The latest release of Blender is a very impressive and powerful 3D app.

As I learn how to modify 3D models for use in Element 3D, I have reentered the world of 3D apps. I dabbled about 15 years ago with Lighwave which had a lot to offer and gave me a reference point for Blender.
But I was not prepared for how blown away I am by Blender. Its a rare honor to use software that is a very powerful labor of love. The newest incarnation looks like a CS6 app and has the versatility as well.
Its a shame I just need it as a utility to convert files for Element.But I prefer my 3D text and models to be "live" in AE.
But for those folks needing software that can rival C4D (just look at the work thats been done with it) it seems a great option to explore.

As with any software I learn, tutorials are key in understanding and getting comfortable with them. Even after only 3 days I see that it has lots to offer and a very flexible GUI.

  • Hi, I've just downloaded the latest release 10.1.1 and now I do not see any more correctly my clips either in the canvas and in the timeline. Playing clips, they now appears with garbled images, completely unstables: I can not editing in these conditions!

    Anyone can help me?
    Thank you, Claudio

    Hi Russ, Thank you for your reply!
    System Spec:
    2x2.26 Ghz QUAD-CORE
    12 GB RAM 1066 MHz DDR3
    I've stored the library in HARD DISK which is installed inside my computer (1 TB capacity) and different from my hard disk in which I've installed all my applications (600 GB capacity).
    I've installed FCP since 2001, bought FCP X in 2012: never had a problem. Yesterday I was editing my video of my last vacations (in California!) and I have updated FCP X, downloading FCP X 10.1.1: then the problem!
    Strange is the fact that I've just tried to export a short project, I can see the final product quite well.
    What is impossible is playing the clips within Final Cut: they are jumpimg, moving, presenting some frame in green or red ...
    Everything all right in iMovie.
    I've just checked the RAM: 9GB out of 12 GB is busy, could this be the problem?
    Motion is very slow: for 20 sec of project, it takes minutes to play. And once again, if you finalize the projet and export it in Quicktime, you can see it correctly.
    I do hope you may suggest something, I'm getting crazy!
    Thank you in adavance

  • What is the latest release number for OS X on a MacBook Air?

    I have just purchased a new MacBook Air.
    I am having difficulties with the software update function. I made a software update request and had 7 items to install. When I tried to install them I got an "an expected error" (see previous question in this community from myself). I then tried installing the items one bz one and all was well, except for the fact that the OSX upgrade to 10.8.2 had no effect and left my MacBook at 10.7.5.
    Does any one know what is the latest release number and how to upgrade to 10.8.2?
    Thanks,
    Kim Johnson

    Hi
    You should be running on Mountain Lion  OSX 10.8.2.  I applied for and received a free upgrade for Mountain Lion as my MBA was a mid 2012 model.  There was a form on Apple site to fill out and the instructions were pretty straight forward.
    At that time there was a bout a 1 week delay due to the rush to upgrade to Mountain Lion.
    Hope this helps

    Hello,
    There are no files like that in that folder (com.apple.safari).  They all have long numbers with .jpeg or .png at the end.  That's what I meant by I cannot find any files like those mentioned in all the helps I read today.  BTW-it's still crashing - no particular pattern to it at all.
    The only two things I have downloaded recently is a new version of Flash and a Mac-driven update to Office.
    Thank you very much for your attempt to help us.

  • Since I updated my 4S iphone to the latest iOS7 version, I can no longer close any of my apps.  As a result, all my apps remain open on my phone.  Even powering down and restarting does not solve the problem.  Specifically, the icons don't wiggle anymore.

    Since I updated my 4S iphone to the latest iOS7 version, I can no longer close any of my apps.  As a result, all my apps remain open on my phone.  Even powering down and restarting does not solve the problem.  Specifically, when I double-click the start button, my open app icons display.  But when I hold my finger on an icon, the apps do not wiggle and display an "x" to close.  Any advice... thanks?!

    Double tap the Home button, then swop upwards on the App Preview (not the App Icon). Tap the Home button again when done to return to normal screen.

  • I am running OSX 10.6.8 and when I try to install the latest security update there is an unknown error and the update cannot be implemented. I still have to restart my computer each time I try. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

    I am running OSX 10.6.8 and when I try to install the latest security update there is an unknown error and the update cannot be implemented. I still have to restart my computer each time I try. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?     
    I tried using the downloaded update. It still didn't work but at least I did not have to restart my computer. The message was a little different too: "The installation failed. The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."

    Run through this list of fixes, either something is corrupted or you have malware that's blocking the update.
    ..Step by Step to fix your Mac
    Make sure to backup your users files to a external storage drive first (not only TimeMachine as it may fail to restore) and disconnect, because if' it's a drive corruption/failing then the entire thing will either have to be replaced or a wipe and install done.

  • I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader (11.0.07) and installed it. Message said install successful. But APEX learning software does a check to see if my system has Adobe Reader and it says I still need to install it. What's up? This has happened

    I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader (11.0.07) and installed it. Message said install successful. But APEX learning software does a check to see if my system has Adobe Reader and it says I still need to install it. What's up? This has happened to me numerous times throughout the years. I need to get to the bottom of this problem. Thanks for your help.

    You still don't give us the message you are receiving.  My guess: you are trying to open a PDF in a browser that uses its own PDF viewer, not the Adobe Reader plugin: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html
