C4D would have its own build.

Of course!!!

Hmm…. Very strange. Try going on the discord and posting your file there

Yes I agree!

I mean maybe. Hahaha.

All these cards run roughly in the same ballpark. The big difference is if can handle more power and higher mhz for overclocking which isn’t great for your thermostat and not great for the card either.

@@djtutorialscgi thx u but I ha e other question 😅,why u will choose: -Asus Strix 3090 Outlet 700k cash -Manli rtx 3090 Outlet 603.750 cash -Pny Uprising 3090 720k but in 3 cuotes. New. -AMD RX Pulse 7800 xt 708.990 New. -AMD Powercolor 6900 xt 720k Little Used.. -Rtx 4070 is little more cost,but performance cant compete,super are more expensive. #Outlet are previous used for the seller with webpage an warranty 6 Months but think are minning(6 Months) because comments in reddit. What u Think? For me Strix 3090 is to good for price and performance but idk I need question to seller what using it have. But warranty is warranty idk. I know pny uprising not is the top model is like founders in MHZ Boost.

The RTX40 series is a huge step up compared to 30 series. Do not buy AMD for cgi Blender computing. If you can get a cheap 3090, then yes. Rtx4070ti super and rtx4800 Super are the best cards at the moment.

@@user-kv5he9np2y I will actually be selling my RTX3090. It's out of warranty and only two monitor inputs work. Will be selling $400 OBO and as is. Let me know if you're interested.

I haven't been able to get the latest version working in an ubuntu based distro. Not really sure what the issue is.

@@openwoundproductions1662 Ok. I remember that on Ubuntu I was able to get it to work. Maybe you don't have HIP installed. But that should not be the case. These solutions for professionals from AMD are a joke. It's a shame, because I'm very much a fan of this company. I wish Nvidia had some real competitor.

I haven’t been doing anything recently on those render techniques. Octane is the most stable and has great results. I haven’t looked at the spectral branch but send a link and I’ll check it out.

Sorry. Can you please translate to English?

Blender Guru is an OG and has some of the worst pedagogy I’ve ever seen as an instructor.

Not sure if it changed but at the time yes

Doing large professional level sims simply take a long time. For it to be realistic, you will need to reference other project files from FF for some settings but really it’s a lot of time running the sims then re-running them. If you want more instant results, I know Embergen is in BETA right now with some sim software.

Hmm… is it when you go to render in viewport? When do you get this message? Also are you running GPU? If so, AMD or Nvidia GPU?

@@djtutorialscgi It starts already in the Material Preview shading mode, no matter what the render engine is, CPU or GPU. And the scene is not rendered as well. Have tried on 2 Workstations: Xeon and i7 with GeForce and Quadro respectively.

Interesting… if you jump on the discord perhaps me or another user can help more directly.

@@djtutorialscgi thanks, I'll do. I came to this video because I was looking for solution.

@vladartov2817 what you are running into sounds like a very technical issue. Either you’re missing a driver, not using compatible components or some other specific technical issue. Maybe we can help figure it out.

Not sure what you mean by rigid. Sometimes they can be very sharp if the light size is tiny.

@@djtutorialscgi ohhh ok I think sharp is a better word for it! Yeah. The caustics were very sharp. Thank you so much!

Hi there. Thank you. I do have some videos on how to do fluid sims. For this one specifically, it would be difficult to do one :)

I don’t think so, no

No. Not even a little bit.

No I don’t. You could mix your paint material with the wood grain material using a mix or add node.

I've been trying a few things, mostly procedural wood grains, but I haven't found just the right ingredients yet. I think I'll try a PBR texture next

Thanks!

You're confusing something. You can get the text you want to see with Translucency or Transparency with Roughness (LED diffuser = Frostglass). This tutorial is about subsurface scattering, which is what you see with wax, milk, plastic or skin. The light spreads inside the material. You can't see text through a glass of milk.

@@cr4723 It depends on the thickness of the glass... In my work, I'm using plastics (DF93 or Evonic 0O200) which are light scattering materials. They are completely glossy on the surface (unlike surface textured transparent materials, like plexiglass with a VDI3400 texture). I have a real sample with 3 different thickness areas 1,2 and 3 mm. These are volumetric scattering materials to diffuse light but at the same time have a high gloss factor on the surface. (Some of them, like DF45 even have paint particles mixed into them). Depending on the thickness and on the distance to the printed paper with text, you can clearly read the text behind it which is good because that helps to determine the amount of scattering. I have to revise myself though, as one reader has contacted me and showed me how to do such a material in Luxcore. It works (kind of) but it's hard to control and not very straightforward to set up.

​@@SteveThinman It has nothing to do with glossyness. You need a glossyness / reflection on the surface, this works (similar to glass). And then you need roughness in the transparency. These are 2 different parameters. But in Luxcore you can made a milky plexiglass with the "Glossy Translucent Node" into the Material Input and a "Homogeneous Volume Node" into the Interior Volume Input. In "Glossy Translucent Node" the Diffuse Color must be black, Transmission color white! Then you play in the "Homogeneous Volume Node" with the Absorbtion and Scattering Scale. That works, because that annoys me, because I don't want to see the background through. :) You can test it on the monkeys ear, it is thin enough. Good luck!

You would need a normal map or to make it a 3D modeled element.

Hope you’re enjoying the channel!

I’m not sure if the latest released build works with Blender 4.0. Did you grab a development build of LuxCore or the official release version?

@@djtutorialscgi I used the 'Official Release', compatible with v.3.0+ of Blender. It was the latest I could find. I've just tried to install the same version of the Add-on on Blender v.3.5 without any apparent issues. Maybe development and update of the Add-on is either halted or ceased all together. Guess I'll have to do a bit of 'research' on this topic. 'Preciate you taking the time to reply, though this tutorial may be slightly 'dated'.

@DeBeau it may be dated but generally speaking with LuxCore, you need to get the development builds or use a version of Blender that is compatible. LuxCore has a small dev group and they try and keep up with Blender, but often addon devs are behind the newest versions of the base applications.

@@djtutorialscgi I know indie developers have quite a task keeping up with bigger and more established teams. And I'll happily use an older version of Blender if that means I'll be able to make use of the add-on. I'm just glad to know I'll still be able to use it. In fact, if not for tutorials like this one, showing what can be achieved with a bit of perseverance, lazy guys like myself would have a hard time maintaining our motivation. So... Though it may not come across that way, I'm actually quite grateful that people with your level of skills are willing to share the tutorials on this platform. Thanks, really.

No worries- thanks for the advice

Hello- thank you for taking the course. I do not give any permission to create this design in a commercial capacity. If you are interested in purchasing commercial rights, please contact me through my email.

Yes it can. Why do you say it can’t?

@@djtutorialscgi Every LuxCore video I've seen, the render times per frame are absolutely ridiculous. Rendering the hundreds, or thousands of frames needed for an animation wouldn't work for users at home.

@LeukickEDM ah yes. If you remove the caustics it speeds up a lot. Also, I have a video on how to mix the caustics layer effects from LuxCore and composite it onto a Cycles or Eevee layer. Check it out!

@@djtutorialscgi Incredible, I will have to look for and check that video out a bit later!

Thanks :)

I think there’s a Mac branch in the dev builds. You might need to check the forums.

tried almost all of them nothing worked gave me an py error when i tried enabling it after installing; Is there any news or sources regarding arm builds for Luxcore Addon?@@djtutorialscgi
