Blender Tutorial - Fire Simulation With Geometry Nodes

[@BlenderMadeEasy]

Should I make a fluid simulation and geometry node tutorial next? Edit: I forgot to mention you need to be in 3.0 not 2.93. You won't be able to add the geometry nodes to the volume if you don't use 3.0. Also thanks again to Skillshare for sponsoring the video!

Yessss plssssssss

[@Sigmamagic15]

Yes , fluid stimulation next 👍

[@iconiq263]

Is it possible to have something like a waterfall?

[@danielcalin6060]

Yesss, it would be very interesting

[@bossk8957]

Yes! Doing some more cool stuff with the colors could be interesting

[@bossk8957]

This looks so cool! I had no idea this was possible, and I’ll definitely take inspiration from this!

[@MrCheebs]

This is awesome!

When i try to put the "Volume to mesh" node my program is force closing. Any advice?

[@Botix4]

Sadly, I have the same issue. So, someone with solution?

[@nicerdude6420]

@@Botix4 For this tutorial i would recommend using Blender 2.93. So, after you imported OpenVDB, you have to use a cube to add the volume to mesh. That means, you have to add a cube to the scene, add the 'volume to mesh' modifier in the modifier panel on the cube and then in the 'object' you have to select 'fluid_data_0001'. Drag the threshhold down to 0.001 and set the name to 'flame'. Now you can follow along with the tutorial without using the Volume to Mesh geometry node. :)

@@nicerdude6420 Thanks, This helped me solve my crashing for 3.4.1

[@Mr_Steve3D]

That node is not in 3.3, any work around for the flame value on density>?

[@KatlinSchirmer]

Love these Tutorial thanks a lot dear.

[@soicowboy1451]

I use blender 3.0 and it crashes while I add volume to mesh node, I downloaded 2.93 and added it there, then I cannot find pount instance and attribute separate nodes. If I try to do the same in 2.93, the nodes are there but simulation itself doesnt work. So the tutorial is unrepeatable

[@giuseppe2889]

crashes me too

[@pikachufan25]

Noice a Lava Material even if its use for fire it looks cool as lava xD

[@Rika34369]

Love these tuts Thx a lot

[@BlenderMadeEasy]

Glad to hear!

[@uzaykisi1863]

another perfect tutorial thank you

[@mayhemcrue4742]

For some reason when I'm in geometry nodes, I don't have "point instance" , is there a preference I don't have selected?

[@D3LB0Y]

it would be cool if you could make the guys in the elements movie aka the fire girl

[@DuyNguyen-qp6uh]

I love your tutorial

[@JonDigitalTV]

Please update this as Blender 3.5 crashes when adding the volume to mesh

[@vivaansuri1000]

Pls make a video on how to make a low poly explosion in blender

[@BlenderMadeEasy]

Oh I like that idea! I will look into that!

[@muneer4k]

Brilliant I learn alot

[@ramenpapi6243]

hey so when i open the geometry node tab and add the volume, my blender just instantly crashes, i have decent enough parts to where i didnt think it would be a problem...got a solution?

[@mrcrazypants4530]

@@nicerdude6420you said "set the name to flame" what did you mean? grid name? or modifier name? if i change grid name , blender says "cant find flame grid" and nothing happens

[@Schxndr]

This is sick, it looks digital

[@DuyNguyen-qp6uh]

it's very nice

[@sakana820]

Make a tutorial on how to delete the default cube like that ;>

[@lostcrusader8053]

That could take hours upon hours on how to do that.

awesome! :)

5:56 Geometry node is not working on my fluid_data Please help

[@dannybouchard4140]

same for me. new geometry node is greyed out even when I have the fluid.data selected. Using Blender 2.92 and 2.93.

[@lordvader3d]

Use version 3.0.0

[@akashpatil4992]

Tutorial for deleting default cube plz

[@frostyshock643]

DISCLAIMER: The tutorial doesn't work for blender 2.92, to be specific, u can't add a new geometry node as the option gets greyed out.

[@pigpig1328]

same

[@BlenderMadeEasy]

Yes I forgot to mention that you need to use 3.0 to add geo nodes to the volume.

[@nekok4191]

I think with 2.92 there's a workaround. Instead of adding GeoNodes to a volume, first you convert the volume to mesh using Volume To Mesh modifier on any geometry (default cube will do). Then you do geometry nodes and do everything the same except for the first VolumeToMesh node that's only available in 3.0

[@monarchblack3004]

Much better said than in the comments below. I am using 3.3.1 and this is still necessary, to prevent crashing.

[@blenderpete]

Besides the theoretical possibility of being able to import vdb to geometry nodes, why should I do it? What are the possibilities that I have with GN that I can’t achieve by importing vdb without GN?

[@DQsta]

amazing

[@chavis2876]

I have a question, when I go to add the 'volume to mesh' node in the geometry node (Blender 3.0), the 'density' attribute isn't there to adjust it just says threshold and adaptivity, but I see it in your video. Any suggestions?

[@mayhemcrue4742]

I'm having the same issue actually

[@chavis2876]

I found a solution. After you bake the fire and the vdb files are created, create a fluid data object, importing all the vdb files you created for each frame. Then create a cube mesh and use the volume to mesh modifier on the cube, using the fluid data object as your target. After that modifier, you can use geometry nodes on the cube. You can change the GRID NAME in the volume-to-mesh modifier to different things like he says in the video

[@mayhemcrue4742]

@@chavis2876 Thank you for replying! I'm sort of new to blender; what is a fluid data object, and how would I create it?

[@chavis2876]

In object mode you can use shift+a to add a volume -> import openvdb and grab your vbd files

[@mayhemcrue4742]

@@chavis2876 I misunderstood the terminology, and I am appreciative of you for helping! I understand now. Thank you!

[@shakaama]

can i export it to ue4?

[@McHaven07]

unfortunately, my blender crashes everytime i try to add the geo node. which is fair, i can't even get regular fire to actually appear in the scene, dunno why i thot this would be any different! wah! DX why do i suck so hard at this??

[@roccoforte2921]

once I import the data and try to open the geometry node it wont let me open nodes the "new" button is inactive even with the box selected

[@roccoforte2921]

nevermind i was in 2.93 i switched to 3.0

[@unkow999]

thx!!!!!!!!

[@eternative2942]

I can't select new in the geometry node why ???

[@BlenderMadeEasy]

Check the pinned comment.

[@babydriverx]

When I type #frame/500 it default to 0.000000

[@amoghagrawal1]

When you move through the timeline, the value would change and so would the animation work

[@DuyNguyen-qp6uh]

um its not working

[@unkow999]

create a geometry node, the program turns off.

[@KIFDRAKON]

the fucking button is not active. I've tried all the modes. but a new bunch of geometric mods is not added, that's all. so I couldn't appreciate your lesson. But I would like to know what this fucking reason could be.
