How many subdivides do you do for the Ico sphere?

[@eclecticgamer5144]

This is probably the best presentation of a tutorial I've ever seen. Great speed, Great detail, no hem/hawing, concise yet detailed.

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks! Glad you like it.

[@Neyez]

Thank you! I was struggling with making a stone material and yours one is not only perfect but you also give an explanation of how each node works and what exactly does it add to the material, so we can play around and adjust to our needs. Thank you very much for sharing your material and your knowledge!

[@tontonjeannot6089]

Brilliant! Clear, concise, yet full of important information on node usage and workflow. Great!

[@RyanKingArt]

Glad you like it. Thanks for watching!

Every time I do one of your tutorials I am amazed by the brilliant ways you use the voronoi texture. I never think of it.

Keep making videos on procedural materials 👍 Making my own materials was a herculean task for me and now I'm getting good at it. Thanks 👍💖💖

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for watching!

[@shwetanksingh6345]

Another fabulous tutorial. I love how you keep the node setup simple and achieve perfect results. I've always believed a lot of material tutorials unnecessarily overcomplicate the node setup by taking the circuitous routes. appretiate your efforts. Thanks

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for the comment! Glad my videos are helpful. : )

[@LammyQ]

An excellent tutorial resulting in a gorgeous material. Thank you very much for sharing!

[@RyanKingArt]

You're very welcome! Thanks for watching 😀

This saved my butt, giving me the elusive texture for a large temple complex that I just couldn't pin down. On a very large scale like I'm using, I found that what works best is to just leave the very final bump map addition out of the equation. I just ended up muting the final bump and changing the scale of everything; I ended up adding a mapping node immediately after the coords (so I could scale the coords in the mapping node) and I switched to UV coords (which all had to be mapped) because they allowed for consistency among all faces; UV for any given face that was too stretched or compressed could be manipulated individually. So the whole thing ended up working very well. I run across these situations frequently, were a tutorial saves my behind, and each time it happens, I'm more and more appreciative of the people like Ryan King who take the time to make these videos and share what they've learned and discovered.

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks for watching!

I find that procedural material are less laggy if you use Cycles render engine instead of Eevee.

[@ushirogeri8085]

Thank you. Great tutorial, however I would add mapping for scaling the texture.

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks. yes you could use the mapping. But I used the scale on the texture.

[@jjmartin6422]

05:02 for anybody lost here, to get mix color, use a mix node, then change the "float" option in the mix node to "color" and your node will automatically change it's color and name to match what's in the video.

[@user-xw2kz9wg4z]

Спасибо.

It's actually very cool even with basic lighting. Very skyrim in fact.

Thanks 😄

[@patrizia4482]

First of all, great tutorial! Though I have a problem with rendering this material: For my free-form Object I copied your stone material, exactly as shown in the tutorial. (Also added a subdivision and bevel modifier). During my render the surface fills up with more and more white dots until it becomes completly white where light is supposed to be. Also the shadow dissolves. In the render preview everything looks fine except for Ehen viewing trough the camera. I‘d be very greatful for help:)

I pretty much just tweak the values, and see how it changes visually. Then I can just adjust it as needed.

Is it possible to create a procedural cookie material ?

[@RyanKingArt]

Yes you could. Actually that is on my list of Procedural Materials to create. : )

[@HinnerkHesse]

I am a total beginner in blender and this is the most processing my brain has ever done, how is all of this even possible to figure out LMAO

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for watching! Keep on practicing and watching tutorials, and you will eventually understand it. 👍‍ I also have a procedural nodes for beginners tutorial if you want to check that out on my channel. I remember when I started using Blender, I found the nodes very complicated and a bit overwhelming to understand, but now making procedural materials is one of my favorite things to do with Blender!

[@HinnerkHesse]

[@RyanKingArt]

[@qwertyuiop-pj3dw]

My bump node is not working even though I've subdivided the mesh...

[@krooshum3215]

At the beginning, between the noise and voronoi. Why use the color node rather than Fac node? When use the color node,and when should i use Fac node?

[@RyanKingArt]

The factor value is determining where its using color 1 and color 2 on the material

[@the_lui3632]

Could one of your future tutorials be an ice material

[@RyanKingArt]

Yes, that is on my list of tutorial ideas. Thanks!

[@torbjornkallstrom2316]

I don't know why but whenever I try doing a material like this the bump always make the material look super shiny, and it has nothing to do with the roughness

[@bogdanlupu3679]

I have a problem with the second voronoi. The one that render the cracks. When I set to Distance to Edge the object become completely black. All transformations and SS mods aplied. Unless I change to 2D . Have the latest blender .

[@RyanKingArt]

That's probably because of your objects scale. Try scaling up the voronoi scale.

[@locutos8397]

I wish i could follow this, but for some reason Voronoi is killing my fps, it was slow, but went to a stand still after the second bump node. My gtx1060 says "help". Thanks for the tutorial!

[@RyanKingArt]

ahh sorry that its laggy

[@johnray1956]

what do you have over the Principled BSDF, ( it says viewer)?

[@RyanKingArt]

its the feature of the node wrangler. but in the newer version of blender, the viewer node was removed

[@johnray1956]

@@RyanKingArt Thanks, I was doing the Tutorial again. I was monkeying with settings and found an interesting design, after removing the connection to the bump map to check something, and i got a really nice marble going, the marble was deep due to a bump map connected above. I got several designs by moving numbers around. another design is a Melted Rock going on. its just interesting how small changes can impact things so much.

[@longlivethesecondplaceice2736]

A follow the vidoe step by step and watch carefully but it keeps crushing if a connact the second bump map. Any idea why ?

[@RyanKingArt]

hmm, I've found that when using the Eevee engine, the bump can make it a bit laggy. Maybe try using the Cycles engine, if your using Eevee.

[@longlivethesecondplaceice2736]

@@RyanKingArt a tried Cycles engine and even tried make the texture from scratch again a even uninstall blender and reinstall but the moment a connect the voronoi texture with the bump 7:13 blender crashes.

URGENT I just rendered something and it only rendered 1250 out of my 2000 frames. At 1250 frames it looks grayer at the time player. PLease Help!!

[@RyanKingArt]

What are you rendering? A 3d animation? Or compositing, or a video edit?

[@progettazione_case_moderne]

at this level the windows oeprative system is not able to keep up with the work and makes the program jump.. before doing the tutorial, write which operating system is compatible with such a complex job because i don't know how it comes to the end..

Not sure why but object coordinate didn't work. I had to switch to generated for the voronoi texture to show. Using 2.93.

Also not getting any bumps at all. Just a flat texture.

[@RyanKingArt]

Hmm that's weird. It should work the same in 2.9.

[@justapile4376]

@@RyanKingArt I've noticed a lot of things don't work the same. Ever since 2.7, I've been having issues getting things to work.

[@justapile4376]

Seems to work fine in 3.0

[@progettazione_case_moderne]

Are you by any chance an employee of those who make and sell graphics cards? because for each node you place you need to add a dedicated graphics card, this material is created by taking a picture of a stone and working with the gimpy normal map!! and it takes a thousandth of the time..I don't understand what all these steps are for..

[@KeremLBJ]

Can someone tell why does it say "Rendering Done" top left of his Preview screen? me = noob

[@RyanKingArt]

That's the viewport rendering, in the rendered shading mode. In the sampling tab you can tell Blender how many samples you want Blender to render for the viewport preview. Also, you won't see that unless your using the Cycles render engine.

[@KeremLBJ]

@@RyanKingArt Thanks a lot 😅
