Python Crash Course for Blender!

Due to an annoying change in the way the search function works in Blender post-2.9, all operators now need to be attached to a menu somewhere in the interface to be visible in the search bar.
You can change this however, if you go into Edit - Preferences, then in the Interface section tick 'Developer Extras'. The operator should be discoverable in the search function again.

I can't even setup the window or workspace. No documentation. The text editor disappears after I run the script Blender BIG FAIL for noobs like me.

I had to google blender.
Subbed.

How to assign IMAGE TEXTURE to Displace modifier using this metod???
HELP !!! HELP !!! HELP !!!

What keyboard do you use? I like how it sounds.

Hi, thank you for your awsome tutorial.
I have a question: In the line bpy.ops.mesh.primitive_cube_add()
We assume the dots "." just work like "/" ,so how about the "_" ?
What's difference between dots and underscores ?

i want script to imports 3ds max file into blender with textures how can i do that?

As you seem to be fairly knowledgeable of python scripting, I wonder if you could take a deeper/advance dive into the topic by explaining how the bpy integrates into blender app at a finer level and how to do certain things in the python scripts to avoid locking the UI, to avoid crashing the app etc (e.g. if you make some non thread-safe calls etc). I’m looking at creating a TCP communication between an external app and blender to be able to transfer hierarchy of data (e.g.transforms between parent/child nodes etc) and update the scene based on this data dynamically as it is being transferred, and I need to understand how to handle the receiving of the data as to 1. not freeze the UI .. and 2. to update the scene as to not crash the app. This most likely entails using separate threads etc and perhaps tap into blender bpy mechanism to trigger updates of the scene / viewport in a thread safe manner etc.

Anyone know how i can make a script that i can use as a driver with each object having its own object property to drive its own independant values? I literally cannot figure this out.

Example would be moving object A 1 per frame while object B moves 2 per frame based on its object property "speed". the script should work on all objects that have the object property.

Great stuff, thanks!

Hey, thanks so much for your content, it’s so helpful and inspiring.

If I change a script externally,, like in VS Code, will Blender reload automatically it like in Unity?

hi, im new here and i have a question for the material command, witch is {mod_displace.texture = new_tex}; for some reason blender sais it's not a real command, what should i do???


ps: my blender version is 3.4.1

This was a great intro. Thank you!

Is it possible to run a script like this from command line and render it into a mp4 file?

I wanna learn python to creat a shader in blender? how to do that... fully new!?

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Great tutorial, thanks for sharing

Again taking on a herculean task ...amazing!

Anyone else having problems getting the "My Operator" pop-up Add-On to appear in the viewport? Not sure if it is me or if Blender changed something that messes it up now. I can see it in the F3 search function, but when I run the script and click "My Operator" in search no pop-up shows up.

Well done!

Wow! Thank you for this video! I'm very new going on with python. I got a very good feeling for codings now, thank you! :))))

Does someone know, how to make an addon where you can import custom models?
I´m trying to make an addon, where you can generate a minecraft world and for that i need a way to store the file with the node tree in a ziped addon folder.
The thing is, that i have no idea how to do this.
Does anyone know how this works?

A few changes it looks like here and there for Blender 3, but very good tutorial. Great for newbies. People with python experience might be bored in some parts, but it's all about Blender.

Amazing explanation thank you very much!

This was one of the BEST tutorials on Blender for python, I think Blender notebook for jupyter addon would be added advantage as well

You will definitely become the top 1 who makes cracks

Fantastic tutorial, pace is perfect, just what I needed. Thank you!

it work on my pc thx bro vеry much

warning this video contain code 😂

Lost me at the operator part

Terrific ! Thank you for such a clear totally working tutorial !!

BRO!! Good tut

Mine looks notNice tutorialng like the way you guys started it would be amazing if soone told how to get the multiple tracks

You are an excellent instructor. I will stick with you.

i have no idea why, but hearing your voice just makes feel soothed.

its not Euler, its Euler!

Thank you very much for explaining the materials.
I have a question, Could you please explain how to assign an image to image texture inside materials?

Wonderful tutorial, it allowed me to automate some simple commands, however I am running into some issues with Blender not being able to keep it loaded between sessions.
Everything works when running the script, and I can find it in the F3 menu thanks to your pinned comment.

I have loaded it as a plugin and assigned a hotkey to it, however this all disappears between sessions.. UNTIL I run the script again from the Scripting tab, then it all comes back, the keybind and all. It's very strange and I can't figure out why it's acting like this. Any ideas?

Thank god for the warning

I don’t need to install a second program to program in Blender, amazing

Genuinely amazing and underrated tutorial, I've learnt so much!

The way you are able to identify smaller details and relay the information to your viewers is incredible. You even went into the minor stuff that someone new to python programming needed to know, not just blender related details. You have my respect!

I have a problem. If I run the code, it opens the custom menu, any ideas?

Thank you so much.

Absolutely wonderful tutorial! Thank you brotha
