Blender, oh Blender. I hate you so much but I'm far, far too used to you to finally make a permanent switch to Maya or Max.

I'm trying to optimize a Mixamo Fuse mesh for Unity by combining all the submeshes into one. However, I think that I have discovered a bug when the UV mapping data of all selected objects is destroyed, leaving only the "active" mesh's UV data intact. I spend an hour on Google, typing every variation of "Combine UV maps" that I can think of. The only mentions of my situation say that it's a bug. I'm about to call it quits for the night when I notice a little tab called "UV Layers". I open it, and discover that the UV data of each combined submesh is being saved into its own layer, and I can merge the layers just by naming them to the same thing before joining the meshes. No mention of this in Google. I didn't even see it in the documentation.

I hate Blender so much. Why couldn't I have learned Max/Maya first? But no, I learned Blender first, so that's the one I know the most about, and that's the one I open by reflex.

Blender, oh Blender.

My hate for you is as vast as my familiarity.

If only I could cast you from my mind, cast your continence from my hands.

You are my devil, but one I shall never relinquish

I don't mind Blender personally. I mean, I can do very basic things in it but it seems pretty decent to me.

[Frumple]

Clearly you need to burn a copy of blender to CD and blend it, it's. Blend a copy of blender in effigy. Maybe mail the results to whoever coded the thing.

I forgot to mention this but itisnotlogical you do know that you can upload the .fuse file to the Mixamo site and then download it as a .fbx that has been optimised for Unity, right? It also lets you add animations through this and download the animated model, as long as the animation is free of course.

The President of Finland is going to visit my high school on Monday. -- Why is Sauli carpin' Niinistö going to visit such a small school in such a small town?

Apparently, the answer is that when he graduated high school, he came to this town's Casino to celebrate, and has fond memories of the sunny beaches.

The visit itself was pretty uninteresting, if very casual and comedic at times. Most questions asked were relatively unimportant personal questions. The questions I wrote out got censored, apparently too political for the casual atmosphere.

Yeah, I downloaded the "optimized" model. It... wasn't much different from the plain .fbx file. I think maybe the textures are a bit smaller. There's no texture atlases or material combining to reduce draw calls. Maybe it somehow accounts for something in Mecanim, but I couldn't tell the difference. The really cool thing that the Mixamo site does is auto-rigging, which so far has rigged every Fuse character perfectly.

But I digress, the specific thing that led me to start merging meshes was the facial blendshapes. To create a blink animation on the model as-is, you'd need to create different keyframes for the eyelids and the eyelashes, because the lashes are a separate mesh with their own list of blendshapes independent of the main body. Merging the two makes my life much easier.

... mind sharing the questions? Inquiring minds are mildly curious :V

[Neonivek]

Man I really need to stop getting into arguments "to win it" so to speak and just let people say their mind.

I wasn't returned the paper, and I didn't really try to memorize them, but here's two, paraphrased:

"What do You (formal) think of nations currently seeking independence, such as Scotland or Catalonia?"
"If You could freely redraw the national borders of Europe, what would you change?"

Most of my questions were about foreign politics, really. Instead, we got fairly trivial questions such as "Who is, in Your opinion, the most interesting person You know?" and "What is Your shoe size?"

Man I really need to stop getting into arguments "to win it" so to speak and just let people say their mind.

They say that if you 'win' a debate, nobody has learned anything, thus it was naught but a pointless argument. It is indeed a good idea to listen to your 'opponent' and hear their view on the matter.

Means it's been reported a ton. I don't have to imply who by.

8chan has always been known (jokingly or not) as "the *chan where mods and are a bit lenient in regards to CP" so its really not a surprise. Or it may just be SJWs desperately trying to shut off people who disagree with them by abusing the report function, again.

It is definitely at least 50% SJW
