Beautiful, just so beautiful. I've made this channel my everyday must watch blender guide since i started working with blender. I love when you said 'the more you experiment with something the more you discover' it speaks to me. Thank you so much.
Hello. This is a very clear and easy to understand tutorial, and it works very well for a single floating object; but if I want to have several objects keeping their positions relative to each other, when I apply "copy location" it modifies their original position placing all the objects in the center. How can I correct this situation?
You need to use a separate guiding plane for each object. Or alternatively, you can enable X-Y-Z options in the copy location constraint for one object. For the other objects in the group, just enable Z in their respective copy location constraint. Now add a child of constraint for these objects, set the first object as the parent and enable X & Y only. So these objects will wave according to the height of the water but they will maintain the same relative position w.r.t. the first object.
Great videos, I find them really easy to follow. Can you make a tutorial with tips for quicker modelling? I just started working on gun models for my game, so it would be helpful if I could be a little bit faster with it.
Yes, we are coming up with a modeling tutorial this week. It will be pretty simple just for absolute beginners. You may need little more advanced one for a rifle or gun, which we will bring soon.
Vety well explained... One thing i want ask is that sometime water come above the torus which looks sinking so maybe to correct those frames we can do manual work like baking simulation on plane and then manually adjust it.
it's creepy that people don't use their real voices - we probably will all be lifeless androids with a shared web-based conscious one day. Aside from that...great video!
Glad that you liked at least something about our tutorial 💝 while I understand your concerns on the other areas. Btw, the idea of a shared web-based consciousness was really unique and very thoughtful 😲😲
Thank you very much for delivering such great content using simple, quick, and easy to follow demonstrations. I baked and exported the plane animation to use in another application, but it appears that the shrink modifier registers only movement in the X axis by keeping the object's origin at the same height and rotation (0,0,0). Same with the torus' movement. Is there any way to register the rotation and Y Axis movement of the guiding plane towards the animation so that wavy movement can be exported? I really appreciate your content and teaching approach.
Hey, thanks a lot! Glad that you liked our tutorials. I did not try with export. As such Blender's export module has limited support in many areas, so we need to be really lucky to get everything working in an exported version 🙂
@@5MinutesBlender Hi, I exported as FBX and Allembic, both didn't registered rotations and Y movement. I also placed a simulated rigid body with gravity on top of the plane, either way its transform wasn't registered. I'll keep searching. Thank you for your quick reply.
Yes. We preferred to use the menu options for clarity, for beginners, as they might find it easy to remember (but shift+A is operationally easy). I seldom actually use the menus when I am doing my own work 😂
You need to add the motion to the guiding plane instead of the boat. The boat will follow this motion since it has the copy location constraints while floating on the water.
You can simply keep the object initially under the water. The constraint will automatically bring it upward to the surface. Try it out, and if it does not work, please send me your blend file so that I can see what exact setup you have and suggest you accordingly.
Again another terrific and accessible tutorial! . One question, my torus has a kind of nervous jitter to it as it moves over the waves, is there anything I can do to smooth that out? Thank you.
Glad you liked the tutorial! To smooth out the jittery motion, you can increase the size of the guiding plane. Experiment with the size because if you make it too large, you'll lose the motions completely. Use something that makes it more realistic.
@@bobdobs8855 Yes. For the cloth, you do not need a separate guiding plane. The cloth itself can be the plane. But you can still use a separate guiding plane if you wish to, no problem!
@@5MinutesBlender would the process be the same for using a video image as the cloth? When I try that it appears to be captured as a still image instead of a moving image.
Please check if the modifiers are added correctly and if your plane has the correct normal. If unable to resolve, you can send your blend file to 5minblender@gmail.com so that we can investigate and suggest a solution. Please include one line on the problem statement when you send the file. Thank you!
I made a boat float by this method but the ocean water is getting inside the boat. I have tried boolean modifier but it is not working properly. please make a tutorial on how to fix it.
Hi, as of now a boolean modifier is the only easy way to remove this water from inside of the boat. You need to add a boolean modifier AFTER the ocean modifier for the plane, and select the boat as the target with the "difference" option. While it works in most of the cases, it can fail if the ocean surface has a hole, or a break in its geometry. Such holes are resulted from a very turbulent ocean movement. If the ocean water is relatively calm, the above setup should work, I have tested the same. We'll probably come up with a tutorial soon on this, I found it interesting.
for some reason the object I imported is totally off sync with the waves/plane, it goes up or down with the waves 1-2 seconds later, any idea what's causing it?
Just a wild guess, please check the origin point of the object that you have imported. Usually the size of the guiding plane is a very crucial factor here. But I guess you have already ensured that the plane is in-sync with the ocean waves, it is the 3rd object which is only out-of-sync. So my doubt is on the origin point. Set the origin point of this imported object to that of the plane, you may get a better result. Please let me know if this does not solve your issue.
I've been trying to figure out how to do this with geomerry nodes. I've gotten close but the object z-axis floats too high above the waves?? Help, anybody/ lol
Hi, it sounds good that you did this using geo nodes 👍 If you can share your project blend file, I can probably understand the issues that you described here and I can try to look for a solution. Our contact details (Email ID) are given in the About section of this channel. Thank you!
Yes, it should work if you create each letter as a solid 3d object and float each piece separately. If you don't want the whole text to float together as a flat surface, not a 3d object, you need to look for other methods like curve modifier or shrinkwrap.
Good question. No, shrinkwrap constraint won't work in this case (it will work but not perfectly) because shrinkwrap constraint works on the entire object, it does not affect each vertex point. So the guiding plane won't snap correctly to the ocean surface. We need to use a shrinkwrap modifier for the correct result.
Yes, that's possible. In fact we have another floating tutorial with that method, you can watch 👉 th-cam.com/video/N-yohyp0Ja8/w-d-xo.html Between the two methods, the one we used in this tutorial gives slightly better result.
thanks for the tutorial, but I have an error and it is that when I do the render, the ocean waves are not previewed in the final result, it looks completely smooth u_u I don't know why....
One quick check. Did you set the Render resolution same as that for the Viewport? These two fields are there next to each other in the Ocean modifier settings and they should be same. Can you please check if they are different?
Check the origin of your cup. If you bring the origin down to the bottom of the cup, it will float just above the ocean surface and the ocean won't penetrate through the cup. But if you want it to float submerged (half merged), it will be somewhat tricky. The ocean will penetrate the cup in that case, so you need to add a boolean modifier to the ocean to cut out the part that penetrates the cup.
Hi, if you mean infinite in length, then it is actually not possible without illusion. You have to create a large ocean and then setup the camera such that the end part never comes to the camera front. You can place waving ocean pictures in the horizon to makeup for the ocean end. You have to fake it in one way or the other. And by "infinite" if you mean an ocean that runs infinitely, you can loop the ocean, check this tutorial 👉 th-cam.com/video/p03fspwMY64/w-d-xo.html
Sorry for the late reply. You mean it shows correctly in the viewport but the rendered output is different? Can you please send your blend file to me (5minblender@gmail.com) so that I can check and suggest you accordingly?
Hi, you need to hide it from render. There are two icons, one looks like an eye, it hides an object from viewport. Beside this, there is another icon like a camera, it hides the object in the render output, you need to use this to hide your plane. If you can't even see this camera icon, open the filter menu in the outliner panel and enable the display of this camera icon (this icon itself may be hidden by default).
Disable the render visibility for that plane (it is a camera icon beside the eye icon - if you can't see it, use the filter option to display the render visibility icon first, then click on it to disable it).
You need to turn off the render icon for the plane (in the Outliner, you can see an eye icon - next to that you have an icon for render or just google it on how to enable this render icon in the Outliner, then turn it off). Now the plane won't be visible in your render output.
Hello 5MB. You know I've learnt alot from you, So i eventually tried recreating this.. It worked very fine. However I tried to experiment by adding another object that's floats (boat). I discovered the boat was twitchy even when the guiding plane was bigger than the boat. Please, What could be the cause. Check the video on 'ayEbrid animation studios' channel, tilted '3d ocean with soft foam layer | Blender | animation'. That's my personal animation channel.
Thank you bro! I checked your channel. Really cool 👍 You can increase the size of the guiding plane to control the twitching of the boat. Or you can reduce the influence field in the Copy Rotation constraint. Use a value of 0.2 or like that to reduce its rotational movement or frequency. I think that should work.
@@5MinutesBlender @5 Minutes Blender Oh... Thank you. Didn't even think of that. What would i do without 5MB. I will leave a comment here when it works.
