Auto-gen Cans Breakdown (Intro to Random Nodes Goodness)
Added 2020-03-17 22:58:57 +0000 UTCThis is an explanation of the cans asset I just released at the "clearance 7" level, but it also has a breakdown of shenanigans you can do with the "Object Info" random input node, which as been a ridiculously fun thing to play with over the past few months.
If you actually know blender nodes, I suspect my workflow is pretty cringe inducing, but if not... it's hopefully useful??

And the video lasts 11:11 minutes, that's a plus for me and my mental disorders :D

2020-07-15 06:37:01 +0000 UTCi'd love to see that too
2020-04-24 02:54:06 +0000 UTCNodeception, thanks for sharing i learned alot!!
2020-03-21 21:24:46 +0000 UTCMan yeah! Blender's just taken off over the past couple years (especially this last year)- it had the same thing; infrastructure set up in the mid 90s that didn't really make sense anymore, but they just kept doing things a bit inefficiently to keep making it work, and as far as I understand, 2.8 was a big rebuild to phase out a lot of that old infrastructure, and the results have been pretty wild. The realtime eevee engine in particular has literally reshaped how I think about the CG process; lighting, texturing, and modeling are all mixed together now, which is just a totally different way of thinking. I love it.

2020-03-19 01:40:59 +0000 UTCThis is great. It's amazing how powerful and versatile Blender is. I've been using 3DS Max for decades and it seems kinda clunky now by comparison. It's like a WW2 Aircraft carrier where they keep bolting on modern weapons and comms but all the structure, plumbing and electrics are still from the 1940s.

2020-03-18 08:45:57 +0000 UTCthank you so much for making this man!
2020-03-18 08:04:37 +0000 UTCMe too! I mean- things start to fall apart really quick if I try anything more complex than that, but I'm slowly learning!

2020-03-18 01:02:24 +0000 UTCI'm surprised by how easy that turned out to be!

2020-03-18 00:17:34 +0000 UTCThanks Chip! And yeah, I can put that together! It's basically just offsetting the mapping of a separate UV layer- I'll send you a vid!

2020-03-18 00:02:35 +0000 UTCSuper stuff!!!! Be nice to see how you apply different labels to different cans. ๐ฏ
