One of the most comprehensive tutorials on Point Cloud I ever come across! Love it!

[@Fabdores]

Amazing tutorial !!! congrats, very clear and so interesing ! Part 2 Please!!! You rock!!

[@saulriosvidal4484]

Wish the right top of screen wasn’t covered, makes it really hard to follow along as well as video cutting to other segments without describing how they got there

@massimo vendola

[@Nanotopia]

🤩 thank YOU for sharing this information! Please make a part 2 🎉

[@zpacetree]

switched to cycles rending and it worked flawlessly. this tutorial also opened my eyes to many possibilities in the 3d realm, thank you🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@ranasamir]

Very nice. Please make a part 2.

[@pablomarroquin872]

Part 2 Please!!! You rock!! 🔥

[@michaelhicks8603]

Reallly looking for videos going from point cloud to mesh. This is by far the most useful reason to work with point clouds in the first place, and is ironically the least documented process 😂

[@SayonBiz]

The best tutorial I could find on this topic❤❤ SOO GOOD!! Thank you soo soo much 🙌🏼

[@misha.karpenko]

Great tutorial! Part 2 please!

[@uxedmedia]

epic! and yes part 2!!😁

[@_blender_man_]

Sure! We wnat a PART2! thanks a lot! I already made my room and I love this effect!

[@Eri-n7z]

Thanks for sharing!! Please part 2!!

[@paulcottet2209]

perfect! is that what i need ! And now I need the second part !

[@codycamethru5234]

Im on Cycles, and when I go to render view I see darkness with an outline.. in the shading (color attribute) is hooked up.. everything seems correct. but I can't get the colors onto mesh to points!!!!

[@coconurt7153]

me neither

[@ColombusLeBus]

Very good tutorial ! Would be great if your shortcut pressed would show on the video + make the camera smaller to be able to see more, I am not very familiar with blender and I had a hard time to guess how to change my render properties and use the viewport shading, otherwise thank you very much !

[@joshraab6469]

I had the same issue. Great tutorial but couldn't figure this out. Does anyone know how to enter render view?

[@sm1leyworld]

@@joshraab6469 Press Z and click rendered

[@TTBuilds]

awesome a friend and i were only talking about this last night, very comprehensive guide, the things you could do with this are vast, holograms etc

[@GuGuSheep]

Perfect tutorial dude, nice job! Magnificant effects and all this setup, amazing!)

[@mornChen]

That's so cool!!!!!Perfect tutorial dude,It has greatly helped me! Thanks!

[@rhettllewellyn3600]

anyone having the problem that when you go into rendered veiw nothing appears even once all the nodes are complete?

[@leonardoyousefpor]

Same problem

[@Jaschasuess]

Try changing the render engine to cycles instead of evee

[@gassi_]

@@Jaschasuess thank u!

[@jakubmarszaek8330]

yeah, same. under textured viewport nothing shows up the same in eevee, in cycles points appear but they are all black

[@MikeFlex]

@@Jaschasuess this is the solution!

[@thecheeksta9370]

When i import my poly, it has like 7 different materials and 7 different photos for the color, any suggestion on what I might be doing wrong? I exported as gtlf and imported at .glb. Not sure if its because i have the free account for polycam

[@diogoanmartins]

i have the same question

[@trevorsoh2130]

Wow this was a really well explained lesson - thanks! Awesome work - it the first time I’ve seen it!

[@shitshow_1]

Amazing content, Thanks for posting this video!

[@manonboucher1778]

Pleaaaase we want a part 2 !! Love your tutorials !

[@Instant_Nerf]

Really amazing. Kind of fast for someone who doesn’t know about nodes. But enough for the to research more. Thanks part 2 please 👍

[@AlexisRivera3D]

It's crazy how people are taking the best of Geometry Nodes as this video, amazing work!

[@Jham3D]

This is really cool man! Believe it or not, it may come in to play at my job (surveying company). Great use of practical and creative tools!

[@mv_nyc]

Awesome! Yeah I've seen that point clouds are used a lot in the construction/surveying industry. Might have to find a few folks who work with those big lidar cameras 😎

[@namoron]

Good stuff! Would love to learn more in a second part!

[@ariel.project1897]

Bro this is amazing!

[@felixfelix7549]

You're amazing, exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much!!!!❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[@jaschagotting]

when I am using the set Material node, it already does not work. In the rendered view it doesn´t show my any texture... I don´t understand why.

[@jdenn3]

phenomenal tut more please and thank you!

[@rezaman2080]

Massimo, these type of trippy VR videos are so unique and amazing! But I can't find them your channel here. Are you still working on uploading them here? I got discovered you on Instagram but watching videos there is the worst experience... I hope to see more of these man... Such amazing work! 🤯💯💫🙏🏼

[@datamoshii]

I used to do this effect in Agisoft Metashape, but my free trial ended :( now I can do it for free thank u somuch

[@alvarodonquiles7444]

good bless you bro!

[@eddiepersa1752]

This is great Massimo !! Can we have a 2nd part please ? Thaaaaaaanks !!!!

[@valentinahenaopatino1042]

can you help me please? why i cant see the points when i make render ?

[@user-gs4on3hs6t]

awesome tutorial!

[@jochemmessmer]

best tut out there on point clouds, if you ever start a Patreon or Donation whatever, let me know. That you share this info for free should be rewarded.

how do you bake in the vertex color information so that when i export into unreal via fbx it recognizes it? currently it's all just white in unreal.

[@jumbleofwords]

WHEN THE 10 VIDEO HITS

[@sm1leyworld]

I did everything but the color won't show on the object :( I think cuz Im using a OBJ file. Any way to make it work with an OBJ file?

[@santiagoromero3475]

Thanks for this tutorial is very helpful but how do I animate this though?

[@penelopesaladfingers426]

is there a way of turning it into a mesh?

[@soundcoaster3280]

Hi, do u have idea how to export it into Unreal Engine 5? Video is so awesome and i wanted to try add motion capture to path made from scanned mesh.

[@marvinheberger7916]

hey could you give an update on how to work around the missing StoreNamedAttribute node?:)

[@romansmirnov467]

Thank you Good Sir!!!

[@dani.4660]

any idea why my color data gets all turned the same? I cant seem to get different colors for different points and looking in the spreadsheet for the points it shows every point has the same color data.

[@florenciabruck]

me too. did you managed to solve it

[@flexle1963]

Do you have find the solution for it ?

[@nikolaskerameus]

very useful tutorial and very interesting art by yourself! when i try it though i dont see spheres at all, and on top of that, when i click anywhere in the viewport, the entire cloud mesh disappears

[@blazsovdat8677]

are you in cycles?

[@MiDaY_i]

Here from tiktok❤️🔥🔥🔥

[@shotbyschwank]

Where is part 2 please

[@mariabelenbueno]

Does anybody know if ist possible to Import this Animation into Unity for a VR project?

[@neymatobijourney9709]

for Godsake make a part 2

[@getfanmedia]

Interesting, thanks

[@captain3d697]

1:24 bake the textures to one file :)

[@SwethLightD]

I using U4. now i try something new 😊

[@yotube....]

Is there already a part 2????????

[@thelatestshit]

waiting for Part 2

[@BlancoLn]

Please make a part 2 (showing the dissolve effect)

[@ugurboz418]

Thanks for the clear tutorial. But I wanna know that, How can I convert the sphere shapes to cube?

[@bonsoircherie]

WE wanT PART 2 PLEASE! FOR BEGINNERS you have to put your render in CYCLE NOT EVEE to see the effect !!!

[@elydagher3946]

Where is part 2 ? would love a tutorial on the last bit that you didn't touch on

[@Kzyon]

Awesome work! thanks for sharing!! I would love a v2 please! #frame/30 didn't work for me, it doen't change over frames :(

[@Kzyon]

Already solved, you have to delete the driver and create it again while in the 0 frame

[@koningsbruggen]

Hmm the point cloud I got from Luma, is five different materials/colors, how do I combine them?

[@florenciabruck]

Hi, i can not get the mesh to showup. I use Blender 3.6. Anyone that can send me the blender file to see if I mest up any steps? I can subscribe to your Patrone if you give me the file. thanks

[@blazsovdat8677]

are you in cycles?

[@jeffstaub]

I'm in cycles, followed each step I'm sure of it--it's still grey :( I'm only using one scan from scaniverse, and its a gltf. What file format did you use? @Massimo Vendola

[@sebastianszwarc4162]

I have the same problem

[@florenciabruck]

me too. did you managed to solve it

[@ananyaborle5186]

how do you ge the white background?

[@lucho3612]

Ey! could you tell me pls what to do if my pointlcoud has more that 1 texture? how do i arrenge the node tree

[@BorjiDona]

Hi there! How to make points smaller? Thanks :)

[@mv_nyc]

With the set point radius node. Hope that helps

[@_blender_man_]

..and Yes, ive just subscribed )

[@AcidManiak678]

Cool! But what if I need to use not texture but color attribute I exported with alembic?

[@carlas1720]

Hi, do you have issues with compelx scenes with these geometry nodes in blender? I am having CUDA issues when rendering this in 4k and can't explain why.

[@mv_nyc]

You might be running out of VRAM. Try finding ways to lower your usage. Might need lower texture resolutions, lower resolution, tile size or a mix of all

[@linovino1729]

Is there a reason why my colors are not showing

[@underbelly69]

nice! how about doing all this in shader graph in Unity?

[@yayamakes]

Was wondering, would this technique still work if you had a .PLY file?

[@kerimdemir275]

when I import gltf file into Blender point cloud doesn't work. Should I only import obj or ply file in blender to manage it?

[@dimabarba6204]

NODE MESH TO POINST IS AVIABLE FOR BLENDER 2.9? OR THERE IS ANOTHER WAY TO MAKE IT?

[@khalidbilal1901]

Hi i'm facing some issue like when I set geometry nodes and go to render view i see nothing??? ....please advice if you know

[@guillaumem4587]

I have the same problem

change renderer to cycles instead of evee

[@slofil8102]

@@guillaumem4587 omg thanks so much!

[@streamingdev1163]

What about using NerFs? Luma AI? have you ever tried using this process

[@mv_nyc]

I played around with it a little. Maybe at some point I might incorporate it!

[@CaliHomie]

How to export this pointcloud with texture to unreal engine?

[@knoxchen8256]

i doesnt work in eevee, right?

[@zZennaTV]

Song?

[@ranasamir]

I am unable to see it in Render view. It only shows an outline. I wonder if it has to do with the engine you are using? Or are you on Workbench?

[@dusty_wings]

enable surfaces?...

[@ranasamir]

@@dusty_wings I did look into that. Its already enabled. It would have been helpful if this tutorial showed the whole screen so we could see some settings on the right side.

[@stephensoto3642]

@@ranasamir I am having the same issue, were you able to figure it out?

[@ranasamir]

@@stephensoto3642 unfortunately not! I hope someone posts a solution. I might try to redo the whole thing and see if I missed a step but I doubt that.

[@mv_nyc]

Only works in Cycles unfortunately. With Eevee you’re going to have to instance the points with physical geometry, which makes the scene heavier to process

[@unijascha3005]

Danke jetzt hab ich einen steifen

[@mass-sequence]

Can’t get the color in

[@langdonthomasalger]

i couldn't either , but i tried literally using "col" in the store named attribute node and it worked

[@cokerson]

Doesn't work in EEVEE

[@LucienDeVivo]

Anyone wanting to work with multiple textures, you can bake it down to a single UVmap, found a great tutorial here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKrLqZmumK17a5Y. Great tutorial, thanks!
