Thank you Bob - your toolset is amazing and intuitive to work with. I recall back in 'Ye Olden Tymes' when I had to script anything like that with many, many lines of code. Cheers!
Bob, as usual your tutorials are excellent. Of all the tutorials I've done on X-Particles / Cycle 4D, you can see the subtle connections between the different components of X-Particles and Cycle 4D. Thank you
i always wonder how people just get this resaults, so much steps just by testing things ? its just crazy, i mean i understand really a lot, but x particles is really complex and u have to give attention to so many things, daaamnnnnn, will be realy hard way
I learned alot from this video. Is there a more comprehensive series of videos explaining the fundamentals of all the systems and their relationships within x particles?
Hello Bob, thanks for another great tutorial what has a huge meaning to all of us in our learning curve. Can you do one quick tutorial on how to slow down and speed up the scenes? Mario was talking about it a bit in one of his presentations. Thank you.
Thanks manl! But why is the "old"-green group moving upwards even though its not changed into the new group??? shouldn't they stay unchanged until affected by the groupchange modifier? having that same issue here? Is that due to the fluidFX? How would you turn on/off FluidFX with fields? Thanks!
my explosia fx explosion is really light and I can hardly see it no matter how much I tweak settings, it certainly doesn't rise up in an explosion like yours, what am I doing wrong?
Hi, Please send a message to Technical Support regarding this. Be sure to quote this tutorial and share the scene file for them to take a look at it. insydium.ltd/helpcentre/ -Thanks
Awesome tutorial as always :) I have a problem tho. When I import an Illustrator vector file and apply an extrusion the hexagonal emission emits particles in the whole space my object occupies.
Hi - This will because the caps of your extrude aren't welded to the points. To solve this either make it editable and then Optimise the mesh, or, put your extrude object in a Connect object and emit from that
Thank you for these great tutorials. Really enjoying and learning slowly. I have a problem with Playback speed. It's much slower than yours. Is it possible to give your computer specs please ?? I have i9-7900X with 32gb and 2x1080ti but still very slow playback than yours :(
This video was recorded on a computer with the following specs: Processor: i7-7820X CPU @ 3.60GHz, 8 Core Graphics Card: 2 x Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080Ti RAM: 64.0 GB. Are you using the early access release? Since I installed that my sims are super slow.
Why doesn't XP respect the actual falloff of the field? It just goes 100% as soon as it reaches the inner offset. The POC feels like a hack and wouldn't look great with a color change.
Mark Thornhill hi. A falloff cannot work with this modifier as it works in a binary way - a particle can either be in a group or not - there’s no possible middle ground. If you want to do a colour change you would use a colour modifier with a falloff, or data mapping.
7:48 I followed exactly same, and my simulation doesn't make that blobby Cloud looks. Fires just going upwards straight.. Can anyone help me🥺 It's extremely frustrating
and and I want my clouds look voxel styles like in the tutorial! It just look like half-transparent low res fire in my viewport.(Damn Cranking up Resolution and Slices makes beautiful fire looks but extremely slowing down my Mac🤣🤣) I think I just prefer Grid mode with increased Voxel LOD

Beauty of bob sir in x particles 💓
Oh my! Always great to see these!
Excellent logical teaching style! Thank you

I wonder when do we have an x particles course by Insydium? Free tutorials seem awesome and helpful.
Great one, Bob and Mario!

Bob you gotta use the new camera lock for Cycles 4D! I love it
When I add the FluidFX, the particles explode apart. Yes, it's excluded from the EFX emitter. Learning stopped in its tracks :(
Same issue here, did you find any solution ?
@@williamlosik6316 make sure hexagonal is set to emit on one frame?
I love xp and your tutorials
Hi, why in ExplosiaFX when i choose smoke in display i see only particles? (sorry for my english)
I do have the same problem. And i cannot achieve the same effect of "mushroom smoke" shape at all with exactly same settings shown over here...
Same here! I'm trying out X-P trial tho

Thank you Bob for this again great Tutorial.... and don't be too lazy next time :-)
How can I apply materials to particle objects with redshift? Or how can i get the spheres without the Cycles plugin? Thanks!

Did you ever figure this out?
is there any way to do the similar result with Cycles Instances shown here but do it somehow in Redshift?
Hi guys, I am following the tut, but can I use something different than Fields, since I am on R19 ?
Bob with this tutorial , mr. Hupke is becoming obsolete. -:). thanks !
Thats a great one!! One question, I use a tube and make it editable but it fill everything even the hole. I'm I doing something wrong?
Hi - you'll need to Optimise the mesh so the caps points are welded correctly with the rest of the tube.
@@bobwalmsley1 Thanks Bob! It do the trick

May be something to do with ExplosiaFX settings ? ?
i have seen on insta some one made bridge destruction in Cinema 4d and X-Particles can you made a tut of this please
I'm using an i9 9900k and my scene doesn't process as fast as yours. Must be a crazy good system setup you have there!

@@andyfenning1 thanks for the info! I am on the early access yes. So you think this video was using a different version?
@@brown2840 thy in you task manager to change the priorities to real-time or high. it will seep up.

What software is this?

anyone else having an issue with emitter not displaying explosia?
yup, tired of watching these super long tutorials that end up being outdated halfway through
