I've been experimenting with geonodes-based scattering tools creation for a while yet, just for in-house usage, and honestly I'm really impressed with Blender's instancing capabilities. The major downside is that despite having "Is Viewport" node it doesn't distinguish between rendered and normal view. It would be great to have optimized display in normal view and full detail in rendered, but I couldn't find any workaround yet.
@imeshhАй бұрын
Oh do you mean like rendering in viewport? Yeah that is a huge oversight i feel like. A lot of other render engines are able to do this
@jamescombridgeartАй бұрын
Set the object to display as bounds. Much lighter in viewport, but still renders
@AtoomikDznАй бұрын
Hiding the overlays is the way: Cycles doesn't count faces as the overlay does, so it's way faster to hide overlays and stay in Cycles viewport shading! Great video btw
@imeshhАй бұрын
Turning off overlays helps but the render preview is considerably faster. Actually in my test just now I can't get to 1.5m trees without turning on render preview

Wouldn't it be way easier and more apropriate with a simple particule system? I could be wrong but it seems that work with instances and doesn't blow up the viewport.
@imeshhАй бұрын
As far as i understand it, the old particle system is worse than a geometry nodes system and the particle systems are probably going to be replaced in future. For example Particle hair has been completely replaced with geometry nodes hair and for me the performance is night and day! I also find making it with a geonodes system I have far more control over absolutely everything in the system which is amazing. I also cannot remember being able to have anywhere near this many polygons using the traditional particle system but i should test :)

Thanks a lot for working this out. I know Mac setups aren't optimal but would you have any tips for reducing lag/crashing on Apple silicon setups? I have an M2 pro Macbook and it seems to get stressed quickly when increasing the count on tree models in both rendered and material preview.

For your question at minute 9:50: With a Math node set to Truncated Modulo, using the Index in the first socket and a value of 2 in the second socket, only every other row is affected. Ducky 3D demonstrates this very good in his video about the Index node.
@imeshhАй бұрын
I had tried using truncaded modulo, however it is an issue with finding the index specifically. I don't think it is finding the values for each row
@NilsLeideckАй бұрын
Is there a possibility to offer the Geometry Nodes in a Git(Hub) repository? I think that would help us all enormously to keep the geo nodes up to date and also to contribute adjustments via merge requests.

I still have no idea how this works. My large scale instanced forests with geoscatter kill blender at around 200k objects & 9m poly using alpha trees (2d planes). This is with 32gb ram and 12 gb vram (rtx 4080 laptop version). Nice work

But your Geo Nodes Setup is a Great Help for Scattering or Creating a Large Scene with limited Vram But the Big question here is can we actually render this as an Image or Animation with same limited Vram?

As always it so good, thank you man for your efforts 🙏 Can you answer where I can learn interior design in blender from very scratch till professional rendering? especially working with materials and lighting is my pain in blender Thank you for your answers 🙏
@sonicGD2006Ай бұрын
For this you must learn Blender and then use the skill in your profesional goal. Do you already know interior design? Then you should learn Blender... Blender is only a tool to apply your interior design knowledge. Regards!
@imeshhАй бұрын
Interior design I don't think there is much overlap in tutorials for both Blender and interior design. You may find more luck with learning Blender archviz and then interior design seperately and merging the two. Unless you're already into Interior Design, then you're saying it is specificially transfering that knowledge from interior design to Blender? I'd probably recommend doing a LOT of practice with product renders for the close up material work involved. Materials will be a huge part for you so any tutorials on that. Lighting is some of our tutorials and you should also find references and try to match them, and im sure there are many other good tutorials out there :) - wait sorry if i didnt answer your question I just woke up haha

Maybe is interesting to test/add a dymanic lod like this for reducing polycount, but using object info active camera: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpSVfHVuqa6Nl68 (this decimates with geonodes depending on the camera distance, but not sure if the process of decimate costs more that benefits)

1-33 - That's not true. Array modifier is instancing objects. They became unique after you apply array modifier, but you can link their data.
@imeshhАй бұрын
When you add an array modifier, you can see the face count of the scene increasing. This is not an instance and the performance of the scene is incredibly bad when trying to array even a slightly complex object. From the Blender docs: The Array modifier creates an array of copies of the base object. Specifically it says copies of the base object, not instances or duplicate linked or anything else
