Hexagon Essentials Hexagon Essentials 2018/12/22 12:17 1/4 Hexagon Essentials Hexagon Essentials Product Name: Hexagon Essential Tips Product ID: 57443 Published Artist(s): Arki, Cgan Created By: N/A Release Date: 2018-12-18 Product Information Required Products: None A current, up-to-date tutorial in Hexagon using the most current version of the software available at the time of this tutorial's creation. Documentation Center - http://docs.daz3d.com/ Last update: 2018/12/03 16:00 public:read_me:index:57443:start http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/57443/start Seaghan demonstrates the fix for a known problem as well as goes through the various tips and tricks for getting started in Hexagon and basic modeling. He starts with the User Interface and covers the differences in the tools, while all throughout, gives examples of when a particular tool might be used. He covers constraints, and tools that are often overlooked but can speed, not only modeling times, but also accuracy. A self-proclaimed 'keyboard guy,' emphasis is on using keyboard and mouse shortcuts, but demonstrates the multi-option type of menu driven choices that can aid in a more gentle learning curve to modeling. For anyone that has asked the question “there must be a better way to do this,” he demonstrates that there most certainly is, multiple ways to achieve the same result. This tutorial has been created with the same, professional quality of all the rest of Meshology's tutorials that you've come to expect. Just because it's a freebie, doesn’t mean that they've skipped on the features that you've come to depend on or skimped in quality. You'll find this tutorial every bit the quality in the rest of Meshology's tutorials. It's our way of saying 'thank you' for continuing to purchase our products. Presented by Seaghan Hancocks For over 30 years, Seaghan has worked in the Film and Broadcast industry as Line Producer and worked with professional modellers/animators on such shows as Things You Need to Know with James May and Survivorman. He originally got interested in TV when he caught wind of a new series, Babylon 5 that was making the use of a Video Toaster farm which ran on the Amiga 2000 (a Personal Computer!) for rendering all their CG thinking “that looks fun!” and moved from the print/advertising industry. His intent was to get into animation and modelling, but this was not to be… yet. Always and avid “real-world” modeler and nerd to family and friends, and with diminishing, eye-sight decided to learn 3D modeling beginning with Poser back in 2009 because there was no end to increase the size of the model to see the detail, with the intent to publish his own content… Soon! He works with Daz Studio, Poser, zBrush, Hexagon, 3DS Max, Vue and the usual suite of Adobe CC to name some of the more common apps.

Marble at The Ohio State University has been the most exciting and most memorable. His wisdom and profound academic insight showed me what geography as an extraordinarily difficult discipline should be and could be. He is always the person who stands very high and sees very far, exploring the most challenging frontiers of geography relentlessly. As my academic adviser, his unfailing encouragement, guidance, patience and professional courtesy have always been my inspiration to work more creatively and more enthusiastically. He leads us to a high intellectual plateau and offers us the unlimited freedom to face the challenges and to pursue academic excellence. I am always grateful for the paths and opportunities you have pointed out to me. My gratitude also goes to Prof. Edward J. Taaffe, Prof. Morton E. O’Kelly and Prof.

  • Appendix a Basic Mathematics for 3D Computer Graphics
    Appendix A Basic Mathematics for 3D Computer Graphics A.1 Vector Operations (),, A vector v is a represented as v1 v2 v3 , which has a length and direction. The location of a vector is actually undefined. We can consider it is parallel to the line (),, (),, from origin to a 3D point v. If we use two points A1 A2 A3 and B1 B2 B3 to (),, represent a vector AB, then AB = B1 – A1 B2 – A2 B3 – A3 , which is again parallel (),, to the line from origin to B1 – A1 B2 – A2 B3 – A3 . We can consider a vector as a ray from a starting point to an end point. However, the two points really specify a length and a direction. This vector is equivalent to any other vectors with the same length and direction. A.1.1 The Length and Direction The length of v is a scalar value as follows: 2 2 2 v = v1 ++v2 v3 . (EQ 1) 378 Appendix A The direction of the vector, which can be represented with a unit vector with length equal to one, is: ⎛⎞v1 v2 v3 normalize()v = ⎜⎟--------,,-------- -------- . (EQ 2) ⎝⎠v1 v2 v3 That is, when we normalize a vector, we find its corresponding unit vector. If we consider the vector as a point, then the vector direction is from the origin to that point. A.1.2 Addition and Subtraction (),, (),, If we have two points A1 A2 A3 and B1 B2 B3 to represent two vectors A and B, then you can consider they are vectors from the origin to the points.

  • A Proposal of Free Form Modeling System with Force Feed- Back Based on the Strength of Materials
    A Proposal of Free Form Modeling System with Force Feed- back Based on the Strength of Materials Wataru Wakita Shun Ido Ehime University Ehime University Matsuyama, Ehime, Japan Matsuyama, Ehime, Japan [email protected] [email protected] Abstract We propose a free form modeling system based on the strength of materials. This paper describes a system which enables users to realize more intuitive and realistic modeling in attaching various material properties to virtual objects by means of haptic device with force feedback. This system presents different features of materi- als according to the attached material properties to the surfaces of virtual objects and by feeding back reaction force which derives from shape distortion. As a result, in the case that the virtual object is rubber, the system shows soft shape distortion, and in the case that the virtual object is metal, the system shows firm shape distor- tion. We conclude that our system makes free form modeling intuitive and realistic. Keywords virtual brush, haptic device, deformation, free form modeling, surface modeler 1.
