With tris to quads, you can also open up the little black menu that appears with operators and change both angle limits to 180. That way it'll remove often a bunch more tris that it would otherwise skip.

This is what happens when you don't delete the default cube. It gains sentience and starts telling you what to do.

i love the way you present this - everything is so conversational but not completely dumbed-down either. I'm super-noob, so all this is fascinating to me, so I'm definitely subscribed.

pro tip: you can press (.) dot key to go to selected object in viewport or in outliner. You can press home in shader view to center on your nodes

You are, without a doubt, my favourite source of Blender knowledge

Awesome! Your delivery is hilarious. I laughed and laughed...and learned a bunch. How have I never known that you can have UV slots the same way you have material slots?!?!?

After you said shortcut enough times it starts to sound like "chakra" and so i felt like i was watching a very spiritual video about discovering various blender chakras

So many things here that I needed to know years ago. Thank you. Your Stache character is just the right mix of disturbing and hilarious.

with all respect .. why is everyone down here sharing knowledge only and not addressing the AMAZING PRESENTATION SKILLS AND SENSE OF HUMOUR! Keep going brother

Hi! In regards to moving the 3d cursor. What I usually do is go into edit mode, select one or more verts, edges or faces, and then click shift+s and use cursor to selected. Then the cursor will move to the select vert,edge or face or in the middle of those that you have selected. Much quicker and more precise :)

9:52 You can just press home key on your keyboard to find your node setup and it can be used in any scene in blender

this will amazingly reduce the amount of effort and time I spend working on modeling. between this and part 2 there were quite a few facepalm moments for all the stuff I could have had a much easier time doing. Quick favorites! Ctrl-F,V,E absolutely fantastic! Increase Undo steps! I Love it! Thank you!

If you have median point as transform pivot, you can select the bottom face or vertices of an object for example and setting the cursor to selection will place it perfectly in the midde. Useful if you wanna set the origin quickly and in the right place.

This is how I know KZfaq’s algorithm sucks. I consume a lot of Blender content and yet this is the first time I’ve seen one of your videos. Entertaining AND super helpful! So rare to find both qualities in Blender content!

This video(and probably part 2) is going to hang out in my blender playlist for years, and i guarantee i will be coming back to this a lot.

I truly hope that you are doing theater somewhere! Your onstage presence is Oscar worthy! Not to mention the fabulous tips you have given the world of Blender! “And the winner is…” Thank You!!!

Stache youre a hero. Ive watched hundreds of blender tutorials, none of them come close to your attention to detail, healthy pacing, self awareness, and humor! You are appreciated. Glad I found this. Subscribed.

for finding nodes in the shader editor you can press "A" for selecting all the nodes and if you press '.' key, view will get focused on the node grps similar to the thing in object mode

There is an addon called "extra pie menus" built into blender which I really like, because it has an option to manipulate the origin of objects, and you can toggle which extra menus you want, so if you dont like something you can just turn it off.

Materials Utility is a built in addon that gives you a quick menu to create and apply materials. It is most exellent.

on the shader abyss problem, just press HOME, it works on others menus as well (like the keyframe, home will frame all)

A few more tips to change your life as well, stache: 1- Forward Slash (/): Hide all BUT selected and focus camera on selected. This is a toggle, meaning hit it again to bring everything else back exactly as it was. It's also viewport independent, so you can do this to one viewport without affecting the others. This is incredibly useful when modelling or sculpting with many pieces, but is also useful when tweaking animation in a crowded scene. 2- Numpad Period. Center viewport around object. Try it. Also works in the shader editor, so when you lost your nodes: A then Numpad Period to center the editor around all nodes. 3- Regarding the 3D cursor: Select multiple points then set cursor to selected, and the cursor will go in the center of all selected points. I use this to precisely rig finger bones a lot. In otherwords, loop select that tree and the origin can be centered that easily.

This is the most entertaining little avatar I've ever seen

I love your energy, so fun to watch!

So many things I didn't know. Thanks for this. That first tip blew my mind. I had no idea.

GOD, I HAVE A WIERD FEELING THAT ILL BE BACK HERE IN THIS VIDEO MOAR THAN ONCE A WEEK

the fact that a cube is teaching me makes this video so much better. Thank you, I will never delete a cube ever again.

at 6:20, there is a way faster method to move the 3D cursor exactly where you want: mesh>snap>cursor to selected. so in this tree example, you could tab into edit mode, select that edge loop at the base of the trunk, and then just start typing "cursor to selected" in the context menu until that option comes up. whatever you have selected (faces, edges, vertices), it will automatically go to the exact middle of it.

9:44 you can press Home button or go to View -> Frame All

Love this! Super helpful and charming ❤

great tips/tricks bro, love your videos as well 👍

Great video, thank you for all of these reminders!

okay, shift + g with the combination of ctrl + f, ctrl + e is literally blowing my mind right now. I just tried using it on a new blender project, and already, this is speeding up my workflow like 10x. WHAT. I've been MISSING out

I learned nothing, I couldn't help but constantly focus on your avatar, it's amazing.

A tío to find yourself on the node editor is to simply press A and numpad 0 to snap the view automatically

I was already mindblown with the fact you can zoom in and out. four years since I first stumbled blender and whaaaaat.

shift + s u can do a lot of manipulation with 3d cursor. For example, you can move the 3D cursor to the vertex and move the origin there. p/s sorry for my english

This was awesome. Super helpful, thank you!

Instantly subbed, fantastic video

Hey stache , your videos are a great help because it contains small details that actually matter for small artists and which have hardware the same as you , we have the exact same laptop and it makes me feel confident and easy going . ^⁠_⁠^ keep it up

Great video!! I knew a lot of these but there were still a couple good ones. Keep it up!!

makes me comeback to these videos everytime im stuck but i have a vague idea that you taught me something about something that can make my life easier!!

Wow -- just found your channel. Love the character... love the humor... love the tips. THANKS!! Subscribed!!

you're definitely the best new KZfaqr I've found.

Really enjoyed this video! Well done!

Also ctrl+. To enter and exit edit 3d cursor mode

Really funny! I hope to dive into Blender later this summer. Thanks!

Hooray for The Stache! Much thanks!

dude your videos are super informative but also freakin hilarious! good job! and Thank you!

impeccable humour, outstanding presentation, random praise words from the bottom of my heart and the meaning of them i cant remember but mind-blowing video anyway

I am glad that YT recommended this video to me, I knew many things already, but still learned a few new things!

this has to be the most informative blender vid for avid blender users, had to sub for this hidden gem of a vid

That was awesome! Thank you 😊

I learnt more watching this video than I have trying to look for tips. Thank you!

so many useful tips thanks a lot

Theres so much to blender its insane thank you so much !!!!!!

dude this my first vide ive seen from you! i love this!!!

Bro no homo but I love you right now. I started using blender for the first time last year, I've never read or watched a single tutorial, if I can't figure something out or need to know something specific I'll google it. And I was really proud of how far I've come in this short time. But I swear this video made me realize just how much fucking easier my life could have been... To put it into perspective, I've been doing everything in blender the same way old people drive on the highway, the slowest fucking way possible. I swear I need to write some of this shit down, how the fuck am I supposed to remember all this

My goodness, my dude... Am I glad I subbed! This is some quality content!!

7:26 you can also use “value” node so that you have to change only one thing

HOW DO YOU HAVE SO MUCH INFO I DIDN'T KNOW I MAKE LIVING WITH BLENDER. Genuinely impressive, thank you bud

Randomly stumbled onto this, knew most of the tips but stayed for the personality, good stuff XD.

really helpful !!

loved it

For quickly placing cursor at scene origin, press SHIFT+C, it also frames all objects in the scene, it's a weird hotkey but very useful. Furthermore I'd strongly recommend anyone doing modeling to get the Friendly Pivot addon to make origin point and cursor transform editing actually good in blender.

Blew my mind within the first 3 seconds of the video

You are amazing. I could've watched you for hours, let alone 10 minutes.

What a funny and informative video! Very welcoming to those who are getting into blender :) appreciate the vid man, looking forward to watching more of your videos

Nice video:) I like the character very much! Thanks

A commitment to the character, instant sub!

Super helpful! :D

great tips💯

press Home key in shader editor, if you are lost in the shader editor and cannot find the nodes, it also works in the graph editor to😇

This was so very useful!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you sir

you can hit shift+S and select cusor to world origin and then select an object and then you can add set origin to geometry in you Q to quickly access it. it has saved me so much time.

6:00 Wow! This will definitely improve my workflow.

how have I only now found this video. I love you!

Your avatar is awesome, thank you for that. Thanks for the tips too!

You can set your 3d cursor anywhere by Alt+ right mouse click

you just gaind a new subscriber.

S tier video, great delivery with every joke. keep it up man!

I learned more about blender in the first 15 seconds than I did in the last 3 months... xD

instant sub ty for your service

thank you for this video

Entertaining and very informative, great stuff.

love the videos, keep it up please!

u are a genius!! for the video and the square talking face, just awesome!!

Es uno de los videos más entretenidos que he visto de Blender!!!

I like your video. It's fun .Thanks

More please...I thought I know everything....lol Picked up some good ones. THX🙂

I'm sold on presentation !!! GJ :}

absolutely the craziest vtuber I’ve ever seen

Probably you get tired of hearing this but you should already have a bazillion views. New Subscriber.

oi, a better way to find your nodes is in shader editor press a to select everything and then (comma on the num pad) "," and it will center everything

Hilarious! Great tips and great delivery!!

So I definitely didn't know all of these things and I haven't remembered even half of the things covered after finishing the video, but I did learn something you weren't even showing us specifically. See I've been having this little side project of trying to figure out how to render out a sprite sheet for a game, but specifically in the format where you see all of the poses on the same image rather than rendering each frame and then splicing them together in another program. I also wanted this thing to be capable of editing the mesh from the original model for the purposes of creating multiple armor sets. The method I was going to do was to duplicate the mesh and armature X times before parenting them (so that the pose would be separate) and only the mesh would be link duplicated. Naturally that has a lot of issues like requiring you to know exactly how many frames you have, and just the tedium of replicating every single model and then applying the armature each time. The real solution was to parent the armature to the mesh and make sure all that works, duplicate the whole hierarchy, and then select all of the meshes and Ctrl+L to link the Object Data. It was that easy all along :v Now all that I'd need to do is set it up -and even be extra fancy by having any additional animation sheets I need on separate blender frames so that I can render out several animation sheets by rendering the animation instead of the image.- :P

Your tips and presentation rock, stache. Your channel is a new favorite of mine. A little request...tone down the buzzer. Every time it goes off, I spill my coffee all over myself and forgot what you just taught me. ; )

I paused to go try some of this stuff and discovered something new. I don't know if you've covered it yet, but it's AMAZING. Take two pieces of joined geometry that have intersecting lines but don't share vertices at said intersections. In Edit Mode use Vertex Select, and select the nearest vertex on either intersecting edge. Press the G Key, don't move the mouse, then Left Click. A new vertex will appear at the intersection. Use the auto merge feature in options before hand, or merge by distance afterward.
