All 80+ Blender material nodes explained in under 30 minutes

Discord server: / discord
In this tutorial, I'll be explaining every single Blender material node there is, while keeping it beginner friendly. In Blender 2.8, material nodes have been expanded to include a few more. Astoundingly, no one has done this yet, so I thought I would take one for the team. After all, someone had to do it.

Plus, now that I know more about each node, it's gonna be way easier to search for solutions on Google, because I'm actually gonna be able to search things like "How to use the fresnel node" instead of "How can I make object glossy and reflective".

14:20 The translucent bsdf does not "increase" the ability to see through an object. It aborbs light that passes though it on the opposite side. Great video overall and very helpful.

[@DanielKrafft]

Ah. Good explanation! Thanks dude

[@lawrencedoliveiro9104]

Actually no, it is implemented as a backwards diffuse shader. That is, it reflects light that hits it on the opposite side. That’s why there is no “translucency” slider, to control the strength of the effect.

[@hunted4blood]

A couple things people might find good to know: The reflection texture coordinate is designed to be used with an environment texture or some other cube map. It's not very useful for cycles but it's very helpful if you're making assets to be used in a game engine. The white noise texture always gives a discrete output, so if you use an input with smooth gradients the noise will change as you zoom in. It's best for stuff like the voronoi texture's position vector, particle location vectors, or any vector put through a vector math node set to "snap"

[@wolfeatsheep163]

wow i hardly understood any of that who are you and could you please mentor for me once in a while

[@hunted4blood]

@@wolfeatsheep163 I really just did a bad job of explaining it. I learned everything I know just by messing around and reading the manual. There's really not a better way than figuring it out yourself. Just get an HDRI off some website and plug it into a reflection node, it should all make sense then. As for the white noise thing, it's hard to explain. Just try it on any vector and then do the same thing but with a voronoi node inbetween the vector and the noise, and you should more or less see what I meant.

I also appreciate you referring watchers to the official documentation, since many properties just cannot be adequately explained in video format.

20:54 The Distance parameter controls the sampling interval. The conversion is being done through numerical differentiation, not through any analytic formula. This is necessarily an approximate procedure, and the sampling interval controls the tradeoff between accuracy and speed.

[@lawrencedoliveiro9104]

8:39 The Glass shader is basically a convenience shader. You can achieve the same effect by mixing the Refraction and Glossy shaders. Oh, and it isn’t just for glass. It can be used to model any transparent material, such as liquid water. One way these materials differ from each other is in the IOR.

Each one of these deserves its own tutorial. Most tutorials just show how to use some feature without explaining how it works, so learning is much slower than it could be with appropriate explanation of what is that is the principle behind it. This is tutorial in great direction, but there is a lot of people who would benefit a lot from more detailed explanation of principles and demonstration of different tools inc. nodes. Tnx for this and I hope you or someone will start making tutorials which explain principles behind Blender tools and not just one use per tool.

28:22 The reroute node isn’t just useful for diverting noodles out of the way of each other, it is also handy for feeding a single source into multiple destinations, where you might want to change your mind about where the source comes from. Just put a different source into the reroute, and all those destinations are now picking up the new source, instead of having to change them one by one.

[@lawrencedoliveiro9104]

20:20 That’s not really what Light Falloff is for. What it is for is to produce nonphysical, but more pleasing, behaviours to light intensity. In the real world, light emanations normally follow the “inverse square” law, which means that, when you double the distance from the light, the intensity falls to one-quarter, just for example. The Light Falloff node lets you change this behaviour to “inverse linear” (where the intensity at double the distance is still one-half), or “constant” (where the intensity does not diminish with distance at all). For example, I have heard some artists complain that inverse-square falloff can produce quite harsh lighting in some situations. In the real world, you cannot fix the laws of physics, but in Blender, you can choose a different light falloff.
