Blender Expert Needed!

I'm pulling my hair out!

from WinCustomize Forums

Ok...basically, I've spent an hour digging around Blender Artist Forums and can't figure out how to make a new post there.  Either I'm blocked or blind, but nonetheless, I've given up and I'm asking you guys.

I'm trying to put together a few pieces of a train together so they can move correctly in the animation.  I'm using Blender 2.6.

If there's an expert on Blender...please...for the love of God...send me a lifeline.  I'm pulling my hair out.

To be specific--I'm trying to put together the train's mechanical stuff together; the piston to the arms to the wheels sorta thing.

I feel for ya, Blender is a difficult app to learn. I stuck with C4d

I would kill for Autodest Inventor...I love that program...

I could do things in Inventor that would make wicked cursors and in half the time.

Good one Ed ;P

 

Hey OP,  have you tried rooting out some of the tutorials probably available online, on youtube etc? Its a big net, I don't think there are many, if any Blender experts on WC I'm afraid to say.

Well...I think I did a good job in digging around for a tutorial.   I might be wrong, so I've set aside that piece of my cursor project and moved on to the other stuff.  Once I have to return to that part, I'll look again.

Worst-case scenario:  I'll drop by my old high school and bust this train out on Inventor there.

I will have my train running! XO

Stupid Blender Program...  Maybe it'll go well with that pink smoothie/shake angus has...o_O

I was able to post on a Blender forum, finally.  Now the waiting game...:rolleyes:

following a couple of video tutorials is the best way to learn new apps ....

i guess, they have added a couple of tutz on their site ....

Alas...No tutorial.

But by GOD, I've done it!  My train works!  I may soon be a blender master at this rate... :cylon:

No one helped me on Blender Artist Forums either!  I will contain my harsh words against them as this is a censored site...<_<

#:(  ...

Anyway...my cursor set will be done soon! XD
