Hi, I am a Blender user for more than 3 years and I like it. However, I really don’t understand why people behave like 2.8 is the ultimate super software like it has no problems. Am I the only one having awful performance in Blender 2.8(especially in edit mode)? It is much worse than 2.79. Even 3ds Max has 3 times better performance then Blender 2.8.
Also this new sculpt viewport… I don’t know who did it but it is dumbest thing I have ever seen in my life. You even cannot add any custom brush to the viewport. Also you have to realize these sculpt tools by looking at their symbols, there is no text on them. Just go and check how Zbrush brush selection. It is really good and easy. You just press b and then for example s for smoot brush. Thats all. I don’t know if they have any plan to change/fix these things. If you know anything, please let me know.
Welcome to BA. No you are not alone with these problems. If you look around on the forums viewport performance is one of the biggest issues right now.
The UI changes you mentioned are not to everyone’s taste either.
Have a look at this thread to see where sculpt mode is heading.
I’m not an expert in modeling… I’ve been working at learning Blender and was slowly figuring things out and how to do things… The 2.8 is very confusing and finding lot of it difficult to figure out… and Now, I am trying to merge two verts and ALT M is not working… can’t merge them and I tried to take the two verts and just create do F between them… that didn’t work either…
So now am trying to learn things all over again … The Smooth tool in Blender 2.79B was good… in this one, Smoothing Verts not always working… I have a fender on a car I’m attempting to make, I can’t smooth out …
at the moment, I like 2.79B better … Much easier to work with…
The only way I can imagine this happening is if you are editing more than one object at the same time and you are trying to merge a vertex from one object with a vertex from another.
