But I can ask - can you explain Blender, which I've just started learning...?
I didn't have this question in 3ds Max, I don't know why. I used 3ds Max for another game series, and everything worked fine. But now, in Blender, I have this question: "shade smooth" - as someone suggested on another site (but didn't elaborate), it's basically just a VISUAL effect; the model doesn't actually become smoother.
So, here's my question, or rather, a series of related questions, if you can, please explain!!! -
What is the purpose of "shade smooth"? How do I properly prepare a model for export to a game so that it is smooth and has a good appearance? In 3ds Max, I did two things for the model: "autosmooth 45" (is "shade auto smooth" in Blender the equivalent?) and I used the "edit normals" modifier to bring the normals "to a normal state," so that the polygons, I don't know how to explain it, just made the model look normal and smooth in the game and generally looked good.
