It's been a month since i've tried installing vanilla yosemite installer with various custom kext with zero result. At my last try, i've download the hackintosh-zone distro, with pessimistic frame of mind, i try to run it in my virtualbox and what a surprise, IT WORKS...
Creating Debian Jessie live media using netinstaller iso
Why using netinstall iso?
Well... nothing really special behind my choice of source installation medium, but i already download the net install iso and i really don't want to re-download the base system for my debian jessie system.
What's the requirement for making this minimal live system installation?
a working debian system, in my case a debian lenny system
debootstrap
chroot
mksquashfs
syslinux
genisoimage
an internet connection
Now, here's the step to create debian jessie live media:
1. Mount netinstall iso
root@lennycom:/# mount -o loop <YOUR-ISO-LOCATION> <YOUR-MOUNT-LOCATION>
in my case, my iso is at /media/Data1/debian-8.4.0-amd64-netinst.iso and my mount location is at /media/unt, so the command is:
root@lennycom:/# mount -o loop /media/Data1/debian-8.4.0-amd64-netinst.iso /media/unt
root@lennycom:/# mkdir /media/Data2/livemedia-try1
root@lennycom:/# cd /media/Data2/livemedia-try1
root@lennycom:/media/Data2/livemedia-try1# mkdir liveImage
root@lennycom:/media/Data2/livemedia-try1# mkdir liveImage/live
Exploding Teapot Tutorial
Exploding
things are some of the most common effect in many movies and tv. In
this tutorial we'll learn how to create a basic explosion effect
using blender 3D. This tutorial is using version 2.75a of Blender 3D.
Step
0: Preparation
Because
the teapot object is part of extra object add-on for blender, we have
to make sure that the extra object add-on is enabled. To enable the
extra objects add-on, first click File tab and select User
preferences. Select/click the Add-ons tab if not selected
yet. On Catagories subsection click Add Mesh to filter
the add-ons. Click the Extra Objects checkbox.
Modeling a barbell equipment in Blender 3D
Step 0: Preparation
In this step we do a little research for dimensions and standards for the model to make the model look proportional. Several dimension standards that we’ll use were:
- Barbell bar length
- Barbell bar diameter
- Barbell disk diameter and thickness
Barbell bar length standard was 1.2 meter to 2.2 meter. For this tutorial we will use 2.2 meter for the barbell bar length. Barbell bar diameter is between 25-51mm, for this tutorial we’ll use 50mm as the diameter of the bar. Next we’ll write down some standards for the barbell disk. Common diameter for 15Kg of barbell disk is roughly 360mm or 36cm, thickness is roughly 3cm and bore hole diameter is roughly 5cm.
After we get the reference dimension for our model, now we open blender and start modeling, but before we start modeling, we should set our scene to the proper unit. Because the dimension we gather were in metric system, we should adjust our blender scene into metric system. Click the scene panel in blender panels, then under Units subsection click the metric button to make our scene into a metric system.
Render testing a hair from swam3d in blender
After unsucessful attempt to create my own hair model last week, this week i decided to try free hair model that i found online. Daz and/or Poser characters had many users, and many of those users have been contributing back to daz and poser communities by giving 3d models for free. For this experiment, i choose 'Renella Hair' from swam3d.com. For those who want to download the files, you can get it at swam3d.com.
Experimenting with blender hair
After i was able to import and play with my genesis character from daz3d in blender, the next thing i want to try is to give it a hair. I know that there's a bunch of daz 3d hair for genesis out there that i can use for my character, but i want to try creating my own hair using blender system. For the past two weeks i've been trying to create a simple hair for my genesis character and so far the results were not good.
