> I wonder when 3d Modeling will be primarily done with a headset. Like, would it be useful to do the initial modelling in Maya itself? I think the desired goal would help dictate if you use VR. For example, for the Lion King remake the world was entirely cg. To do the rough and final layouts of the environment multiple people (director/art director/modelers/set dressers/dp) all went into vr (sometimes together) and used tools in UE to place/scale/rotate objects. This made a lot of sense b/c they could more accurately place and model the environment within it. It could be quite useful when modeling but I wonder at what point make sense. I've done a fair bit of modeling which involves a lot of manipulation of points and faces and also involves lots of object tumbling, which might prove tiring in vr. But I think it ultimately makes sense b/c it allows for a 3dimensional view of what you're doing. |

I didn't know about that. This is amazing.

I've done some hobbist-level CAD. Very often I had to turn the object slightly in a couple of directions to get a better sense of perspective. That comes for 'free' with VR, and you can also move your head, or yourself, without turning.
Mind you, I'm picturing working while sitting down so as not to be too tiring. Fine vertex manipulation may still be tiring, but I'm thinking organic modelling would benefit. Also specially for CAD, when you want to visualize and "explode" your model. Normally it involves lots of camera moving around.
