is there a way that i can select a texture node and quickly preview just that node on my model? like, say i just have a noise texture going into a displacement on a sphere. i want to temporarily look at the black and white noise pattern on the sphere, rather than its displacement effect, without having to disconnect and reconnect nodes. keyshot lets me do this by just selecting the noise node and pressing C, for Color preview. can blender do the same? e: also can i change the increment when i drag on a number field? i want it to drag in .001 or .01 instead of .1 Sagebrush fucked around with this message at 21:58 on Oct 29, 2023 |

Sagebrush posted:is there a way that i can select a texture node and quickly preview just that node on my model? make sure you have the node wrangler add on enabled. then it’s ctrl + shift + right click if you hold shift while you drag then the increment gets smaller, but no it kinda sucks you can’t really fine tune it. best you can do is drop a math node before and use math to change the increment. it’s lame fart simpson fucked around with this message at 00:24 on Oct 30, 2023 |

i used an iteration zone. you can set the max hair length and the number of iterations to get the density you want. hair length is driven comes by the maximum length length * image texture brightness edit: same monkey but with subdivision before the geometry nodes instead of after:

not especially. with cycles it takes a few minutes to render. with eevee it's pretty much instant

Anyone have ideas for how you'd do animated fx for the rapidly evolving orange effect in this? I have some fake volumetrics that might do for stills, but wouldn't really work in motion since the structures split and break apart, and my other thought is Voronoi patterns in a volumetric cloud since they can split in that way, but it seems like it'd be hard to get the right kinds of shapes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtHGXFS_xXY Reason Voronois occurred to me is I made these sail effects and they're kind of the right sort of thing but the shapes aren't right for this. Maybe more generally the idea of procedural 3D textures controlling the density of a volume could work..? https://s1.webmshare.com/bxago.webm e: That embed doesn't work but it should show if you copy the link.

blender 4 has a new colour transform/management thing idk if it’s better than filmic. it certainly isn’t just entirely better whereas filmic made the previous management worthless I am rendering up some kind of animations to show the difference but internet is hosed so who knows if and when I’ll get it up 😉

echinopsis posted:I am slowly accepting that maybe it is colors desaturate toward white at high values rather than clipping to pure red, green, whatever. it looks better plus its written to work natively w/ different color spaces so by using agx you can use rec2020 or the apple p3 or whatever its called spaces rather than being stuck to srgb and its also written to work with spectral cycles, which is definitely coming any day now

I ran a couple of comparisons to see which one I preferred more and I have settled for the new one, as evident with new animation in images thread

hello, I've been working on recreating the opal carpaint shader in cycles that epic showed off in one of the UE substrate shader demos. Here's a few quick renders  https://i.imgur.com/S4SPArj.mp4 get it here: download

which made me realize. a node graph flows very similarly to reverse polish notation

RPN owns but if you'd prefer an infix notation the shunting yard algorithm is very easy to implement

anyway the next thing i need to get working is a way to reuse "variables". so like that value node labeled x, i want to be able to plug it into another add node further down the chain. i guess i need to keep track of a map of symbols to node references and then build up those additional links as a post processing step or something
