This course seems to be too hard for me. I can’t seem to control my objects in order to manipulate them correctly. It feels like I’m uncoordinated when it comes to Blender.
It’s counter intuitive/culture in the way it works in places. I’m still having a rough time thinking in units, +/- units, LMB select/deselect in menus but RMB to do that in the 3D window, which window or menu to be in to affect what I want…
It takes a fair amount of time to get used to it…then you start doing it in other programs which amps the frustration. Anything outside of the above you’re having issue with?
I’m working on other courses too so I don’t get a chance to just focus on this course. I end up forgetting what I learned and then I’m trying to create objects and not be able to rotate the shapes properly.
That will happen. I swotch between Blender, Tinkercad, 3D Maker, Mesh Maker, Photoshop, Cura, and poke at Fusion 360. I try to hit the class for a couple of episodes a week and I’m just starting to remember how to get around in it consistently in Section 5, Lecture 85. It takes quite awhile to get used to.
Yeah, that’s about what I am doing. I’ve only completed 4% of the course so far.
If it seems like you are having a hard time I would suggest focusing on one course and going all in on that one!
Yeah, you’re probably right. I should do that but. . . sometimes I get too anxious to dive into something new. Lol
I’m here for you! Pick one and let’s get it started! I’ll help you out!
Hi Penny, it is a difficult stuff, but I am sure you can fix your problems. It is a learnig process, Make notes, even in the course videos. There is the helpful bookmark function. And repeat watching the videos. I am watching the same videos 3- 4. At first glance I make me familiar with the new stuff, then I watch again and make notes, then I watch and try to model, after a few weeks I watch the video again, and after a few months sometimes also again.
Probably the one I need to focus on would be “C# Unity Developer 2D: Learn to Code Making Games” since it says I’m 65% through this course. I was doing that until I got stuck on Glitch Gardens. I’m a little less than halfway through Glitch Gardens but I think I need to just start over on that one. I’ve messed up my cactus somehow. At one point, I somehow deleted it from the package in Unity and had to find it again and put it back in and now I just keeping errors. I was doing so good on that game too until I got to the animations.
I just shared a bunch of screens about it under that part of the course on here.
