So I wasn’t aware this was also a 2.83 feature, I went straight from 2.82 to 2.9 so I assumed it was in 2.9 either way I hope you guys enjoy the tutorial

[@aguytimo]

Np dude

[@itmightbesean]

Edit the title?

[@spaderkungskuk]

I was just about to add that comment. Still great tutorial.

[@norton9632]

don't worry dude it's okay) you make cool tutorials, they helped me a lot when I was a complete beginner so thank you!

[@saftschinken2353]

I noticed it last time I made something with the Noise. I love it :D

[@groundbowl6670]

Hey when I first started using nodes I ACCIDENTALLY created wood

Im pretty sure the roughness slider was introduced in blender 2.83

[@ramanrendersrandomly]

2.90 is like a testing box for 2.83. Any feature updates you see in 2.90 will be added to 2.83.x within the next few days/ weeks.

[@basiliotornado]

@@ramanrendersrandomly well i got 2.83 when it came out, pretty sure i have it

[@deltaray3]

@@ramanrendersrandomly I checked and it's been there since at least 2.83.0.

[@ramanrendersrandomly]

@@deltaray3 Not saying that it isn't part of 2.83.0. I'm just stating a point. Also, I'm in love with your profile pic.

Yeah I'm using 2.83.3 and I have these options

Ahh some nice morning wood to work with in blender.

[@TheLegend-mb8wc]

well it certainly beats going around the internet searching for the right resolution of wood texture images XD. Also thanks for this amazing tip. didn't know about it yet :)

[@Racc00nR1ck]

Ducky: genuinely trying to help users create cool textures in Blender. Archer: “Uh, phrasing!”

[@Zuneku13]

A much nicer way is using the wave feature and using circular with roughness, detail, scaling and distortion. I usually also scale the Z axis down on the mapping know to stretch it out to make the grains longer.

[@tophinski]

Hey Ducky, such a helpful video. Would you maybe consider doing this same type of video for some other common materials like metal, concrete, bricks, carpet, etc? I know that may be a big ask but this is just so useful to the little guys that don't have all the resources and software like the big dogs in the industry. Keep up the great work my man.

[@RetroPlus]

As a wood lover, this pleases me greatly

[@SpaceShrimp]

You should use distance instead of strength in the bump node, as Strength clamps the color range and you lose information :)

[@FriendshipMech]

Very interesting, thanks for the tip! Though in this particular case since the noise node outputs a value range between 0 and 1 I would think there would not be any information being lost by the clamp?

[@user-ir2fu4cx6p]

I connect it to the height and never had issue

[@peterh8253]

As somewhat of a beginner, I found this tutorial simple, easy to follow and straight to the point. I was amazed how good my first trial effort turned out. A bit of tweaking and experimentation here and there with various settings and I'm sure my results will be even more realistic. Adding clearcoat and messing with the roughness gives a nice finish to timber furniture, floors etc.

[@peterh8253]

By messing about with exactly the same node set-up I have figured out how to create some pretty realistic rock textures. Glad I watched this video.

[@porker5749]

There's a first time foe everything! In this case I was able to follow the whole video without anything going totally sideways! Any Ducky3D scifi type videos I've tried before I usually only get to about 1 minute and thigs go south, so thanks for creating one even I can follow!!

Couldn't follow the tutorial. When I opened up blender there was a cube and you never told me what to do with it.

are you serious

[@Tom-ef1mz]

The latest 2.83 wave node also makes a nice variety of wood banding effects

[@Pronobozo]

add a musgrave to the noise scale and you can get a knurled wood.

[@guyeveryonehates5403]

Perfect.... I’ve been waiting for this ever since the livestream yesterday!

Everyone's been talking about this famous livestream. Where can I watch it?

[@captozone]

I'm a novice to all of this and, your tutorial taught me nicely. Thank you for the information it was very helpful.

[@jeffkirchoff14]

Displacement Node + Cycles would Boost The Realism

[@user-ir2fu4cx6p]

Check this out I was barley trying i.ibb.co/c3pKPc7/blendermagic.png .

[@Linkario86]

Yeah but displacement is expensive because you need to subdivide a lot to make it work well. I mean if you got the machine, the renderfarm and performance isn't an issue, go ahead

[@jeffkirchoff14]

@@Linkario86 pal I've got rtx 2080 so, no issue absolutely.

[@Linkario86]

@@jeffkirchoff14 it's increasing rendertime regardless. It decreases any performance regardless. Yeah the 2080 is surely fast, but it doesn't change the fact that displacement is much more expensive than normal maps. You don't want displacement for Game assets for example

[@jeffkirchoff14]

@@Linkario86 yea Minecraft gamers hate displacement lol XD

[@Zachucks]

This was so easy to follow, and you can make some really nice wood materials by playing with the sliders and colors. Thanks! I'm a huge fan of wood as a material, and being able to make my own wood makes a world of a difference in picking the right texture and color. Well done!

[@micmacha]

I was pretty skeptical right up until you shrank in Y and added bump mapping. That is now some very convincing looking wood. Thanks.

[@pqahatta]

thanks to you! i need to submit my assignment within this 5 days and your tutorial really helps !!!!

[@arkaprasungupta2045]

Hello, I loved this tutorial and have been using it for doing sample renders for my projects. I would however like to add something to it. I have discovered that adding a voronoi texture in between the noise texture and the bump makes the darker wood grains pop better and also applies a slight texture over the darker grains which improves the overall visual quality. All in all it was a much needed good and short tutorial.

[@Catmandude]

WOW. Awesome transfer of knowledge my man. Many thanks. Also note: If you mess up like I did and connect the wrong node, hold CNTL+RM and drag to "cut" the node attachmemt.

[@Bernandez4139]

Oh my GOD that's easy! Great tutorial!

[@SshadowPL]

This is exactly what I needed for my project, some simple tweaks and I' ve got great looking wood, thank you very much :)

[@petertobisch884]

Thanks so many times! Not only thanks to Blender (my version 3.3.1) - also MANY thanks to you! I found some other tutorials for "procedural wood" - but yours is the easiest and fastest to implement! Thanks also for the tip for the adobe color tables! brilliant! :-) I'll subscribe to your channel and keep lokoing forward (as a Blender-Newbie) for the upcoming lessons!

[@roberthunter6122]

Mapping... New thing learned! Thank you so much for this!~

[@KayjayX0]

u are the number one in explaning thank you

[@blenderify4508]

The easiest wood making video. Now you don't need an axe to cut Trees! All thanks to Ducky

[@Nuudom]

Man oh man ducky, so many procedual materials I have learned from you. Thanks a ton! Just as a quick tip, type "ramp" when searching for color ramp, so you don't get that vertex color node accidentally. Nothing much, but as a quick typist (or impatient one) it is nice.

[@icemanff23]

Thanks a bunch i now got a grasp at how to make realistic wood texture

[@rustydust8648]

all my hopes returned thank you

[@ohmj8597]

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks

[@rockaway0beach]

This is amazing, i spent more time fixing the cylinder than working the nodes,and it is super easy to twitch. Thank you

Yep, this just earned a sub. Detailed, quick, and easy.

EEEEExcellent ! I really have to work on procedural material. It seems to bee so powerfull ! I really fell so noob when i see videos like this. Thank you.

[@Linkario86]

Good enough for me. I love those texture nodes so I don't have to overload my PC with textures. Whatever these basic Nodes can do for me I do with them. Usualy works any kind of Material, unless it's a pattern you find on bedsheet covers, curtains or carpets and stuff.

Great tutorial. This is a nice process. I used Maya for years. It has a preconfigured procedural wood shader that is 10x more difficult to achieve anything close to this.

Thanks for sharing!! Great work!!

[@mattwandcow]

[@ozon89]

Before you change the mapping, it looked like briar, or olive wood texture. with some adjustments and bumps, it's a nice tool for deformed trunks and roots i guess.

[@dedungas2130]

What a great idea! Thank you for sharing, saved me a lot of time!!!!

[@goblinboy1830]

This helps so much! It's so quick and easy, thank you so much

[@amurizon]

The shortcut keys didn't work for me, but this tutorial still taught me a ton, and being forced to manually look through all the Node options to find the ones you used in the video was really enlightening. My funky cacodemon-esque sculpting exercise now looks like it's made of poop-colored concrete, haha. Not quite the nice wood texture you had, but way more progress than I would've managed on my own. Thanks!
