where the fuck has this been all my life

bro you doing god's work! thank you!

DUDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! THIS IS THE SHINANIGAN OF THE CENTURY LOL THX A LOTTTTTTTTTT BROOOO! How is this even on the internet? dangs

thanks for tutorial I will share what I know too so we share all together and gain more knowledge for free together

Undoubtedly most comprehensive series on normal editing (even if it’s not that as you said in earlier videos) and how to achieve anime shading A shame these videos don’t get much traction from the algorithm, happy that I stumbled upon them nevertheless

Saved my life

It already has good uv in Clo3d and better to unwrap mesh before merging points

Would it be possible to use an already existing image texture with this? I saw that you put the color on after setting everything up and I don't if I can put an already painted texture on. I wasn't planning on having to bake the shader originally but plans changed.

Honestly can't believe I haven't found this video sooner. It's a very interesting method. I think It could be adapted to work almost like the way you'd make hair in a program called vroid studio where you basically draw hair on to a net that wraps around the head. then you could have multiple of those nets a different angles to create more spiky shorter or messier hair

I've replaced most of the constraints with bone parenting, cause blender aparently doesn't copy object level constraints into assets when exporting them to the asset library(?. Is there anything that might break the eyes rig in your experience? Apart from that, i've finished the whole series about three times already lol, it has been certainly great!

Hey, I learned a lot from this so thanks. i just ran into this kind of problem. I noticed that when i Rotate the Iroot bone, the displaces go off the area where the Iris is on the mesh. anyway for me to fix that?

감사합니다

That is amazing !

So glad I found your channel! earned a Sub!

its been a while since the Transfer Attribute node was removed. do you know an alternative you could share please?

Time 6:55 from my video, everything I do is not the same as what you did. Can you please explain? Can you introduce a more detailed video on this matter?

How would the sleeve have caused problems as modeled from Marvelous Designer? I see that it is made of all quads. Why couldn't it be used as is? This seems like a huge amount of work. Is it really necessary? When deadlines are tight, every shortcut has to be taken.

Is there a more efficient way of getting the UV tangent in geometry nodes now? I saw a pretty decent setup using topology nodes but it’s not interpolated between points properly.

Hey so I have been trying to follow this tutorial but for some reason whenever I set the plane to the curve it just squishes the plane on the x axis, I can get the curve flowing the right way with the right tilt and at goes in the direction I need it to however it just squishes everything on the X axis making it hard to know how wide I should have the strands while editing it flat only to find they are way thinner when attaching them to the curve. Of course once you apply the simple deform it stretches it out again making it look a little more like it should but it still doesn't give the greatest representation of where the strands need to go when laying it flat.

i downloaded the gumroad files, but unable to implement this in a different face model, is it possible?

This is beyond frusturating because my plane is all rotated weridly and not doing what your's is doing and I've watched this video and the last video and I can't get it to cooperate with me.

Hello, I want to learn the method you used, but I don't know geometry node at all. At the very beginning of the work, I encountered a problem in the geometry node section, the part where you attributed the plane to the dress. Do you know of a step-by-step tutorial teach me

I can't seem to be able to turn the empties... do you know of another way I can do that?

Hello, I have a problem, can you help me? When we delete the group input and enter the object info and attribute it to the model, the uv ref disappears. I connect it to the geometry and it disappears again.

Thanks!

Awesome video, just binged a lot of your videos and I am very impressed. Question , in your video for clean toon shading with object normals, how do you bake the normals to a uv map? Tried following the series customizing normals but gave up, geometry nodes are not my cup of tea, would appreciate the advice.

Just stumbled upon this. Loved it. Question: how do you bake it to a normal map?

thats brilliant!

2:04:49 Couldn’t you just use generated coordinates and separate XYZ?

Does this work in game engines like Unreal and Unity?

Thank you soooo much!!!! I searched everywhere on how to make a matcap shader to a material and didn't find anything at all. Everyone was so dumbfounded at that question, I can't believe I accidentally stumble upon the solution here. Really grateful for this knowlegde. Truly a treasure trove of knowledge in this channel. ❤‍🔥

"UV Retopoloy"... don't use complex words, put them together, hoping it'll make sense. UV retopology doesn't mean anything. UVs are the projection of your 3D mesh on a 2D plane that's all. You retopologize your mesh, you'll have "retopologized" UVs. Not the other way around.

I know this is reaaaaaally old, but at 14:50 I have scaled things correctly with the Scale node and I've checked things and nodes about 4 or 5 times, including the scale on the Object UV's and mapping that was done on the first chapters, and i cannot get the same results as you do when moving. Scaling by any amount still does not result in the correct movement, and the only "culprit" I can think off the top of my head is the bone setup (I've flipped it in some ways that are not 1-1 with your original setup), but i find it has not affected anything else of the setup as far as here (Even the bone of the catchlight is oriented the same way, wich i think " s h o u l d " give me the same results as on 14:50) So far I'll continue with the tutorial, but I find it really rather odd blender behavior. The only thing I've found odd is, since I use prop driver with blender 4.0ish, I cannot paste things into the "custom properties" tab. Instead, Prop driver has a feature in wich it allows you to directly insert the properties you've selected into the shader tab. Still, everything else has worked the exact same, the only difference being in that I did not manually create the attribute node that inserts the location, rot and scale and plugged the values there manually. I'll also add that adding a custom property with manual drivers for the pos, rot and scale of the catchlight bone has not worked for me (and that's why I used the Prop Driver addon features). I'll try more stuff later.

amazing series! Now that geometry nodes has been updated and goo engine also has extra stuff will you be remaking this? Would be great to have a concise version :)

Great tutorial, useful techniques. Deserves more views

well i will save this for later

36:28 you mean subdivision not subsurf right?

Are you also on Mastodon? I don't use twitter anymore. Thanks! Great work!

Very nice. Small mention: You know, there is a stitch function in Blenders UV area that stiches islands very fast and exactly? Before stiching you just need to activate the "average islands scale function and use the "Stitch" function then. All is found in the UV menu inside the UV editor. This save you a bunch of time when stiching islands. Greetings!

Amazing, many thanks ❤

Ran into some problems with the Object pupil function. whenever i adjust it only the y seems to be effected and the left eye is more squished than the right. is there anything i can do? edit: Nvm i got it

Hey man! :) Did you see the new RayPortal BSDF in 4.2? With this node you can bake textures in Cycles. Theoretically even high to lowpoly bakes. Unfortunately no one has figured out the object to tangent space normal conversion yet. I tried the MikkT space within the compositor. But had no luck. This might be a challenge for a bright guy like you.

when I use the eyedropper on the bezier curve the plan turns but does not bend why is that ?

thank you i learned a lot from this

This looks so promising, and exactly along the lines my poor naive expectations were coming into 3D. Thanks for the vid!

It's a great method and very simple, thank you. I also found an easy way to save the UV map without unwrapping the retopology.

Thanks a lot! This is such a smart technique.

absolutely incredible. thanks dawg

I think you forgot to share how to make the matcap.

For baking the normals with this method, what color setting do I use in the color management tab? Standard, Agx, Filmic?
