Octane Volume Displacement in Cinema 4D (Part 1 of 2)

In this video, I'll go through the techniques and tools to create a cool volume displacement effect in Cinema 4D. In part 2 I'll do a demo to recreate a piece similar to the one in the thumbnail.

Bro you're just an octane genius

[@13BeatKing]

Awesome peak into the thought process of how these images come to life!! Keep em coming!! 💯

[@midlet]

More to come!

[@13BeatKing]

Excellent! Can't wait!!

[@somniumwave]

Excellent tutorial man. Love your C4D layout setup too!

[@midlet]

Thanks! Glad you liked it. I originally came to C4D from Maya, so my layout has a bit of inspiration from there.

[@The4momspodcast]

Definitely need to try this out. Keep going 😊

[@chillbgaming]

Nice!!!

[@midlet]

Thanks!

[@bharat5194]

Very cool!

[@tiffanycasterline5037]

Wow, this is really cool!

[@pirmne]

Full of useful，thank u

[@midlet]

No problem! 😊

[@sean.sullivan]

Wow, great effect! you should make this material available somewhere! Patreon, gum road or something!

[@midlet]

That's a great idea! I’ll look into getting that set up.

[@taon]

Well done !

[@momentswithpye]

Great tips!

[@midlet]

Glad it was helpful!

when you put a noise and a multiply node the displacement pushes it into a direction, sometimes to the sides but I want it to displace it on all directions

[@midlet]

Think I showed it in the video but the way to think about it is like there’s a bounding box around the volume that clips in certain directions. To fix it add a little box or sphere to the displaced geometry to “expand the bounding box”. It’s in these videos somewhere so you can get a demonstration of what I’m talking about.

[@theconstructxyz]

@@midlet I'm not saying it is clipping, I'm saying the displacement has a direction in which it is affecting the object, pushing everything to the left and downwards in a diagonal when you increase the multiply value, no other nodes used besides the multiple and the noise

[@midlet]

@@theconstructxyz Hmm, I don't know of any way to change the direction of the displacement. I don't think that control is built in. The issue I ran into and found a workaround for was having one "flat" side of displacement. I get what you're saying though you want it to displace along normals evenly I suppose which does seem like the way it SHOULD work, but for some reason doesn't.

yeah well and what pc do you have? because mine exploded

[@midlet]

Oh no, RIP to your PC! 🙏🏽 but yes, mine is quite powerful.
