shocking revelation about that M3 Max. Keen for the proper breakdown

[@Hululikemulu]

Как же радует глаз видеть такого успешного в CG русскоговорящего человека ) Рад что вернулся в ютуб. Keep it up brother

[@hExZinc]

Welcome back and welcome to the Houdini family! Hyped!

[@berer.]

Good to see you back + safe I guess given the circumstances. On my journey I've ended up working with Blender/Unreal Engine 5. They both have Octane support too.

[@cocinando3d]

I want to congratulate you on the quality of your channel. From the first videos on effects and render contests to now, you have proven to be an inspiration. I'm glad I got to greet you at the convention in A Coruña at Mundo Digitales :)

[@yoonkyunlee7580]

Great to see you back! 😊 If you already have the Clarisse IFX videos and it’s not too much work to release them, it would be really helpful for those still using it. I’m sure a lot of people would love to see the magic behind what you’ve created!

[@Mama-pt7lm]

So happy to see you back, i started Houdini earlier this year and was amazed by its possibilities. Also started 3D in 2019 with your tutorials, and now i've been working in the industry for a few years :)

[@xanzuls]

That's good to know dude. I hope we get to know more about the stuff you've been working on and make more videos.

[@thebunn]

Stoked you are still crushing it. Your work is incredible.

[@Blearky]

So good to see you again brother! Keep up the work and rly appreciate your honesty and hope that things get better. Hope to see more stuff, tutorials, vlogs and whatever you come up with. Also doing stuff around your Mac seems like a good way to show the progress cause most people wont have a fully speched Mac but even less have a server like you. I am hyped for what you cooking in the future!

[@stemfourvisual]

Great to your face again 😎The work looks incredible, as does the space. Should have known you’d been super busy.

[@anointed4artistry160]

I knew you were working and going to come back with 10X more golden nuggets for us. So glad to have you back Andrey!

[@viktorragnemar9018]

Nice to see you back. I'm a bit tired of my PC setup so this is a very interesting find!

[@theacer7864]

Welcome back Andrey! Wishing you all luck and can't wait to watch your coming masterpieces!

[@AntonioKowatsch]

Welcome back, man. I missed your content.

[@spazzimcgee]

Always excited to hear from you Andrey! Also very happy to hear you back on Octane!

[@jamesbowman4667]

It's great to see you back. I was even a little worried. I can't wait to see more about what you're up to.

[@FaysalAhmedHabib]

Great to have you back Andrey! I was just thinking you would be back again, love your videos. hopefully, you will continue again. Thanks

[@doc_noki]

sooo soo glad to see you back. Crazy story with clarisse. Can't wait to see your new journey

Glad to have you back, Andrey!

[@saifsami_ss]

Nice to see you again Andrey. And i was super excited when I heard you started to use Solaris 🔥🔥

[@Alrexcalibur]

Welcome to the Houdini family! I have also been shocked at the performance by the new MacBooks and not only performance but also incredible battery life for such performance.

[@yohannesJas]

Welcome back, man. Damn, time flies. You are still awesome.

[@Aselia-q6w]

The GOAT is BACK!!!!! Super excited for this one man! Holy cow it is been a while!

welcome back master.

[@seannarro92]

This is so awesome! Absolutely loved your creature, such stunning glow effect, and thanks for calling it as it really is - war. Cheers from Ukraine, I'm fan only since 2021, I'll try to achieve something myself, just like you did.

[@namandeep3562]

As a 3d artist I love m series macbook pros, I often model in blender and texture in substance and the workflow is so smooth and optimised, still baffles me.

[@lucassalomon3144]

[@cymarin3d511]

Yay you are back. Good stuff 💗

[@yinon_tal]

You have a beautifull works art. To know houdini like you demonstrates in the video, its such amazing!

[@folders_apries]

nice to see you back chief!

[@joedidathing]

Really glad to hear your pushing otoy for desperately required basics for handling large production workflows and density. I use octane full time at my job to render complex engineering/architecture projects and although its gotten better, octane still struggles with stability sometimes when working with huge muli-Gb models out of revit and other AEC apps

[@Nurparatodos]

great idea!!!

[@fkflby]

happy to see you again

[@vladan.Poison]

misssd you . good to hear you are still alive and kicking

[@ivansemchuk]

Hey, weclome back! Really glad you helped some talented people from Ukraine join your team. Hope you will grow bigger! Also glad you find Solaris as a good substitute. So am I. Trying to learn this new stuff. Seems promising! Looking forward seeing new stuff here! And hello from Kyiv!)

Good too see you sir 💪

[@voxyde]

Houdini time baby lets go!

[@omidpakbin]

As a RNDR holder, I'm happy about this. I also second your comments on the M3 Max. I switched from a Threadripper 3960x + RTX 3090 + 256GB RAM workstation to the M3 Max Macbook Pro, and it has changed my pro life so much. It's faster, better, quieter, and of course I don't have to deal with Windows BS anymore.

[@mxgn0]

i looooove our community

[@taon]

Hey, could you develop on your workflow and how switching to M3 MacBook improved it ? What about the rendering part ? Thanks

[@omidpakbin]

​@@taon Hey. Doing video production work (After Effects, Davinci, Premiere Pro) is faster and smoother than my giant PC workstation. Blender works flawlessly on my M3 Max too, but CyclesX render is slightly slower than RTX 3090. That means a RTX 4090 would probably be 2x faster than my M3 Max. I'm totally okay with that, as I would send heavy renders to render farm anyway. It's a night and day difference. I will not go back to windows.

[@redbunnyclassic]

Welcome back!

[@lllllllllllwilliamlllllllllll]

Welcome back!!!

[@JoepSwagemakers]

I love that you painted the walls black,, it works really well with all the black equipment. I'm considering to do the same with my new studio. What color did you paint the floor? Also black? As much black as possible?

[@sergiencoivan7985]

Welcome back, legend

[@ramazanakbuga]

[@mad-cyantist3159]

Glad to hear you're back. Your Clarrise tips could still be useful to some people If you can't get virgin in ur area. What is BT saying about your internet? Can't they get you 1 GIG speeds or is that too slow?

[@Mwelwajr]

Welcome back, it’s been long

[@NirmalVfxArtist]

Finally Houdini! nice to see it! You have always inspired me! I was able to get a job thanks to the videos i watched from you when i was young. Let me know if I could ever help you on any project. My work is on my channel! Thank u

Oh haha. 😂 Thanks for the reply! Cheers.

[@billB101]

Nice to see you back. No Unreal engine?

[@AndreyLebrov]

I tried it, it’s fun, have to be honest 😄 but it doesn’t scale and UI and everything… not my cup of tea yet

[@billB101]

@@AndreyLebrov I hear that, it's definitely getting there though. Real time and photorealism will be nuts.

[@Orray]

@@AndreyLebrov no pressure, its just a tool. Once the time demands a real-time rendering engine, just clean the dust off it.

The king is back boys

[@iamNO1UKN0]

Per your M3 Macbook faster than your 32 Core, I agree. Not too long ago, I built a 24 Core Threadripper Beast and now I just dropped the card on a BD790i ITX motherboard with built in CPU that pulls around 32000 on Cinebench 2023 thus slaughtering my beast. I have a spare RTX 3080 I'll use until the 50's come out. Good to see you safe and have fun! no1ukn0

[@alekseynedovesov770]

❤☠🤖

[@cjadams7434]

Yeah.. i have to agree.. its network rendering rocks!… i even use my RTX 4080 VR PC as a “EGPU” like render node for my M2 Ultra mac studio machine.. NICE to have all that ram/vram! - and if i need more i can easily just go to the RNDR network without any changes… So.. its a wonderful workflow.. I run the PC headless and don’t even have to touch it. ALSO no need to install any software or plugins on the network nodes. Just add a 10G network card on your local PC’s and add a 2nd dongle for internet on the mac and use its main ethernet at 10G speeds for rendering with a different subnet. Best of both worlds. Nice to see octane having a good moment here!. it really is nice and scaleable and don’t have to pay extra “full seat” fees like with Redshift.. Come one maxon.. cough up a few free render nodes already.. !

Have you ever tried Blender and what are your thoughts on it if so?

[@AndreyLebrov]

Blender is epic and moves in correct direction. Definitely recommended. I'm getting too old to "try" and my last resorts are spent on Houdini where I'm going to stay haha. My team is on blender and I'm impressed with everything they're doing
