Hey everybody, it’s UnderMyCap, and welcome back to another video! Today, I’m taking on a challenge where I’m going to try to build a hangout room in under 30 minutes. Now, Iām not great at building, but I realized the other day that I teach people how to build, so maybe I should really learn to build. Letās open up my timer right now. Weāre going to start the timer in 3, 2, 1… and we are starting! So, weāve got 30 minutes on the clock; we better start building. I think the best thing to do right now is to figure out what weāre going to do with the walls. Iām going to delete the walls because Iām not going to use the default walls. Let’s go to the palette, click on Cube Simple, and head over to our tools tab. Iām going to turn on the grid just to make sure that the cube will snap; I talk about that in my create video. So, letās go to snapping and start building the walls, I guess. Iāll put a wall right here, and for some reason, I have this glitch on my maker pen. I have no clue why it keeps doing this, but now I have to extend it like this. Itās such a weird glitch; I have no idea. Okay, awesome! Letās just go all the way out and scale it all the way up to the roof. Iām just using the roof as a little template for nowāthatās good enough. We donāt really care about the outside; we honestly do not care about the outside right now. We might want to make it like a glass wall or add some windows, so Iām going to scale this back down to maybe a good height. That looks pretty nice; I think it’s a good height for a starting window. Now, this is the fun part: putting in the glass. Sometimes, glass just doesnāt want to work, and you know what? Thatās fine. Under time constraints, I actually donāt know how long Iāve got left for glass. I canāt afford to talk; letās just put the glass down. Iām going to switch to my POV for this part; weāre going to scale this and nicely extend it all the way to the end over here. This looks kind of ugly, but thatās okay. I just realized this isnāt aligned with the end, so we will have to make sure that we line that up later. Perfect! Letās scale this all the way up to this wall over here. Okay, so weāve got a nice little window that lets us see the environment. Now, letās clone that. We have this nice little wall section, and weāre going to clone it to the other side of the room. Letās grab the little blue indicator that allows us to clone everything across, snap that to the floorāclose enough! Now, weāre going to clone that again, but this time we’re going to clone it to the middle and use the rotate tool to rotate it 90 degrees. You can actually rotate stuff by 90 degrees by simply clicking on those colors. Weāre just going to quickly move this across over here, then weāll move this across as well. I donāt have a lot of time! Iām going to clone that again and drag it down here. If you look around, we have a really nice indoor space now, but we need to add some furniture. I think we might need to add the environment first because I feel like we need something to look around at. To create the environment, we can use tubing to make some really nice shapes, and then just clone them constantly. Iām going to open up the menu so you can see what Iām doing. Weāll go to the create palette, get out of this section, go to shapes all the way down to tubes, head back to tools, and turn off uniform shapes because we want nice, random tubes. Weāre also going to turn off snapping; again, we want random tubes. Letās set the tube radius to a little thicker, 0.8 should be perfect; we’ll set the facets to 10 and turn smoothed tubes on. Now, if we start making random shapes like this, we can create some really nice terrain. I think thatās good enough. Letās simply color this. We’ll use āTerraverāāthatās a fancy name. Weāll apply carpet, which is quite nice to simulate grass. Letās recolor this and see what it looks like. That looks pretty decent, I reckon. Letās scale it up a little bit and add a different variationāso weāll just create a slightly lighter tube over hereānot too random or sharp, and I reckon thatāll do for now. We can now go into the clone tool and start cloning a bunch of these shapes. Amazing! Then we can combine these shapes to create nice terrain. Let me open up the maker pen again. Oh, I forgot; we have to edit back into this. Letās try to make some nice grassy terrain. That looks really nice! Now, letās give it a little rotation to make it look a bit more randomāperfect! Weāve got a random terrain-looking thing now. Iām just going to copy and paste this a bunch of times. This adds a nice terrain effect. When we scale it up, it creates a really nice grass effect. Now weāre going to move this to the center of the room and scale it up. Look how amazing that is! However, we will run into a problem when we merge this with the floor, but for now, people donāt see outside, so they donāt need to know about this. We can just clone it a couple of times. When I say a couple, I mean we really need to clone it quite a bit. It does look very fake; weāre under time constraints, so that’s completely understandable. Now, it looks shocking! Oh my gosh, it actually looks shocking! Is there a way we can fix this? Hang on… uh-oh, this is not good. We need to move this down; itās too high up, and this one is also too high. I think if we move these all down, that should be fine. It doesnāt look the best, but you know what? For 30 minutes, it’s going to be good. Oh, wait, did I delete the windows? I think I deleted the windows! Okay, well thatās fine. Weāll put the windows back. That looks okay for now; actually, not too good. What weāre going to do to get rid of the gap or void underneath us is make a little ocean. We can create this as a little island. Letās go back to the menu, go to grid, and get this up on snapping. Set this to a really thin cube. If we do that, we should be able to scale it like nuts. Look at thatāthatās a thick box! Oh hang on, you know what? Honestly, this looks okay; it kind of looks like we’re on an island with water. Iām happy with that; I’m really happy. Oh God, Iām not happy with that, though! Letās move that down. I might as well check the time… 15 minutes left! Weāve got 15 minutes; okay, thatās okay! Weāve got the outdoor area, the glass… sort of; we have the glass. We’ll move this all the way over here. It doesnāt want to cooperate with me. Come on! I donāt think itās going to snap; thatās okay. We’ll just have to deal with that for now. If thatās the only issue we have with the room, thatās completely fine. We also donāt have a roof, which is a little concerning. Everything’s off-centered, but that is okay for now; no oneās really going to notice that. Letās do the floor quickly. Iām going to lay down a really basic floor; weāll just put a square down like thisāperfect! Weāve got the roof; the roof has lighting in it, which is really useful. What Iām going to do is keep the roof but put a little box on it. Iām just going to clone that onto the roof, and that actually looks quite nice! Weāll color the roof a nice painted wall. No, that looks really nice, actually! Okay, letās just go with walls since we donāt have a lot of time leftālike this. Perfect! Now we need to add some furniture. How much time do we have? I think we have 11-12 minutes left. Okay, 12 minutes to add some furniture! Now that weāve got this sorted, itās time to build some furniture for the room. Weāre going to need a table, of course. Letās use the tube; thatās going to be easier for this situation, I reckon. Weāll go to uniform shapes, change the tube facets to four, turn smooth tubes off, and confirm uniform is set. Letās draw a nice little rectangle like this. Oh wait, I did it wrong; it should be 0.1. That’s fine! Let’s rotate itājust making sure you can see what Iām doing. Come on, let me rotate you! We donāt have a lot of time! Come on, just work with me. Perfect! Letās scale this up. Weāve got a nice little bench top, I guess. What we can do is make it a fancy bench top. If we edit this tube, we can insert a point between these two points on the bench. Letās do another point as well between these two blue points. I hope you can see the points Iām insertingāthere’s one here and another nice point right here. Now, this is the cool part! We
