It's not just usability thing, this is a completely different way that blender is handling the physics of light. You can see this more in metal materials.

[@ytskt]

Can elaborate it a bit more?

[@unknownclint1740]

I want to know more as well

[@Misteryo2118]

energy conservation

[@gabrielmoro3d]

Awesome! Blender 4.0 will be huge. Tip for next video, try to disable the outline selected objects. :P Thanks for making these always.

[@cyrusjameskhan]

Excited for the cleanup BSDF ✨

[@2011manbeast]

This is outstanding

[@raw_pc]

Can't wait for the official release

[@Nacreous01]

the noise texture has also been slightly reworked from what i can see

[@repositorytutorial3d50]

cool, but where's the transmission roughness?

[@user-hv5qu7kz1m]

thank you very much!

[@sho3d]

They replicated Arnold's standard surface material

[@joeboulden7042]

I am also wondering about backward compatibility with my shader library. Otherwise this looks very promising.

[@Prajwal____]

Has the shadow bug fixed, so that we can get smooth shadows for toon type rendering?

[@trauma2980]

Hope all the shaders in my library will adapt automatically to the 4.0 😅

[@vukmijatovic]

Same

[@updnup]

None of mine did lol 🙃

[@PeterHertel]

This is for both eevee and cycles?

[@TheSteveTheDragon]

I wonder if there's a speed difference.

[@AbyssalSoda]

Yeah there's a reason I'm sticking with 3.5 series, resin materials no longer exist in this new version. No amount of toying with the bsdf subsurface as they have it outlined can achieve the right look

[@user-fe8cp1wu7g]

But how the specular works now?

[@xoaddy1]

why do i only see the principled volumen??

[@waelsahly30]

nice

[@boom_fish_blocky]

Gosh, now that I have to get used to the new UI lol.

[@BoomTuberSixtySix]

Has energy conservation or fresnel ior been addressed?

[@xanzuls]

yes

[@Misteryo2118]

yes

[@lisaragunarathna7834]

Has anyone else had trouble with this Blender newest versions 4.0 beta and 4.1.0 - Alpha?. I can't get them to work at all; they keep closing unexpectedly whenever I open it.

[@maxrinehart4177]

Probably you hit a bug.

[@lisaragunarathna7834]

​@@maxrinehart4177 This error appeared when I run blender factory startup.cmd

[@lisaragunarathna7834]

ERROR (gpu.shader): draw_command_generate Linking: | Out of resource error.

[@zedeon6299]

Have u tried clean install without importing old blender settings

[@lemguins7031]

You accidentally labelled 'Coats' as 'codes' in your video chapters titles.

[@DrakeHurley]

Genuinely hate this change, given it's seemingly impossible to lower the specular the same way that was possible in pre-4.0

[@Bitcoin_Baron]

They ruined it by removing transmission roughness, now you straight up can't make transparent water or glass.

[@hameddesign70]

imma stick to 3.6 , they have messed up everything

[@drjian6852]

It's still in beta

[@sebbosebbo9794]

yeah thats why 4.O...I think.. new ground breaking stuff ....not always compatible to 3.6.4. anymore..
