Designed a LEGO front bezel with mecabricks.com for the NFC S4T. It fits with friction. The techniques used aren't as stable as I wish they were, so I have to redo the base. But that's not really an issue. Parts have been acquired via bricklink.com. The rock/tunnel/train build is just a render, but will be brought to live once the base is solid. Source: 10 months ago
Some of the builds are published on mecabricks.com, and they're all free to use if you'd like to make cartoons of your own. I'll be uploading the cast of characters there, to the extent I've finished them, later this week. I figured I'd try to get you guys to weigh in on them first. Source: 12 months ago
Yes, I did it with Blender. The models are from https://mecabricks.com/. Source: about 1 year ago
The car model comes from Traffiq, the trees and plants come from Botaniq, the textures come from AmbientCG, HDRI from Poly Haven and the LEGO man from Mecabricks, which was then animated with EpicFigRig and MecaFace. Sound effects fromZapSplat and Freesound. Post-processing done in DaVinci Resolve. Source: over 1 year ago
So I make lego animations with blender, using mecabricks.com to get models. I imported a model into blender where there was a glass piece, and when I had the camera and lighting set up I tweaked the settings so it would render quicker, but now the glass is not see through and is completely white. Ive tried raising the transeparecy but that didnt work. Anyone know how I can render see through glass while still... Source: over 1 year ago
And https://codecombat.com, which has been around for a while now. I think this paradigm (navigating a character using "move" function invocations) is good but kind of exhausts its usefulness after a while. I question whether my daughter learns coding this way or just is playing a turn based top down platformer. The most code like thing is when you use 'loops' to have characters repeat sequences of moves. I... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago
+1 Scratch! My son started with it, then expanded into Roblox/Lua. Children can download other people's games and experiment there. Scratch also has pre-made art, sounds, music. https://scratch.mit.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
I am also going to highly recommend Scratch[1]. That is what got me into a programming around that age. You can even help him make a website to host his games on. [1]: https://scratch.mit.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
This ! Learning to code will come after, spending time with your son writing down ideas might be more fun at first and it's a good time to teach him that games are thoughts first and then coded after. I would have recommended Scratch [1] for a first introduction instead of hoping into code right away, but since he is 9yo he will most likely want to hop on big game engine like he sees his favorite youtubers doing.... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
