Most software nowadays use node materials and I understand there is a lot of power in it but to me it seems like a system invented by engineers for coders (especially the one implemented in redshift). From an artist's point of view, it takes away from the creative process of an artist. More time is spent figuring out how the material system works than actually concentrating on one's artwork.

I can definitely understand where you are coming from. For me I started with Blender, which had Nodes then I got more serious with 3d and learned Mental Ray in 3ds max. Then I learned Arnold, then I learned Redshift. I personally prefer the Node style. For me it speeds up the process. It definitely has a steep learning curve. But once you understand it it's much faster for me because I can see everything all at once. I can see the workflow and how things are affecting each other faster than flipping through tabs and a more classic hierarchical system. I like how nodes present a physical representation of the way your material is being created by the software. But I can understand it's not for everyone, but if you want to learn more and take a deep dive into Redshift's shader graph I have a course that does just that, that might help. - skl.sh/2B91uog Thanks for sharing.

When you are hired by a client, you need to achieve the result that they are paying you for, and PBR is quickly becoming the standard (as opposed to the usual ‘standard,’ which is let’s just slide around the buttons until something looks cool). You wouldn’t get on a piano and just start hammering on the keys, even tho that is technically ‘art.’ Learn the tools and process of your craft.

Remember to use the gamma override checkbox for things like normal, roughness etc... as they are linear values rather than sRGB like the diffuse. For people who dont know what this means look up linear workflows and it should help you understand why it matters.

Yes, this can be needed for sure, most commonly you'll need to check the Gamma box and set it to 2.2 if its a texture image.

I think that the gloss maps should be inverted and plugged into the roughness slot for an RS material (inverted bc a gloss map is the opposite of a roughness map). Good tip though on using the grunge map as a subtle bump for effect...I’ll def try that one =)
@effectatron
@effectatron 3 жыл бұрын
Yes! You are correct I have been meaning to add that in the description. You can invert it with a color invert node or a ramp with the ramp inverted. Also RS has a feature in the advanced tab that has a checkbox to convert gloss map to roughness

why would you plug a smudge into a bump? shouldnt that be in the roughness map?
@effectatron
@effectatron 4 жыл бұрын
You could do Roughness. I like to though it in the bump because if there is enough oil from your hand to lave a fingerprint on a glass, you can actually see it has thickness. Same with a grimy floor, wear and tear on the floor seal from dirt or scuffs or cuts is what causes the reflections to look like that more than the glossiness of the floor. Not saying u can't plug it into the roughness but by plugging it into the bump and having my camera very low to the floor makes its really look like crime and wear. :)

@@effectatron what if you wanted to put some scratches on the surface as well? wouldnt that be in the bump since it has depth? Im still trying to wrap my head around Redshift. its different and more complicated to doing things with standard C4D materials.
@effectatron
@effectatron 4 жыл бұрын
@@yoyoz333 Yes. I think I put the smudges in the coat bump, I can't remember. But thats like a layer on top, like a sealant kinda thing. But I am actually currently working on a Redshift Materials course and have learned some better techniques. Blending multiple things for bump and roughness and adding ramps and control etc. I will walk through the process of making a ton o materials and explain how each thing effects the final result. To answer your question yes. You could put scratches in a bump map and use a bump blend map to combine the scratches and the floor bump. or add it to the bump coat the same way. But yes you would ad cuts to the bump :)

Hey, great video! Can you help me explain to me something specific about nodes. When linking a texture to lets say "reflection weight" for example, that the 'weight' parameter freezers and can't be adjusted. This can apply to other connections in nodes. I'm just trying to understand the theory a little bit more. I've been using C4D Redshift for a little while now, thanks.

how can i view texture on view port without using the render view
@effectatron
@effectatron 4 жыл бұрын
If you plug the bitmap or whatever is driving your diffuse straight into the surface it will show in your viewport. You will need to reconnect ur rs material to the surface when you are ready to render though. :)

Did you know Poliigon provides a free plugin that will automatically create the material for Cinema 4D based on the rendering engine you want to use. I use it all the time to create Redshift materials, and even though they are not perfect, it's a huge time saver since it creates the material and brings in all the maps and wires them together. You can always go back in and adjust settings if you don't like them.

@effectatron

Idk, it seems like an issue with your UV mapping. You could try to set it to cubic instead of UV mapping in the material option and see if that fixes it. But double check with the IPR preview, the viewport is not the best for Redshift, the beauty of Redshift is u can have a preview of a render going while you work instead of relying on your viewport. So it will be more accurate.

I agree it can be a bit overwhelming. I actually have a course on Skillshare -skl.sh/39nQsXT "Introdcution to Redshift: The Basics" That is designed to demystify many things in Redshift that can be overwhelming. Maybe that would be helpful. I'm also working on a Material Course designed to unpack from the ground up a lot of the Shader Graphs tools and nodes.

If I turn On Tessalation Override on a Cube, it becomes a Sphere...
@effectatron
@effectatron 5 жыл бұрын
It can if you don't have enough polygons or segments in your geometry for your cube. Tessellation Overdrive is the same as adding a Subdivision modifier. If that is happening you can add more segments to your cube, use the Loop Cut tool and cut around the borders, or highlight your edges and bevel them. Or Fillet your cube. Several ways to add geometry near the hard edges of the cube to help it keep its shape when (smoothed) tessellated. The it won't become a sphere anymore :)
