Not sure, but i bet it could already be done with simulation nodes from scratch with the tools we have now, so i imagine its just a matter of time for it to be made

Constructive feedback would be good here

Try rotating and appling rotation on your object, fill curve only works in certain orientations atm

@@Polycount-tw4ix ah it worked! I was loosing it, thanks for this work flow, killer job

@@adim101-b9lnew kids not coming from 3ds Max and Maya side won't understand. The direction blender folks are on is good. We can't have everything in one update. They should be grateful that we are getting something. I've been using Maya extensively for the office and its updates are miserable. They almost forgot xgen and bifrost geo is still stupid to convert to normal mesh.

I've been using max for 23 years now. And with Tyflow and PhoenixFD it's pretty much a beast. The best thing about max is it's perspective viewport look. Compared to C4D and Blender and Maya it just looks better. I'm talking about when you're working on a model; not interactive viewport render realism. Basically max has the sharpest, cleanest look.

alot of what I do is for productions so I really just come up with solutions to problems :) it can also help getting inspiration from films, tv, art etc

@@Polycount-tw4ix i am just a beginner so that really just cracked my mind. Your understanding of this is amazing!

I think alot of work went into reworking grease pencil, it was basically rebuilt

As someone who is with Blender for 15 years, I cannot express my utter disappointment. But modern Blender have invited so many noobs, any criticism would be drowned in a sea of blind fanboyism, claiming how Blender soon gonna destroy ZBrush, SPainter, Cinema and Marvelous with one swing

Unfortunately, we can't compare them. Blender has a really small team of less than 100 people, while Maxon has more than 600. And Blender is free. But yeah, it indeed makes us really sad...

@@igorrocha1819 My main concern is that modeling in Blender wasn't properly updated for 5-6 versions now, and there are still many glaring issues in general. some are like decade old, but instead of fixing some core problems, they do random crap like ruining well established workflows by rewriting auto-smooth or making yet another revamp of Grease pencil... It's also really funny how before the Blender team started receiving funds from numerous companies, working basically for free, they managed to do much greater improvements than what they do now (rewriting entire core for supporting n-gons, entire modeling tool-set, developing Cycles, then Cycles 2.0, making completely new UI, big work on simulations back then etc). These days it's more like: "hey, the icons are more smoother now and windows are having round corners"

yes, with the thousands of dollars that you donate to the Blender team, surely they should listen to your angry disappointment and make changes accordingly.

​@@gotmoresoul I can list you a number of things that were made by devs for free, so now comes a new generation of devs who break what was working before in their attempt to reinvent the wheel. This naturally pіssеs off people who worked with Blender far longer and remember how better some things were, just to be met with fanboys like you with their "Acshually, Blender is free". I admire programmers who made Blender for free and not those devs who ruin it also for free

just use noise with UV setup and be happy

This won’t happen because it’s not possible - when the shader is calculated, each pixel is unaware of the surrounding neighbours. A blur is averaging out values between neighbouring pixels, hence, why a blur node is not included in shader nodes. No other 3D DCC has this either. When the proper texturing workflow (texture nodes) is implemented, blurring will be possible there, but not in shader nodes (aside from the noise hack way of doing it).

@@btn237 🤔 interesting

The volume is fine lol

Thanks! Appreciate the sub!

You could do it using drivers but it gets annoying as youd have to repath the driver when you change the camera, id like to see an option to read in camera data like that directly into geo nodes

Glad i could help!

Thanks! glad you liked it, and yeah very excited to see what people come up with

For me it was just following enough videos when it came out, and understand the principles of what was being taught, then changing it and making my own systems slowly, when hitting roadblocks finding solutions online

Thanks!

@@Polycount-tw4ix you're welcome^^

dont mind at all!

Hey! It sounds like in this case adding a 'boolean' modifier to either mesh, selecting the other in the modifier and setting it to intersect :)

Yeah layers are essentially a new data type, like points or faces, so by ticking "layers as instances" you can store the instance index then use that to get different colors per layer or randomise attributes per layer (doing this youd just get different values for each layer)

Using the force node group before the simulation to give the particles initail upwards and random velocity using a noise texture :)

@@Polycount-tw4ix is that a short cut key how can i do that?

Itll be 4.3 :)

@@Polycount-tw4ix so hyped like bl4.2 already has some big improvements .

Sadly thats just how it has to be for smoke sims in blender, they have to bake on the cpu atm

@@Polycount-tw4ix great, thanks!

Thanks really glad you find the explanation clear
