had backed up the blender file so today I started where I left off.

So I was able to make a particle system for the grass easily. The screen shot shoes what the house looks like.

Working with Material nodes and textures particles are two of my week spots in blender and I think doing the tutorial has made me better in those areas. Below is a screenshot of the house.

I learned about replit from

a linked learning class I am working through called python for non-programmers. I had searched for a website where I could write python but, I could not find one to my liking.

Probably because I am not that good at using a search engine. I was glad to learn about replit. In addition to python I can also use other programming languages including lua and love2d.
