This is the only channel that can get away with a long intro, simply because it’s just so good

[@oliverclarke200]

This man be like "very simple" , while i had to pause 500 times

[@CamObserver]

No doubt he is all over the place and frame by frame to figure out what he really is doing. It could have been easy.

[@icarbonised4655]

I swear to god this man uploads just show off his cool AF trailer ( it would be a shame to call it an intro)

[@bluewhalestudioblenderanim1132]

also light rays and lasers are only visable on a semi-solid-to-solid background . . . because light it's self is hard to see and altho many objects lit by a narrow beam of light Would Look REALY COOL it's not exactly what we think of as a laser

@Russell Kasen I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

show us how to make your old intro effect in blender.

[@marc-antoinedeke-mangeon3617]

I think if you want to make the intro of this video, you must use a boolean modifier, for the laser effect. And for the old intro, he subdivide his mesh and apply a build for my opinion. :)

[@animatorinprogress5793]

That clip of the planet being destroyed was the exact thing I was trying to create when I looked up how to make a laser in Blender.

[@swisscarmotiveshorts]

Yooo imma start learning that now

[@Iridesium]

Simple fx like this are my favorite!

[@NeerajLagwankar]

The amount of efforts put into the intro itself is amazing!

[@venerexate1841]

Yes, yes, many efforts. More efforts then I could possibly imagine efforting… I’m guessing 25 whole efforts on that intro.

Very very cool! Thank you. I've been looking for a video explaining how to make this kind of an effect for a laser in blender.

[@akmalsufi]

Always a big fan of your tutorials !

[@drunkenflyer100]

Could someone explain 3:35 - 4:09 part? After appling "scale" everyhting goes black.

[@TheAJP]

Could we get a tutorial on how to add blood splatter effects to our scene

[@experimentierer3909]

Do u want moving blood or just blood spatter at a wall cz for the second u can just use some blood png's and it looks pretty good

[@jrussell55565]

It would also be nice, since you add nodes so quickly and then change your mind seconds later, if when you are all done with the node set up to show a screen shot of all the nodes you use. I am trying to apply nodes to a cube that has been resized and since I did not create the exact object that you did, the results are not the same. But I do thank you for the tutorial...

[@ZKDVoid]

Yea the tutorial isn’t really that good

[@silencethequiet]

OMG! That intro! Yours are always the greatest!

[@Me-te8xq]

4:11 How come mine is a long rectangle instead of a cylinder? I'm on blender 2.93.

[@leodonlan2228]

you may need to replug the emission into surface and back into volume on the material output, seemed to need refreshing after I had used the wrangler preview

[@Me-te8xq]

@@leodonlan2228 Sadly I don't use blender anymore. But thanks for replying.

[@MancoBlanco]

Wow, I saw the thumbnail and thought about how to do it for 10 minutes after giving up and watching the tutorial

[@Illasera]

@Iridesium , Very good, missed opportunity for not using dynamic paint for burning effect and scorching heat [And even deforming the surface a bit by the laser] you could have used an empty with a target instead of a cone as well. Beside that, it was great.

[@technoendo]

So pumped for your intros!

[@3RDEYELOVE]

bro this intro is superrr dope💯💯💯💪🏾

[@redpug5042]

you just render that little thing in 3 seconds as if it were nothing while i'm over here spending a minute doing the same exact render :D

[@nightowledits5708]

This is so informative for a blender noob like me. I did the blackhole from the tutorial of yours... I showed it to my friends and and they said it looks like an omlet 😞

Would you believe me if I said that I come to these videos always for the intros more than the tutorial?

[@BenjaminThickett]

oh its okay I had to select the node first. great video by the way!

[@WrenchMonkey91]

cool tutorial and it's exactly what I need for a project, but it 's rough to follow along with. you say stuff like "turn THIS down" or "click this" really fast so we can't just listen, but then you also cut the footage before you actually do some of the stuff you say so I've gotta stop every few minutes and figure out what you referred to.

Hi all, @ 11:14 my sparks don't bounce on the plane; instead they fall through it. Everything before looks good. Tried several times from the beginning of the chapter. Additionally, I'm not seeing the sparks during render; just during playback. Any suggestions? THNX

You need to turn on collisions for the plane as well

It's easier to choose the "Shading" layout tab on the top, instead of dragging a new window in and selecting the "shade editor"!

yup you're right idk why all blender pros do that thing when both gives the same result :/ but still great tutorial

[@A_Simple_Zock]

Is there a more up-to-date version? I don't think the volumetric laser works in the current version of Blender, but I might have just messed something up idk.

[@FARMERDANNNNN]

Make sure you plug in the emission into the volume option on material output.

[@RaffoVFX]

Really cool! Useless to ask why exploding the world is returning to be mainstream 🤔

At 5:00, is it possible to change the cores color? Or do I have to use two objects, one being the core with one color and the outer being another color?

[@llYuki0okami]

your blue laser is more "blue" than in my blender, how can i make this? when i change color to darker its turn purple not more blue

[@benmartin5869]

Dang man, if you just showed what the absolute values of your cube were fo the volumetric bit it would work - but since your gradient texture is based on an absolute scale and you don't show those number I (and others) are finding it almost impossible to replicate.

i think u missed some steps because mine looks nothing like this. Especially where you add the cube in the "sparks" section is very difficult to follow exactly what you are doing.

By the way, if you are shift alt clicking a node and nothing happens, add the Node Wrangler plugin.

Not clear why the cylinder in cycles glows and this light is scattered by the square plane mesh - The glow is lost when you change form Eeve to cycles - maybe something you did too fast for my sight with the keyboard

How do I apply scale to the nod? Sorry I don't know the shortcut key

I mentioned briefly at the end of the video that you could use dynamic paint to burn the surface that gets hit by the laser. Look up some tutorials on dynamic paint. You can get some really cool effects with it.
