A precise and easy-to-follow explanation. Can't wait to watch the other videos in the series. Vielen Dank!
Really good explanation ! Recently, I have read like 5 hours about topology on the web. I could not understand at first what was in this video (to much new term for me), but now that I read a lot and made a few model, I think this is one of the best explanation I found about topology :-) Glad to be part of Blender Cloud !
Both links point towards temp.org :)
This is the best explanation of poles and direction flow I've found so far - thank you!
Links are Broken
@Davide Prati Thanks for letting me know. I'm restoring the descriptions & links now :)
Having an issue with some of these videos, as in they are playing for a while then jumping to the end after around 5 minutes in this one. Not sure what's going on.
*edit - seems if you refresh the page it plays through properly.
Hi, thanks for great tutorial! I've got a question: When you 'slide an edge loop into another' at ~1:00, what tool are you using? Edge slide? If so, how is it that the two overlapping edge loops merge?
@Ethan Mark Sather At the top right of the header there is a button called "Auto Merge Vertices". With this enabled any verts on the same location will be merged. This saves a lot of time but don't forget to turn it off, since it can accidentally lead to merged verts when you didn't intend for it.
