Collab 2020: Modeling Heavy Equipment (Backhoe)

No way! How many files did you have to open till you found the poor pup?

Honestly I’m impressed you found it. I’d already given up for the day 😅

[Adrian Bellworthy]

I found it straight away.

I added a cube, so I could select a material and using text search for ‘Steel_bolts’ it lists the linked files using that material and it had the chassis and the swing frame listed.

So then went to the swing frame and removed the material.

Must of become a stray when I moved the collection to the swing frame from the chassis.

Up here for dancing…..

Down here for dancing, Up here for thinking.

Hey Guys, I won’t make it to live stream. My mother had a stroke and is in the hospital. I will be with her as much as the hospital will allow. They aren’t letting me see her until tomorrow. Prayers appreciated 

[Shawn Blanch]

That’s terrible news @ketre. Prayers coming your way for sure!

I don’t think the live stream is until Oct 20th so you may still be able to make it.

[Ingmar Franz]

@ketre All the best wishes and prayers for your mother! I hope to see you here again soon with good news.

[spikeyxxx]

Sorry to hear that @ketre . Best wishes from me as well. I’ll also be praying for your mother to get well.

[Kent Trammell]

@ketre I’m so sorry to hear the news about your mother. Absolutely sending prayers your way!

@ketre  Sad news about your mum. Will be praying for you all.

[Kent Trammell]

I found it straight away.

😳 …. 😅 I knew I picked the right MOLE for the job! One thing I did notice is that the assembly file was saved with 2.9. Shoudln’t be a big deal, just something I’ll make sure to mention in the next livestream. Either way, 2.83 or 2.9, it’s probably best if we all use the same version on this project (which is 2.9 now)

[Adrian Bellworthy]

ooops!!! Wasn’t thinking. Can you open in 2.83 then resave it??

[Adrian Bellworthy]

@ketre Sorry to hear the news about your mom, more prayers coming your way.

[Adrian Bellworthy]

Haven’t worked on the BIG DOG for a while, thought I would do a bit today.

Done the hand rails and mirrors, and started the interior.

@blanchsb you have set the standard for chairs, there is two in this dog. Not sure they will be as good as yours.

[Kent Trammell]

The warning makes me think it’s better not to. It would probably be fine but it’s surely not a good practice. Given the complexity I don’t want to risk a weird bug or hiccup in the scene/linking/data going back and forth.

Don’t worry though! Our DOG is officially a 2.9 project 👌👍

[Jake Korosi]

Thinking about you and your mom, @ketre, hang in there.
