Thanks, Grant! I was waiting for you to give me the news on Blender 4. Your videos are always so clear and informative.

Because of you and the courses that you have created, this is the only reason I am enjoying working with blender and character modeling and world designing to this day, So I have to thank you so much for being such a wonderful teacher. I wish you every bit of success.And once again, thank you!

Just got your Animation course! Haven't started yet 'cause I'm doing other courses, but the moment I saw the course was by you it was an instant purchase!

The changes to snapping are long overdue and the new colour management looks promising. Not too sure about the new modifier menu, it was fine the way it was.
However, I do wonder if the subsurface no longer having its own colour is going to be a problem. Although the docs do say something about a "new subsurface scale input to adjust the RGB radius", so there might be some interesting things to do with subsurf.

Great video, Grant, as always. FYI, for the new look Modifiers menu, if you're not a fan, there is an add-on available already which replaces it with the pre 4.0 version.

I'm dead LIGHT LINKING FINALLY OMG. Literally screamed and spun around in my chair 🥲

Not a fan of that new modifier menu, but I can understand why they did it from a UI perspective. Thanks for covering this Grant!

[dillenbata]

Thanks for the info. I've already bought almost all of the blender courses. Thanks for all your hard work.

[AngelCnderDreamer]

These changes look incrediable! :D I am so happy they finally added a search for modifiers! Oh my stars that gonna be useful, especially the shortcut commands below?! Wow! This is game changer. :D Especially the animation collection, that looks easier to name an animation.

Thanks for the great breakdown Grant. The new snapping function looks AWESOME! Excited to get in 4.0 and try it.

Oh, Hi teach! Just started the new animation course.

[philipmcdonnell]

I’ve finally coughed up the money for a new Mac so I hope to be able to make the most of v.4 and the courses I’ve bought. 😊

Thanks Grant for this. I have been playing with Light linking and AGX for a month now with beta and love these new features. ❤

-Hi Grant, there are new changes about weight paint mode in Blender 4.0 they replaced bone selection shortcut in weight mode ctrl+shift+left-click instead of ctrl+left-click, now ctrl+left-click reverse the weight of the brush and shift+left-click does exactly the same job with Blur brush.
-Also developers wanna change that bone selection shortcut with more easy way for the next updates, maybe you wanna talk about those changes in the Blender Animation & Rigging course or updating it.
