BUMP vs. GLOSSY: How To Completely Control Your Materials | All 3D Software

Yo guys, this time on ‪@RenderRam‬ , I'm covering BUMP VS. GLOSSY, and why it's important to know when to use each one! This rule applies to most 3d softwares and rendering engines. Check it out!

This video is a holy grail for anyone who is just starting out in 3d texturing

[@megomad]

by far one of the best and clear tuts for fstorm

[@krzysztofbogdanowicz4543]

I am impressed by wood material. Great explanation !

[@messiah001]

Wow! You covered such a complex topic so easily 🤯🤯🤯 You sir are a Wizard!

[@sociocynic]

Fantastic!! very well explained, shed light on something so damn important. Although I am a hardcore Vray user I find it very useful. Keep on posting such knowledgeable stuff and thank you!!

[@slick3d392]

Works because what defines any surface in reality is the roughness. When you use the bump, you are defining the level of roughness without using the glossiness ou roughness property of the shader, though the bump is much more render expensive. A trick to render the bump faster, is to put the bump in a gradient and use a dot product as an input taking the camera as reference. In doing so, the bump only appears in the geometry facing the camera, speeding up the render time.

So Amazing tutorial! Please keep it going

[@abhisheksakpal484]

Simple but so effective! Nice one keep em coming bro!

[@aphaits]

Very well illustrated and clearly explained demonstration of something foundational in material creation. Keep it up man, I love your videos.

[@Vincentvisuals]

Amazing tricks. Keep up!

[@henrique-3d]

Thank you very much for your tips RenderRam!

[@henrique-3d]

I was so lost trying to always focus on the roughness first.

[@RenderRam]

No, thank YOU! 💪🏻

[@Vizeral]

Great tut!

[@Someone-jy7ch]

wow, thank you, great tutorials!

[@MochaccinoAndGames]

I'm learning fstorm and watching some of your videos to understand better, I'm making a scene to learn materials and I tested this glossy bump technique on a wall, it was very good, but when I changed cameras it was totally different, do you recommend using this when it would be a product render, just a studio or how to do it? Hug from Brazil ! And thanks for all vídeos, its a treasure!

[@carlospueblaherrero7988]

Really nice video!

[@shahulfreakhunter6109]

Excellent tutorial bro. Need more material tuts .

[@alpherbethe]

Amazing tutorial! Thanks a ton!

[@Arikiatrukido]

Nice scene

[@btconline4114]

I like your vids here. can you make a video on how to creat bumb, normal, displacement from material and when to use them and to generate seamless texture as well. thanks and more power!

[@thecuckoocook]

Dude, that thumbnail though 🤣🤣🤣 LOLOL

[@L30nHbl]

thanks alot! would love to see more Material Tutorial Videos. Could you show us how to make wood look realistic on a building far away .... where the texture is quiet visible in the distance. It alway looks like a color not like wood material :-(

[@RenderRam]

Huuu that’s a VERY nice question! Far away objects have a bit different logic how they appear in render, will see to make a video about that definitely!

[@L30nHbl]

@@RenderRam that would be great. In general I find wood a difficult task to recreate. Where you get your textures from?

[@RenderRam]

@@L30nHbl this texture is part of Arroway wood texture pack, they have large surface textures with 20k resolution

[@L30nHbl]

@@RenderRam ok great thanks! do they work in the far distance as well?

[@RenderRam]

@@L30nHbl textures are 240x240cm, so they will have better performance when viewing from larger distance

[@Challenging_Reality]

Very nice video, thanks for the tips. What video card are u using, the interactive is pretty fast :D

[@RenderRam]

Thanks! I’m using a single Nvidia RTX 3090

[@g3d894]

Hi, congratulations and thanks for your videos! I have some questions: 1. At 3:52" what is your Falloff map setting? Is it default? 2. At 5:40" I would like to know which wood number Arroway used and how you set each ColorCorrect map to Difuse/Reflection/Refraction and Bump? Thank you again!

Hi G3D, please send an e-mail to [e-mail], and I'll send screenshots
