If you're importing a remeshed sculpt to Blender, use the Multires modifier's Rebuild Subdivisions. Instead of saving every vertex it then saves the lowest resolution with the instruction to subdivide. I just used this to reduce a Retopoflow user's file size by about 1.5 GB.

The Extra Mesh and Curve Objects UIs were bugging me, so I went through and modernized them both. Give classic add-ons some love too! Update now on the Blender Extensions platform.

The next version of Render Raw will have a layer system, the ability to use as many correction nodes as you want, and a fully customizable clipping preview! blendermarket.com/products/ren...

The Blender modeling tip of the day is that you can preserve curvature in loop cuts by using the Smoothness property. You can also set this by Alt Scrolling before confirming the cut, but there's no visual feedback so it's not super intuitive that way.

I commented on a post on Right Click Select, enthusiastically agreeing with the author and also suggesting an improvement... only to notice after linking it to someone else that the author was me 5 years ago. Bet that looked totally sane 😂 🤦

What Blender add-on is the best at straightening UVs? Are there any cases where it fails or needs improvement?

I've updated my theme, Minimal Dark, for Blender 4.3. It has a lot of downloads but not many reviews, so consider leaving a rating if you like it. Thanks! extensions.blender.org/themes/theme...

You can get the colors you want right in Blender, without opening Photoshop, Resolve, or Affinity! It's kind of a PITA to set up manually, but Render Raw does it in one click and makes color correction actually fun. It's 30% off right now: blendermarket.com/products/ren...
The default Blender view transforms Standard, Filmic, and AgX compared with Render Raw edits on top of AgX.

Anyone here use Blender on a newer MacBook Pro? I'm considering switching for the battery life, but I've only ever used Windows for 3D. Are there any apps that you miss?
