I forgot to link the energy conservation clip I used, sorry about that. You can find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nl7adaR-gM5srbs

Kindly change your youtube profile picture. Its not feel right. This is way i am not subscribing your channel because i have to see this profile picture again and again. When i will see your videos in youtube feed. Kindly change it to any thing good vibe. Thanks.

[@CGSTUDENT15]

oh really bro are u serious hahaha i dont think u have to care about that@@thegameplay3859

[@Epictacotime]

now if only i had finished renders to actually improve

[@SoggyMicrowaveNugget]

I know the feeling.

[@less_than_savory]

we're all here with you

[@Lrt.3d]

Best comment 😂

[@StraveTube]

Too real

[@RoboThePanda]

so many unfinished projects 😭

[@UrvinisM]

This is wrong. AgX is not a color space. One should not call it that. sRGB, AdobeRGB or P3 are color spaces. AgX is color transform that converts Blender's reference linear color space to sRGB color space(or whatever color space display device is set to).

[@DerekElliott]

Thanks for the eloquently spoken updates!

[@SouthernShotty]

Nice compliment coming from such a high quality channel

[@AnthonyRosbottom]

I've just subbed to Derek's channel because of your implied recommendation @@SouthernShotty :)

[@lulboiking5806]

wow blender is getting better and better so quickly its amazing, just like your awesome videos!!😊

[@RuiLionheart]

Awesome rundown of some really neat updates in Blender! Thanks! ✨️

[@Everything3dAnimation]

Woww I can't wait to try this version!

[@AnthonyRosbottom]

Great video! 'meshes' being a different data block than 'objects' is great and has been invaluable to me in the past when designing large game levels and the client needs changes to certain objects that have already been instanced and placed hundreds of times. This felt very natural to me as an ex-maya user as maya has a similar setup in that the object transform is the parent of the mesh. Though swapping meshes in maya is a few more mouse clicks.

[@NoTengoIdeaGuey]

Re: your mesh swapping technique - one thing I also like to do is put my various objects into different collections and then add an object with no mesh data, put a geonodes mod on that one, and then in the GN add a collection instance node >Realize instances>Join geometry, referring to that collection. Then if you want to make edits to that object you just tweak the objects in the collection and it will update in all the GN instanced objects. This is great because you can add modifiers to the instanced objects, which isn't really doable with normal collection instances since those are empty objects. It's also useful for when you come to a point where you need to "apply" the modifier stack on multiple objects and join them together to do further operations on them together. This allows you to do that, in essence, without actually applying the modifiers and keeping everything separate and procedural.

[@RenderRealmstudio]

This is awesome!

[@leafy_5]

So you’re saying I should definitely update my blender version 👍

[@repositorytutorial3d50]

wow! so many new features! but where is the transmission roughness input in the principled shader?

[@MichaelHickman3D]

We need the beard back! Though, I'm still waiting for ACEScg to come to blender.

[@SouthernShotty]

Hahaha I had to shave it for a Halloween costume

[@jeanclaudethedarklord6205]

that mesh swapping feature and the new principle bsdf is absolutely fucking awesome

[@RomboutVersluijs]

When this got introduced a couple weeks i was wondering. Does the switch also automatically adjust all texture nodes color produle inputs. I believe now with agx, all these setting on inages need to be different. Hope they did implement such a switch

[@Lrt.3d]

This makes me wonder if there will ever be something like Log or raw but for renders

[@muajin]

Would it be better to render in agx over high contrast?

[@vigneshs3631]

As I'm new to blender can you tell me how your screen has two front view both different content

[@Bitbiscuit]

Been watching your vids for a little while, overall like the cartoony look you use for your movie. What pc specs you would suggest to use blender easily but is budget.

[@SouthernShotty]

I have a video on building PCs with my recommendations

[@Bitbiscuit]

@@SouthernShotty ok thanks for the help

[@zxl7204]

I'm so glad the team at blender care for their product and update their product frequently even though it's free. Some devs I unfortunately cannot say the same for.

[@nexpro6985]

Thanks for the vid. Btw 5:36 Anisotropic = an-iso-tropic not anis-tropic.

[@bawanggoreng2313]

I wonder is it a good news for amd gpu users as well. Im an amd gpu, needs to render in Unreal Engine cuz in Blender it is so lag.

[@Felhesznelenev]

I consider to get that Dynamic VFX Pack. I just don't know what is the difference between the free version, the 10$ version and the 49$ version. I assume in free version you don't have many options with the effects, in the 10$ version you get half of the customization? And in the 49$ you get the full customization? I'm confused.

[@SouthernShotty]

Hi, I list the difference in the description under the variations on the right :)

[@HistoryOnPaper]

There’s a 4.0 now I’ve been on 3.5 for ages now

[@badb33]

cool

[@Dartr]

You could swap meshes previosly, i've seen this in 2.9 already

[@imleozx2808]

i was waiting for aces cg to be official blender colourspace

[@fadhil4008]

They also considered using aces but decided not to for some reason. I believe there's a video explaining that somewhere on KZbin

[@SouthernShotty]

You can switch your view to adapt the color flow for aces as well

[@RomboutVersluijs]

Perhaps you should have explained it like this; Instead of doing repetitive work on ovject level, so for instance adding modififers and tye animation. You do it once and and use mesh data to swap it fast. This ie basically also how lodify works

[@RomboutVersluijs]

If you want to take it a step further. You could add some python and use code to swap it for you aromatically l. This is handy for make say video credits and what not. You can use day video markers to switch out the mesh data

[@pxrposewithnopurpose5801]

i tried to learn maya. after learning blender i cant use anything. its like once you black you never go back in this case its blender

[@sidekick3rida]

They should've made ACES standard

[@JohnSlaughterND]

Did I miss the sale? Or is the current price the sale price?

[@SouthernShotty]

A sale ended. Likely go on sale again for Black Friday

[@JohnSlaughterND]

@@SouthernShotty All good. Still worth it at that price.

[@MBMEMDDD]

Filmic may be better in ways I'll never understand but my lizard brain tells me standard looks better so here's hoping this AgX is good.

[@cactus22minus1]

Think of it like RAW photos if you’re somewhat familiar with photography. Filmic gives you more information to work with even if it doesn’t look as good to your eye straight out of the camera (or render, in this case). You can then do your own post processing, increase the contrast etc, but in the end you still habe a better end result with more control.

[@davestomper3428]

I just want blender to get the vertex and texture painter to finally compete with substance

[@quarryspanish]

I see you downloaded blender 4.0 but the file your beard went missing

[@agonhazrollaj9642]

is it just me or he looks like Andrew Kramer from COPILOT , just a bit fatter :D :P and hes talented to like u :D

[@MetalGearMk3]

AgX seems to be too desaturated in colors.

[@bobsteven2363]

AgX is more washed out in general which does give you more room to edit the look and feel in the compositor of your choice. You could even do it live on blender itself. There are also multiple AgX presets that come stock with blender that have far more contrast and saturation. The key goal of AgX is to retain as much detail as possible which you can later on remove if you want. Also, its way harder to add detail to an image that lacks it so its better to go the AgX way.

[@metaltrooper8947]

No beard Jump Scare

[@SouthernShotty]

😂

[@gamechannel1271]

Why does every one of these channels have a strong colorful side light on their face? It looks goofy af.

[@monsterkone2th2me]

E

[@zaidkiwan5168]

Did bro gain a bit of fat? He looks a bit different

[@Puckerization]

Please stop calling AGX a Color Space....it is ColorTransform...BIG DIFFERENCE!

[@thegameplay3859]
