I'm too stupid to understand geo nodes but I loved the way you made a visual representation at 0:30 that's really cool! +1 sub

[@yesway.studio]

@@SpaceDorito haha thanks!! It's just experience + some math knowledge

[@nathan_smith]

Bro I don’t know how you haven’t blown up yet, your content is next level. Keep it up!

[@yesway.studio]

haha Thanks! This is my third tut, also my videos are very specific so not many people will watch it, unfortunately.

[@jonnuredini3408]

Congrats on your work Yesway went through your videos saw an amazing work, one thing i like is that your work is similar to microsoft 3d videos which is a style i really like, maybe just to give you an idea because ive been experimenting with papers in blender a lot, maybe you would like to show us a technique that you use for page twits, rolls or anything else related to that, have a great day!

[@yesway.studio]

Thx!!! Yeah Microsoft videos are so satisfying to watch. Great idea, I ussually use cloth modifier and some other things for paper stuff to get a real, clothy result. But ofc we can try using this curve modifier :)

[@ericman2323]

I really appreciate these instructional videos and breakdowns. Thank you, Sir!

[@yesway.studio]

You're welcome 🤗

[@yesway.studio]

Thanks!!

[@yessinebellaaj6360]

earlier i stumbled upon your channel and gosh! I love your work, it reminds me of microsoft 3D vids kinda vibe! I went through every single vid on your website!, your style is what I'm aiming for! u're truly inspiring and amazing! keep up the great content! U deserve a lot attention!

[@yesway.studio]

You cannot imagine the feeling when I am reading this comment 🥰

[@Pixationforlife]

I've been trying to get into motion graphics. Your work inspired me a lot.

[@digitalinklinations]

One day, I hope to be smart enough to understand it. Great tutorial though!

[@yesway.studio]

Thx! Yep, vector math stuff is quite complex at the first sight, but when u finally get it eveyrhting seems obvious

[@Originallyright]

Found your channel through Map Generator. I love your work and tutorials. Please continue creating these, and I will always look forward to your videos. Hopefully, many people will too. 😊

[@yesway.studio]

@@Originallyright Thank you! That's really lovely 🥹

[@can1bbl3]

This is amazing production value! Love it!

[@yesway.studio]

THANKS!!! thats amazing!

[@arhamsulman4704]

REALLY GOOD SOLUTION TO CURVE MODIFIER

[@yesway.studio]

Glad to hear that!

Great tutorials !!! One time I really need to try really geometry node, but still working on a Blender production workflow. Can learn everything at the same time.

[@yesway.studio]

Thanks!!! It's always better to learn the basics first, geo nodes have so much potential but go get these working you need to get the essentials of the program first. Have a good day!!

[@professordeb]

Fantastic! Thank you!

[@yesway.studio]

[@johnsmith56920]

Great. The thing is I'd like to have the modifier applied to only a selection of the mesh with a smooth transition between the deformed part and the rest of the mesh. I'll explain more if you are interested, the purpose being to have a procedural sculpting tool for organic objects (muscles, knees, sinews) I worked on it a bit but I can't pull it off by myself.

[@yesway.studio]

Yeah it might be difficult. Maybe will figure it out somehow

[@ronitrajput3934]

Thanks a lot for sharing this with us. ❤

[@yesway.studio]

@@ronitrajput3934 my pleasure 😊

[@davidmcsween]

Wow, just the first few minutes was awesome thanks! But I'd also like a quick tutorial on your explainer graphics they look so cool and still a bit challenging to make

[@yesway.studio]

Thank you!!! Which explainer graphics are you talking about exactly? 😁

[@krydroidhexx8439]

Awesome tutorial!

Hello buddy, how are you? My name is Lakhwinder Singh. Thank you so much for the wonderful video, I love it. Thank you so much for putting in the effort and valuable time in this video. I have so many questions in my mind. It's really helpful for me if you answer, thank you. 1) How many years have you been using Blender? 2) How many software are you using for commercial projects, like Blender and DaVinci Resolve, etc.? 3) I want to learn to reach a level like yours. Any tips for me? I learn every day or night. I follow Crossmind Studio tutorial videos, like the Geonodes series. How can I learn this at an advanced level? 4) How did you begin your journey? 5) Should I learn Houdini 20.5? 6) Waiting for your masterpiece video. Thank you! Love from India.

[@yesway.studio]

@@lakhwindersinghmj2095 Hey! Glad to hear that!! 1. 7 years 2. Blender + Da Vinci 3. You just need time. Its about learning stuff from tutorials and then using it in your projects. You start to see patterns and start using them in your own way. 4. I don't remember, I think I wanted to create a game in Unity haha. 5. I think this software is amazing, so yes! 6. 🥹

[@torher436]

Thank you for a great tutorial, it solved a problem I've been struggling with. However, when the object moving along the curve approaches the end, it shrinks along the movement direction, it also happens in the starting end. This is especially noticeable if I try to loop the animation along a closed curve. I've tried different solutions but no success so far. Do you have any idea on how to solve this?

[@yesway.studio]

Yeah, it doesn't work unfortunately for looped curves, you would need to modulo the factor. I believe I made a small mistake in math, so try to download the source file and ttry the geo nodes setup from there. GL!

[@davidmcsween]

From 32 seconds. That's very nice but fiddly to make in Blender

[@yesway.studio]

That's just an isometric view with some toon shaders haha

[@whatisyour8Name]

What modifiers should i use to make for example , a 3km long curve path to go inclined for like 60mts at the end. The road is twisted and have many corners and making it a realistic inclining road is very hard.

[@yesway.studio]

I think u should try looking for a tutorial specific for this problem, having roads bend "naturally" is quite difficult :/

[@ShanKs1]

How did you do these moves? Can you explain them fully please? 6:39

[@yesway.studio]

haha, it's a bit more complicated but not in short I used this custom curve modifier and just add a vector mix node and use the factor to apply the strength of the displacement. So the same geo nodes setup, just add the v mix node.

[@delali-dz]

im too dumb for this. i like it tho

[@yesway.studio]

Haha. Rly? I tried my best to keep it simple 😭

[@ujwalvibing]

i'll watch this again when im smart enough

[@yesway.studio]

Bahahah

[@TheAptimn]

Is there a way to do this for a dynamic cloth ribbon?

[@yesway.studio]

Idk honestly. U can create the basic shape with that but cloth modifier won't work as intended when u use the slider. Simulations overwritte the geometry info (unless it's scaling)

[@TomasBeluga]

❤❤ nice, why this vidoe has a different voice?? 🧐

[@yesway.studio]

My mic is terrible, had to use AI speech to speech to get rid of the noise haha

[@alexjanaqi]

I am very curious to know how did you animate the graphs. Is it 3d or not?

[@yesway.studio]

It's aaaalll blender

[@I.a.m.123]

How did you learn to do the equation and figure this out?! I can't understand how you can come to this conclusion. You're clearly right and it's awesome but i wish i could think like this!

[@yesway.studio]

haha, thanks! Yeah, it requires some thinking but if you do geo nodes often you can see some patterns and solutions come to head much easier. And ofc some math knowledge haha

[@juan_0007]

sorry but I am facing a really annoying issue, I checked really carefully if the nodes were plugged together correctly and it all seems good, but using the modifier I notice that the object that's being curved doesn't run trough all the curve because the factor stops to zero, I barely solved it putting a subtract of 0.22 to the factor but it's a bit annoying that It doesn't work perfectly following the tutorial, btw thanks for the video it was really helpful.

[@yesway.studio]

@@juan_0007 maybe need to check the math of how it calculates the length of the object

[@yesway.studio]

Try to download the file, I think I fixed that already.

[@DesignerNetanel]

Please can you make a tutorial about how to make those wavy animations please🙏🙏🙏

[@yesway.studio]

Maybe will record something like that also! Thank you!

[@kodeth5200]

i got a dumb question how was that curve made? do i make it inkscape then import it or how do i do it in blender lol im new to this, and i really want to understand this

[@yesway.studio]

Hahah. Just add a bezier curve or add a single vertex, extrude it and add subdivision surface to make it smooth. Good luck!

[@neilmarshall5087]

In the Blender Addons find and activate the Extra Curve Objects Addon. Then you have a Add > Curve > Curve Spirals > Archemedian option available. Yes they have it spelled wrong. Add an Archimedian spiral, set Turns and Height to 5 (in the pop up Options Window) and you have close to the same Spiral Curve as in the video. Check out all the other curve shapes too. And activate the Extra Mesh Objects also. Read the manual. Only the parts you want to learn. TAKE NOTES. This will cut off months of stumbling around in YT looking. Again: TAKE NOTES. And Bookmark everything useful. There are no dumb questions.....

[@kodeth5200]

@neilmarshall5087 you are the best!! I checked its working!!! THANK YOU

[@neilmarshall5087]

@@kodeth5200 Glad to help. Have fun.

[@newgamers8028]

hi, how to create such materials as i have seen in 00:26, kindly guide please.

[@yesway.studio]

Just use gradient texture and set the transmission to 1, roughness to 0,3 and that's the whole magic baabh
