I love procedural materials so much, I'm basically recreating the Genesis sequence from Wrath of Khan for a music video right now, and I'm using this in Eevee to have the Earth start as a lava planet. Thanks so much!

very good teacher

[@RyanKingArt]

Thank you! 😃

[@IzDavies]

Can I ask what differences does it make adding subdivisions to the shape from the menu after you add it vs through the subsurf modifier?

[@WibleWobble]

you should do some house materials, like stucco or painted wall with the little drywall blobs

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks for the ideas 👍‍

[@muxecoid]

When you need to choose between affected and unaffected region a math node with greater than could work. Multiplied by the original. If needed. I feel it expresses the intent better, than a ramp.

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for the feedback 👍‍

how can i change the camera orientation (the triangle on top of the camera) ? :( or just get the camera view as clean as urs. im already in the setup LOL

I'm looking to make a 3D printed Lava Rock, can this texture be used for a final model export as an STL for 3D printing or is it strictly visual?

For those who thinking that displacement is not working just switch to the rendered view its working there

[@RyanKingArt]

yes, the displacement only works in the rendered mode, not material preview. 👍‍

Would. be cool if you follow this up with a version that allows the lava to animate and flow.

ahh yeah that would be cool!

ok thanks!

[@rlhugh]

Could do with an explanation of the last part, with the glow, please.

[@darkshiro7226]

Were you able to solve this problem? I'm stuck here too

[@darkshiro7226]

I found my solution. To make your project glow properly after adding the "glare" effect in compositing, try this approach in the LAVA shading: Connect a Color Ramp node to the BSDF node (color to color) and set the emission strength to a value between 5 and 10. This should resolve the issue and make your glow effect work correctly. I had previously connected Alpha to the strength, which is why it didn't work :D

[@timfriese7410]

hey, really great video(am using this for a school project) but I have one problem, the displacement doesn't work at all, at first I thought it was because I wasn't in cycles but after I changed that it still didn't work, any ideas?

[@Fa1seP0sitive]

I was having the same issue and just now realize that it only seems to displace when in render view instead of in material preview. It shows correctly in render view, in render, and in the material preview in the materials menu.

[@funnycrappycomics2314]

amazing ryan as always , the process for baking this would be the same no special steps for them?

[@RyanKingArt]

I don't think so, however, you might want to bake a displacement map.

[@funnycrappycomics2314]

@@RyanKingArt oh ok, I dont see the option displacement in baking in blender 3,2 does it have a specific name, thank you for always answering my friend

[@funnycrappycomics2314]

@@RyanKingArt also when i bake the color it comes out all dark. Any thoughts?

[@thai_le_foto]

Hi, I'm incredibly confused how mine is not looking remotely close to yours with the voronoi texture part. in 4.0, adding the color ramp after the voronoi texture, it only reveals the black "rock" spots as the noise lines, so it looks completely unrealistic. Yours is showing like rock filled chunks, mine is only showing black outlines, not filling in any gaps like that. No matter where the color ramp setting is. So the final result is not revealing any rocks at all, it is just showing a ton of those barely distorted triangles from the voronoi......I just deleted all that and re did it again and same result, it is not doing any reveal, when connecting voronoi texture distance to mix shader fac, it does not do what yours does and do nothing, it in fact shows the voronoi texture lines instead, and when using the color ramp, it only makes the orange spots brighter, not revealing like it shows on yours. So something must have changed, because this no longer works it seems.

[@Alexander_Haplington]

I have an idea! What if you make a broken (and maybe frosted too, like maybe as a parameter) glass material??

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks for the idea 👍‍

[@user-fd1rk7rk5p]

I identify one flaw with this. The .5 distortion factor that indicates the red-orange lava flow lines, they do not correlate with the solid parts. (for example, sometimes they flow *into* the solid rock parts, and sometimes they flow parallel to the "shorelines" of the rocky parts. There should be some physics that determine how the flows are related to the rocky parts, right? Theoretically, is there a way to fix this, or is maybe this just something that is not possible within blender?

[@Mega_Monkey]

thanks! could you show how to make a procedural moon material

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for the idea! Yeah that's on my list of materials to make.

Hi Ryan. I have been watching and following your KZbin channel for almost two years now. You and your KZbin channel are excellent! I have been recommending your KZbin channel on Facebook Blender groups, and to any of my friends who want to learn Blender. I was just wondering what specs do you have in your computer? It must be pretty powerful for you to do the designs you do on youtube. Thank you. Do you have another computer besides the one you film videos on for KZbin so you can practice/play around with Blender?

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for watching my tutorials! I only use one computer for my Blender work. *Here are my PC specs:* Ryzen-3900X CPU 12 Core 24 Threds Cooler Master CPU Liquid Cooler EVGA Supernova 1000 Watt Power Supply RTX 2080 Super WINDFORCE OC 8G Graphics Card 500 GB Solid State Drive 3TB Hard Drive 3000 MHz DDR4 32 GB Ram Thermaltake Level 20 MT ARGB Mid Tower Computer Case ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Hero (WI-FI AC) AMD Ryzen AM4 DDR4 M.2 USB 3.1 ATX X370 Motherboard

[@TrevorSomers]

@@RyanKingArt Wow! Thank you Ryan for sharing your specs with me. I'm surprised you run a RTX 2080 Super WINDFORCE OC 8GB Graphics Card, I would think you would at least have a RTX 3080 with 24GB of Vram for the stuff you produce on your channel. Have you seen a system using Blender using the new RTX 4090 GC? I bet it is blazing fast for rendering. Take care.

[@RyanKingArt]

@@TrevorSomers Well I bought that card like 2 and a half years ago, so next time I upgrade my computer, I will buy a better one. Yeah I would love to get an RTX 4090 sometime.

@@RyanKingArt Cool! I was thinking could you animate the lava in this tutorial somehow? Like make it flow. That would be a cool effect if you could. Wow! 2 and a half years ago! I bet you are ready for an upgrade.

I should probably reinstall Blender with version 3.4, since Linear Light is not something that is an option on the old Mix RGB node.

No the linear light is in the older mix RGB node too. I used it in many of my tutorials before 3.4 was released.

[@Soulsphere001]

@@RyanKingArt Ack! Yeah, I see it now. Thank you. I think I get confused with it because if the drop-down menu opens upward it reverses the order of list of blend modes. So I never got comfortable with the way they're displayed.

[@jeffreyspinner9720]

Oh, so you've made a NYC material. I live in that here. You'd be surprised what you can get used to if you are exposed to it long enough. I've been wondering about why you use voronoi over musgrave texture nodes, and noise texture over white noise nodes (the content creators in the EU tend to use white noise nodes to add randomness), I wonder the difference... is it a thought out choice by you, or it's always how you've done it so it was like grandfathered in?

[@RyanKingArt]

Umm yeah I just like using the voronoi and noise textures.
