Thank you Kenny, every tutorial you do have, has so many little nuggets of information. I learn so much, this is a great tutorial, I haven't really gotten into quixel mixer so this will be a great opportunity to dip my toes.
Fantastic job explaining everything, the UV work here was amazing. Thanks for your videos, the amount of information you pack in is invaluable for anybody looking to learn.
Man this is really inspiring! I love your workflow. I sometimes struggle with Houdini, but lately I have been really motivated to learn and watching pros like you go at it really helps a lot! thank you so much!!!
Thanks!:) I followed all the quixel tutorials and some of their live streams...once you understand the material blending and mask layers, it gets easy. I'll show my full setup in the next prop tutorial so you guys can see.
One Question: 6:36 I used the GroupExpression node for both the Top and Bottom Seams by adding another element to the array and using this expression: "@P.y==getbbox_min(0).y && @P.z==getbbox_min(0).z" My question is that why did you use the group by range node for the bottom groups? is there something down the line that messes up if you don't use the group by range node or is it just a preference? I could've done it in the same expression by adding the or Operator (||) after the top group expression but thought new element would be cleaner.
Ahhh....its just what I ended up doing. Your way sounds good to me! I dont believe it would mess anything up downstream. Thats the awesome thing about Houdini, tons of different ways to put these procedural models together. I like your approach!
Hello, thanks for sharing this knowledge. One question; is ther a way that houdini looks in the first node before an other? Example: When i want to make a preset to centroid the gizmo from a mirrornode. Normally is type centroid("../xx", D_X) and so on. But can i write it so, that it looks automatically on the node before. Because only then i can make a preset that works always without typing the exact node wich is before, because this node has always a other name. I hope i could explain what i mean.
hey, I request you, please please fix the inde pixel framework.. In the further sessions of the helicopter making, there were scripts such as force.cs, torque.cs, rigidbody.cs and many other which were only available in the framework 😪
@Indie-Pixel hey, have you updated the course? in the 1st section of the course, i which it says "setting up inde-pixcel framework" It gives me error, so have you corrected it? please reply
I have not updated that particular tool. It is totally possible to do the course without the indie-pixel framework. I would remove the indie-pixel pixel framework and continue to the next lectures.
@@Mr.T_Official yeah, I would still watch it cause we use the indie-pixel tool to create the project folders. So you'll want to create those folders. The tool itself just creates the folders for you.
Hey Kenny, just wanted to ask, with which tutorials or online courses of yours should I start as a beginner in Houdini? It’s a bit hard to navigate where to start from. Love your videos! P.S. I am a programmer so I have worked with Python.
great tutorial as always ... i want to ask you when you are going to the car physics course on udemy it's been more than two years and i'm still waiting for it
I know this isn’t really a Quixel Mixer tutorial, but I would have appreciated a bit more detail on the setup. I can’t get the applied textures to display correctly- it seems like the scale of the mesh isn’t right and things like displacement maps are scaled far too big. But then when I increase the scale of the mesh to get the Quixel textures to work, the AO texture from Houdini tiles too many times.
No prob..in order to get the AOL to tile correctly, go into that layers placement modifier and change the tiling to 1. I'll be doing a step by step mixer setup in the next prop tutorial.
Miss ya guys too! I've been taking a break, as my work ramped up and was getting a little exhausted trying to do work and make videos. So needed a little break. I'm planning on starting up again later this july. Thanks!:)
@@IndiePixel3D Glad to hear it's nothing more than a break, looking forward to it, thanks for the great content and your continued efforts, we appreciate it.
I don't really understand UV's I suppose. When you show the UV's but seemingly the model is outside the UV grid, doesn't that mean it isn't accessible by the textures/painter (for example, the 11:10 mark)? Doesn't everything need to be in the grid? Great videos btw, though I only got 12 min through this one so far.
The UV grid is only a guide to show how the texture is mapped onto geometry. If geometry extends past the edges, you can read it as though the texture is tiled infinitely across both U and V, so geometry that extends past the right edge would use the texture on the left side.
@@KZLR That is correct. Generally you want to make sure things fit into the square so that you don't have to think about wraparound - but when you texture larger scale objects like building walls, usually you'll be using seamless textures so that the edges line up well.
@@ideallyyours That is great to know, thank you. UV's is one of those topics I suspect isn't nearly as obtuse as I think of it, and I'd like to learn more about.
@@IndiePixel3D I'm lately lacking of learning material but I'm more interested in unreal over unity so, can you tell me what kind of patreon subscription should I take to access the houdini content?

Great! I have been looking for a decent procedural modelling and texturing in Quixel Mixer video~! thank you!
Thank you !!! SUPER helpful as always!
You did an amazing tutorial! Thanks a lot!
Impressive !! ✨✅
Very nice tutorial. You make look so easy 🤣
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey Kenwardicus! Hope you are doing well mate, notice you hadn't posted anywhere in a little bit. PS I am back on your patreon again.
Thanks for the continued support! I am going to be pumping out new vids this month. Needed to take a break for a bit!:) thanks again Spidnick!:)
An amazing tutorial!!! Can you recommend a step by step guide on how to do the texture process like you did for the mailbox?

Howdy Mike! Yeah you can do that if you put a 0 in...rather than ../ . That means it will use the previous node.
@@IndiePixel3D Jep, thanks very much. That is it :)
hi, can you explain what the "matchsize" node does?
great content honestly, your procedural modelling tips playlist is really helpful.

Hey mate! When will you upload your car physics course for unity..it's been 4 months you haven't uploaded anything.. Is everything okay?
awesome :D
Great tutorial as always, i have to say - the sound recording is not the best i feel on this one... hurt me a little bit with my headphones :)
Sorry bout that. My main mic broke on me and am waiting for the new ones to arrive. So all should be back to normal soon.
Can you make a tutorial on drift physics with wheelcolliders in unity
It would be really helpful , as no one teaches better than you 😎👍👍
