How To Make Crazy Renders With Easy Geometry Nodes

[@explosionimplosion4679]

At 8:53, blender uses radians, which means a full turn is 360deg = 2π ≈ 6.28. This means that to snap to the nearest sixth of a rotation you need 6.28/6 ≈ 1.047, you stumbled upon 2π/3 which is about 2.094

[@maxhayart]

Thank you 🙌

[@deviantvision4995]

@@maxhayart and I think you can type “2 pi/6” in the sliders as well

[@stormycatmink]

@@deviantvision4995 You can even get simpler! 'tau' is defined as a full circle in radians, so you could go 'tau/6' tooo.

[@ChrisTay229]

Could you not also just convert the unit into radians and go from there?

Yes to all

I can hear the excitement in your voice, that’s what being a true artist is about being open minded and keeping things simple. I know my way around blender but it was hard for me to even get a foundation sometimes. Cool video 🔥

[@janferber]

This is the kind of tutorial we need. Just an inspirational idea where you can start from and go crazy. Love it

[@jamaglaqui3912]

Hi max and thanks for the cool tutorial. I am still somewhat a blender beginner and I think it would be cool if you display the keys while you're doing stuff in blender. It would really help beginners to see what the tutor is doing and how they're doing it. I know some people do it with step-by-step tutorials but it would also help with tutorials like this. Thank you!

Yeah you just need to download an add on for that or an app

i love your tutorials, quick, simple, easy to follow, and well spoken. would you consider activating the key-input display that shows what button(s) are being pressed? i'm still new and don't know all the shortcuts quite yet - like for creating cuts in the meshes. great video again

[@Jordbein]

bruh they are so hard to follow he doesnt even show how to unwrap or do any of that shit omgg im getting so angry

[@nathanowens7019]

@@Jordbein after watching this video I went and just learned shortcuts and tried applying them to a very basic scene. coming back, it's a lot easier to follow after having more experience. I'd say his stuff is great as it compresses what someone else could explain in 30 minutes down to 10 minutes. wish he would show or explain the key-presses though

Hey. Thanks for the tutorial. It was a blast to follow through! One thing though, how do I convert the random columns I've made into a permanent mesh? I want to be able to export the model I've made, but it only exports the four base columns that I use for my random generator.

Can you make a video on how you make your water ? I've been trying to make some good water for a while now but it always turns out to be kinda weird.

[@marlonmartires4927]

Yes please

[@Basiin]

at 12.20 you can see his water material, a musgrave texture and a bump node into normal

[@srijana6016]

nope at first you can notice he had mix shaders at that object .so it wont be water shader nodes

[@YakovlevArt]

@@srijana6016 yeah it's the Musgrave into the bsdf that goes into volume and then something else w the mix shader that goes into surface. It's an asset so there's definitely more to it. He's probably gonna sell it or make a video about it sooner or later.

Anyone know how to get that small rendered view window that Max has on the right side of his screen? I can't find any tutorials online to get it. Thanks!

[@callmetyco1879]

It might be a plugin but what I did was: Click on the camera > click viewport display dropdown > make sure 'passepartout' is checked and turn the value to 1. You can then right click the top menu, hit 'show header'. IDK how to remove the axis on the top right for only the window though. Its not exactly the same but does help a little bit

[@RetroPlus]

Simple but genius, these are top notch tips

[@tanksear]

Thanks for the great tutorial! Have you gone through your startup file anywhere? I'd be interested to see what default camera/world settings you're using.

[@DevonD.B]

Oh cool, the user library feature actually properly works now? I remember checking it out on 3.0 but it had huge amounts of problems when i tested it. Really nice water you've got there. Is it public at all?

at 2:31 im getting the same result the inset faces in land scape how did you make them in portrait? i have been stuck at that :p

[@captaincoreylewis]

I am days new to Blender and was having the same issue as well! Turns out that as you modify an original object, the Scale values eventually are altered and can lead to awkward behavior. Max showed a quick glimpse of the Apply window but I wasn't quite sure what he did with it, why he pulled it up, or even how... Till now. To fix this, first, I suggest you take note of your object's Scale values in the right sidebar Transform window when the "Item" tab is active (Shortcut "N" to toggle visibility). This way you can see the before/after values. To reset an object's Scale values, while in Object Mode, select object > CTRL/CMD + A > choose "Scale" in the Apply window. And voilà!!!! You have reset your Scale values and now the Inset tool in Edit mode should work as intended. I'm not quite sure if this neat trick has its tradeoffs but so far, it's working for me. I like when issues like this happen because then you get to learn valuable tips to fix them. Keep Blendering Sankalp!!! 😁

How do you set up a render preview on your bottom right coner?

[@ItsJessEdits]

when im at the geometry nodes portion of the video, and I try connecting my collection as the instance in the 'instance to points' node, it adds more of my structures to the collection area, not to the spot where the plane is. Any idea why? The plan isn't in that collection, so i'm a little confused. And all scales/transforms are applied.

[@kirkanos771]

"instance on points" is different than "instance to points".

[@AWetPanda]

How would we make water like that though

[@SkrapProduction]

8:50 that value you are adjusting in the snap node is referring to radians most likely. Since 2 radians is 360 degrees and the hexs looked perfectly orthogonal with that.

[@CamSpaghett]

I’m trying to make large scale basalt columns and here you’ve made similar but they merge into eachother

[@IThinkItsMe]

I got that sussed. Make your instances/Density really low such as 0.2 then in edit mode scale up the emitter plane. :-)
