Blender subdivision surface, mirror modifier issues












0















I am new to Blender and I'm currently trying to model Goku from DragonBall GT. I started from a Cube and i modified it to a simple humanoid model using a mirror modifier. After I applied the mirror modifier on the object i tried to subdivide the surface of the mesh. The results where decent except the fact that in some areas mostly in the middle of the character things are messed up.



See Figure 1 below, shows an example of the issue mentioned above.

  • First enable merge and clipping in the mirror modifier, you may need to move the central vertices a little so the mirrored verts align at the centre. You also need to remove the internal faces that you have down the centre of your model.

It looks there are some faces inside your mesh, where he is supposed to be mirrored. Remove them, you shouldn't have faces inside such mesh.



Then, a few things:
Don't apply your modifiers unless you need to. Modifiers are made to be non-destructive editable, removable. If you apply your modifiers, you lose all that, losing flexibility, performances, ...



In your mirror modifier, you might want do enable Merge and Clipping. Merge will allow the modifier to merge overlapping vertices into one while clipping will "block" your vertices from going through the mirroring plane.
Then, you might need to adjust your mesh. The mirror modifier uses the object's origin to determine where he works. If your mesh isn't correctly positioned from your object origin, you will need to adjust it.



About the black faces, it's because their normals are inverted. Simply select them in edit mode and press CtrlN to recalculate the normals. You might need to invert the result (via the invert checkbox in the left bar or in the F6 menu).

Can a sorcerer learn a 5th-level spell early by creating spell slots using the Font of Magic feature?

Image
28 6 $begingroup$ Per the Font of Magic feature, sorcerer can use Flexible Casting to create 5th-level spell slots at level 7, even though they are not typically available until level 9. You can transform unexpended sorcery points into one spell slot as a bonus action on your turn. The Creating Spell Slots table shows the cost of creating a spell slot of [5th level is 7] If such a sorcerer levels up while still having this 5th-level spell slot, can they choose a 5th-level spell as the spell they gain upon levelling up? The Spellcasting feature states: Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the sorcerer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the sorcerer spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Does disintegrating a polymorphed enemy still kill it after the 2018 errata?

Image
up vote 13 down vote favorite 1 After the 2018 errata, the disintegrate spell description now reads: A creature targeted by this spell must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 10d6 + 40 force damage. The target is disintegrated if this damage leaves it with 0 hit points. If you were to polymorph an enemy into a rat and then disintegrate it, would the enemy be disintegrated or would it just return to its original form? I know that for Druids, it’s not an instant kill anymore, but is this the case for polymorph as well? dnd-5e spells polymorph errata share | improve this question edited 18 hours ago

A Topological Invariant for $pi_3(U(n))$

Image
3 3 $begingroup$ Recently, I saw a construction of topological invariant for $pi_3(U(n))$ with $ngeq 2$ : $$ N=frac{1}{24pi^2}int_{S^3} d^3x epsilon^{ijk} Tr[(U^{-1}partial_{x_i}U)(U^{-1}partial_{x_j}U)(U^{-1}partial_{x_k}U)] , $$ where $Uin U(n)$ depends on $boldsymbol{x}=(x_1,x_2,x_3)in S^3$ , $epsilon^{ijk}$ is the Levi-Civita symbol, $i,j,k=1,2,3$ , and the duplicated indexes are summed over. It is claimed that $N$ is an integer, but why? Update 02/02/2019 I think I got an argument for $n=2$ . In this case, $U=e^{i varphi} q$ with $qin SU(2)$ . Due to the trace and the Levi-Civita symbol in $N$ , $varphi$ does not contribute to $N$ . As $Tr[q^{dagger}partial_i q]=0$ and $(q^{dagger}partial_i q)^{dagger}=-q^{dagger}partial_i q$ , $q^{dagger}partial_i q$ in geneeral has the form $q^{dagger}partia
