I came up with something that I thought was half decent and I would be remiss if I did not share it with fellow fans in case at least one person might want to use it. Just like the Collapse template, I’ve made it so that you can upload any image that you want and it will automatically adhere to the 3d cube (just make sure the image is a square, otherwise it will be stretched). This template unfortunately uses the more resource-intensive rendering engine in order to mimic the lighting and shadows more closely, so your computer will chug along a bit as it renders. It shouldn’t take any more than a few minutes unless you have a really old computer. If you have a laptop, the fans will most likely kick on quite loudly. The file is in the .zip attached and you can download Blender for free to use it. I’ve included a screenshot with instructions in the file. It’s not completely foolproof for people who have never used Blender for modeling and rendering, but I’ve tried my best to make it as easy as possible for anyone to try it out. If you want to live preview the image before rendering, hold the Z button and slide up to Rendered in the viewport section with the cube in it. To switch back, hold the Z button and slide to the right to Solid. If you keep it on the Rendered screen for too long it will eat up resources, so I would do that only to see briefly what it looks like and then switch back to the Solid view. I’ve attached some test renders, one with a similar texture to the album art as well as others with different tones and colors just to see how they would look: aphex_blackbox_template.zip 16 replies Picked By Joyrex , June 28, 2023 Aphex Twin - Blackbox Life Recorder 21f / in a room7 F760 [WAP480C] (July 28, 2023) Rubin Farr posted a topic in New & Upcoming Releases , June 21, 2023 Blackbox Life Recorder 21f / in a room7 F760 by Aphex Twin 95 replies Picked By Joyrex , June 21, 2023 What TV series are you watching at moment?
