Hello to everyone
Hey all. Just looking to get into using Python to interface with Blender in a number of ways to display math but also would like to use it as bridge as well for a number of other applications like Plasticity and FreeCAD. I've used the internal scripting tab for some extremely basic stuff but I love using PyCharm for a lot of other projects so I'm pretty comfortable in that UI. One project I've been thinking of doing for a while but luckily didn't get all that far into was I wanted to update the type stub library for the Blender API (now in 5.1) for VS Code and PyCharm. But that will take a while and I have some shorter projects to finish out first.
I used ChatGpt for this. You tell the IA what the script should do and you get it. Analyze it, break it down to components, ask for a OOC architecture. Very manageable and I have to say I HATED Python. Now, it's better.

Hello everyone, I am a 71 years old mix between a photographer and mathematician. Tired of doing things that I did before I decided to go 3D to produce 100% realistic photos of things that don't exist. My aim is low: I want only still images. I am now in the process of building a procedural muscle generator with geometry nodes in blender. I am almost done but to be 100% realistic I need to add some noise around the muscle with a bump map. In order to do this I need to embed script into the GNs. I can give you thousands of textures, including skin textures derived from real photos that gives us a real skin. Also I have 2 body hair generators (one for the outline and one for the "field of the skin) that are to be use as a top layer in Photoshop. I'll be happy to share.

@Victor Stepanov Yesterday, I was a bit tired so my answer wasn’t that helpful. Here is a more accurate one. I describe the problem to ChatGPT to give the AI a global view of the architecture. I listen to the remarks. Discarded some, took some in. Since Java is the language I like most, I ask the AI to build me a java application that will do it but here you mist go step by step. In my case the first step was to build a bridge between Java and Blender. Then to have the bridge do what is needed in Java. Then I build a GN that reproduce the first parts of the scripts, the parts I already did with GN. Then I asked it to build java classes that do what I couldn’t do in GN. In my case I got 3 Java classes. I analysed them, tweaked them and got it perfect. Then I asked the AI to give me the schematics to building a GN that would do the same. Since it’s pure maths the transcription isn’t that difficult. And there you are, you have a GN that behave exactly like it should.
@Zbyszek Pietras How good at Blender are you? Do you know how to have instances on point aligned perfectly? At the moment they turn around like horses in a carrousel .

70 years old photographer. Tired of shooting things I have done before I moved to 3D to produce 100% realistic images that aren't possible to make 2D.
