Appreciate this video so much. I was scratching my head for hours wondering why the displacement I've baked looked dark and flat like it was just a normal map. Didn't know about the 3 options and that it is on Bump by default. Thank you very much.

[@RyanKingArt]

Glad it helped!

[@Grimstore]

You are a hardworking fella, and your work is definitely helping out the community. Keep that in mind and keep up the good work. Thank you !

[@RyanKingArt]

thank you very much!

[@nishilbhartiya]

Your procedural texture tutorials might be one of the best things for any blender user. Very helpful and flowing, easy to follow and most importantly easy to understand and learn the "why does this thing do that?". Love it!

[@RyanKingArt]

Glad it was helpful!

Excellent tutorial! Would love to see a geometry nodes teaching the basics and most important nodes, like you did with compositing. Keep up!

[@maciekbrzozowski8391]

I use blender mainly for 3d printing, as a replacement for cad programs, so this video isn't much help, but you have such an amazing teaching gift that I watch many of your videos with interest without scrolling. I wish I had such teachers in school ;)

[@mr.lunatic3157]

But for 3d printing organic models this is awesome..

[@tomcollins6989]

Damn. Your good. Good pace. Good info. Sounds small but it’s a game changer. Thank you sir.

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks for watching!

[@issolomissolom3589]

Your tutorials are just amazing Hopefully you can make more about geometry nodes 👍👍

[@RyanKingArt]

Yeah I'd like to make more Geometry node tutorials. Did you see the one I made on the alien orb?

[@TOjoe1strow]

will this apply to stls exported ? im trying to export a mesh with a woodgrain teexture

[@veryupstandinguy]

Hey,great video as always! i was just wondering if you can make a video on how to make models look detailed in the renderrer but not in the viewport if you get what i mean

[@sparktech4104]

Thank you!

Great 🙌

thanks!

[@pablog.511]

Hey bro a little question, when I apply the modifier with the adaptative subdivision it just dissappear all the subd and let my objet flat again, any suggestion???

[@barriejones1461]

Thank you for your excellent informative and easy to follow tutorials. Is it possible to convert a very detailed image such as a fractal to a mesh object using your displacement method as demonstrated in this video? I am using photoshop to convert a fractal to greyscale .png file but so far I haven't found a way to produce a reasonable mesh. My goal is to convert the mesh to .stl suitable for 3D printing. If displacement is not the right approach could you please suggest another blender strategy. Thank you.

[@scottanderson6309]

I am trying to do the same - Hoping to get from an image to creating a textured surface on selected faces of part.

[@mrdixioner]

I'm really looking forward to when they make support for displace in Eevee.

[@RyanKingArt]

I just released a video on how to use the displacement modifier, and that does work in eevee! : )

[@theaccout4458]

Nice

[@RyanKingArt]

thank you!

Thank you. If you can prepare adaptive displacement tutorial in a scene with UV mapped objects, it would be a very worthwhile tutorial. Example: House from rock, cultural heritage artifacts made of limestone, wooden inlaid works that are handicraft products.

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks for the idea!

[@Senkaii596]

CLOSE TO 100K

[@RyanKingArt]

yes very close! I only need like 15 more subscribers!

You should make 100k cake next video! I will watch from start to finish!

Congrats! Now we gotta see where the future will take us now because this is just the beggining. Also get ready for that silver play button to come in lol.

[@BlenderUnrealMaya-cx1mu]

Hi bro, im not seeing slot1, material.001 etc in my texture node editor !! can you pl guide me on how to see Material.001 in the texture node editor... (im using Blender ver 5.1)

[@channelname8623]

is it possible to randomize the mortar topography or make the pattern parallel to the bricks rather than perpendicular?

[@RyanKingArt]

Well that would depend on the image texture that your using.

[@mahdidaraei4185]

Thanks a lot for your tutorial. Today is the day that you are going to reach 100k subs. May I ask you, if you have any special tutorial for the milestone?

[@RyanKingArt]

Yes I should reach 100k today! I will be posting a 100K thank you video soon.

[@wilsemoldo800]

Hi, thanks for the tutorial. Here an issue that I'm trying to fix, the displacement works perfect in the render shader in 3d viewport, but is gone when I press f12 or just simply doesnt work properly, only happens with f12 render. Do you know what could be my error ? I have tried everything I saw in this tutorial and so many others without success. Maybe I miss something ? Thanks for your support and your time ! 🙏

[@CharlesBalbont]

I have the same problem sadly. Works perfectly in the viewport, but I get a lot of artifacts when I render with F12... can't figure out solution yet (I use Blender 4.1)

[@aalmutairi6604]

thank you for all tutorial you make I wech in the future you make a tutorial of archviz eevee interior and exterior for small house. real time render and walk navegation inside and around the small house.

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for the idea!

[@name3099]

Do i need to uv unwrap a mesh if i create procedural materials?

[@RyanKingArt]

no, you don't have to, you could use the object coordinates instead.

[@name3099]

@@RyanKingArt thank you

[@PhantomWondo]

Can you make a tutorial on how to create a Robot/Mech?

[@RyanKingArt]

I actually already have a tutorial on that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIjPiWVofqeHhtE

[@cekconi1773]

👍👍👍

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@slamm2808]

I see no displacement settings in the material section.... do you have to activate these?

[@RyanKingArt]

make sure your using the cycles render engine.

[@eviction.notice]

when I add the modifer and change to bump and displacment nothing happens to my plane.

[@RyanKingArt]

did you make sure to turn on the Displacement and Bump in the materials settings like I go over in the video? Also make sure your in Cycles render.

[@eviction.notice]

@@RyanKingArt yes I did, I’ve been using blender couple months, not a pro but I’m not that lost 🤣

[@DavidVanstone]

I'm new to blender and don't have the bump options in settings (blender 4)

[@RyanKingArt]

make sure your in cycles render engine

[@DavidVanstone]

@@RyanKingArt I am a complete beginner, I've no idea what you mean. All I need to do is add a leather 3d texture to an STL to 3d print, but bump only etc isn't there.

[@riotechmod]

There is guy who was using Displacement in EvE, but after beaking texture and plunin in all on replacement of nodes

[@RyanKingArt]

what do you mean by beaking texture?

[@riotechmod]

@@RyanKingArtit's baking 😅..

[@siddheshbhagat6485]

Cant see displacement and bump option under settings

[@RyanKingArt]

make sure you are using cycles render engine

I want the same job in Eevee (((

[@RyanKingArt]

I will soon be posting a tutorial on how to do this in Eevee with the displacement modifier.

[@andreiiaroslavtsev2556]

blender 4 dont have displacement in material setting

[@RyanKingArt]

yes it does. Make sure you're using the Cycles render engine. Its not there in Eevee.
