Ive been having some experiments with textures and other things lately, and ive been trying to get a result similar to this. of course I have tried a lot of things and since I am relatively new to this it didnt turn out so well. [LINK] If there would be no easy way around trying to do something like this, from older questions ( How to create clear plastic? (Cycles) [LINK] ) it would be nice to know how to make this one. Nodes are included on this but in the newer versions of Blender, some of the nodes are not available. [LINK]

Cites Sevlac · 2022-10 · Blender Stack Exchange · on “Problem when I export my my character to unity”

I started to learn Blender this week to make a game in Unity. I made this bed that can walk, crouch and jump thanks to this video: [this video] [LINK] But when I export it to Unity I have that: [LINK] I tried to export it in .fbx and in .blend the result is the same. And for both I got those messages in the console: [LINK] Can someone tell me what is wrong and how to fix it please? [LINK]

Cites Vishavjit Buttar · 2024-04 · Blender Stack Exchange · on “How to indivdually animate each ik target”

so I am trying to animate a 4 legged spider and I wanted two of the ik targets (legs) to move 10 frames ahead of the other two. However, every time I select the two ik targets and move the keyframes (I selected all keyframes and moved them 10 frames up), it does it to all ik targets (legs). I was following this video and everything worked fine until 7:03, please let me know what could be causing this error. [this video]
