Took me a minute to find this video again, love rewatching this!

[@saucezred742]

What an amazing node！Thank you very much!

[@HuyLe2607]

Thank you very much. I've been looking for this one since Octane made it really easy to make this kind of effect.

[@375pantone]

just perfect! is what i was looking for!

[@mikeodeo]

This is fantastic! Thank you!

[@69lure69]

It's amazing!! thank you so much!!

Красавчик, респект и уважуха! Магёшь!

[@Satagira]

Wow! Stunt effect!

[@darrynrogers204]

Thanks Karpik. This is excellent. I've had a few attempts at creating this effect but never quite got the realism that your thin film node achieves.

[@spandanjoshi2128]

yeah same i never even got close tbh

[@1upmotiongraphics181]

Great work!

[@CaioAlves]

That was amazing! Thanks!

Thank you very much for this tutorial!

[@SamuraiAxil]

Amazing work, thank you for sharing ♥

[@jays5601]

Can you describe / open up your RS Thin Film group so we can see the internals? I really want to implement this in blender. Amazing work.

[@LayilaFaon]

wow really a cool tutorial!

[@mike_nel]

Спасибо огромное за пресет! Тысяча благодарностей. Спас мою работу

[@normalrender]

thanks for this tutorial! So helpful!

[@orcunakman]

Nice one! Thanks.

[@elfinpie7290]

Awesome. Thanks!

[@20francesco11]

Thank you for the great tutorial! Any idea how you would set this up on a CD to get a nice realistic CD look?

[@dolunin]

Отлично ! спасибо )

[@PanewsONE]

really cool!!

[@causticfo]

Beautiful effect! Would love to get this working in Redshift for 3ds Max. Is there a way to view the nodes to replicate the setup without having C4D?

[@MRsantin0]

Muchas gracias genio!

thanks bro!!!

Hey, great tutorial. Just one question - it seems that the thin film preset doesn't work in the latest version, or am I doing something wrong? could you help? Cheers

[@gabrielamelina9709]

He said "Yo! I found the solution! You need to uncheck "Node Material for Presets" (Edit > Preferences > Renderer > RedShift > General > Node Material for Presets). Then when you create a new RS Standart material, the Shader Graph will open and you can import XPresso pool RS Thin Film there."

[@boblolo3977]

Wonderful work. Any way to input a custom color gradient?

Impossible to add RS Thin Film from X-Pool to Node Editor with Redshift 3.5

[@user-uw4pg5kf5x]

[@7Xseventeen]

It looks so good! Been looking for it for a long time! BUT im a absolute beginner in C4D and could you show me how to get to the point where the Video started :-)

[@karpikvisuals]

Thanks! You can try some redshift lighting tutorials

[@SergioSalloum]

great tutorial but I can't download it in my country. any dropbox file out there ?

[@igor_safin]

Спасибо большое за урок! Просто теоретический вопрос - а возможно ли применить этот же эффект не к маске по Френелю, а к Specular уровню. Маска по типу Световое пятно - Тень? У 3ds Max есть эта функция в процедурной карте - Falloff, например.

[@Kdoumiumi]

Привет! Не уверен на 100%, теперь в Редшифте появился OSL в котором можно считать closures - это как раз диффьюз, спекуляр и тд. Но не уверен что их можно дальше по цепочке нод передавать. Как простая альтернатива можно умножить нормаль (нода state -> normal) на направление источника света (либо вручную в const вектор задать, либо вычесть из позиции источника света state -> ray position и воткнуть разность в ноду normalize). Получится градиент, который можно заремапить и воткнуть в thin film ноду. Ещё как вариант можно поиграть с этим coating - там в разные места можно втыкать градиенты, возможно какая-то из комбинаций подойдёт

[@igor_safin]

@@Kdoumiumi Спасибо за развернутый ответ. Постараюсь разобраться. :)

[@Kdoumiumi]

@@igor_safin можешь в тг написать @karpik, если не оч срочно, на днях мб покопаюсь

[@igor_safin]

@@Kdoumiumi В принципе это не срочно, я с этой задачей по работе столкнулся. Если будет время и желание покопайся. Я сам просто с нодовой системой недавно познакомился. Принцип понятен, а вот все возможности - пока не разобрался. В любом случае, спасибо тебе огромное, твоя нода Тонкой Пленки очень пригодилась ))

[@lenaats9326]

How do I import the node in Redshift ?

[@D4sxysrb]

how can I do this in blender or blender octane?

[@anvilimmersive9242]

nice tutorial, can you please tell me where I can find that snake skin like texture shown at 0:08 ?

[@Coroconogka]

Большое спасибо, Алексей! Хотел оплатить через gumroad, но карту больше не пропускает :(

I bought this and when I try to drag it in it doesn't work...

[@kirill4841]

Hi, thank you for this great preset and tutorial! I have a problem installing it on my C4D R26. I can put it into xpresso node but don't know how to export this preset to the redshift node editor to make it a part of the chain. Does anyone has solution?

[@konstantinkliuchenia448]

Надеюсь на обновление для последних версий RS)

[@makfarik]

Спс. Ты супер

[@joonsetsfire]

Possible to make this for Houdini???

[@Brandonbraun]

In R21 the Film Width input stops working when you unplug the Fresnel and plug it back in.

[@karpikvisuals]

sorry to hear that! I cant recreate the problem, pls send the file on facebook facebook.com/karpique

[@JayIsABoss07501]

when i add the color coat my text went white and when i took it off it looks just how you had it , am i doing something wrong :(?

[@karpikvisuals]

Really not clear what is going on in your scene; check thin film output by connecting it to Surface, also you dm me somewhere :)

[@gomererik2732]

i cant get the node to work

[@othayolo]

i cant seem to add your node into the material editor. it just doesnt seem to add , is there some setting i must turn on prior?

[@karpikvisuals]

you need to work in old shader graph, that looks like xpresso, thats basically all

[@babaallerbabas3194]

Ok i downloaded the file but where do i need to plug it in ? Like in what folder ?

[@GoFayeGo]

He explains it in the tutorial. Shift+C search for Xpresso and click Edit click Load and drag the file there

[@KontikiChrisSK8FE]

Can this shader be used inside of Houdini-redshift?

[@yakymoto]

Unfortunately not this particular file, enjoy robust tutorial kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3Xdp6OrrL6ea68

[@babaallerbabas3194]

where tf do i need to export it ????

[@PEDRO4075]

Do not work for me 😔

[@Ricardo-de9ju]

Actually it do the job for organic surfaces but fail for flat ones. Thin Film shader in Cinema 4D can map the reflection colors quite good, not perfect but aceptable.

[@user-gg5tv8vs3h]

isn't this node Not compatible redshift 3.0.24? it's not working.

[@karpikvisuals]

hi, can you describe the problem more detailed, what exactly is not working?

[@qmarskalami3323]

I am on 3.0.24 and it works perfectly, though if you are using area lights, you might wanna refresh the render view or trigger the bucket mode if it does not show up in the render view.
