Bro I dont get it at all my brain is kinda melted. So you telling me instances are basically planes with another's object mesh? kinda of PC friendly copy?
Actually you could even use a single vertex and choose that as the instancing method. I prefer to use planes because they are easier to spot in the viewport when needed, but it is just down to personal preferences I guess 👍
@@hbitproject yeah, I guess that's the point. You get a copy but w/o having real polygons stored in the database to keep track of. Just a reference to that original data plus any new transforms I suppose. Well, thanks!
Great Tutorial, loved how you explained your collection structure & why you set it up in that way, that's one of the things I feel isn't spoken about very often :)
Literally fell in love with this channel...was having a tough time figuring out the best way to approach modelling heavily detailed italianate interiors and your content is a god send....thank you
Great tutorial ! Wow it's really awsome, I bought the pack and I am now modeling my first building in that style. I just have one question ? how would you make a perfect corner turn with instances ? I have no idea how to do that. Thanks again !
I learned a lot from your channel about modeling (especially about ornament). Would be great if you can do Prado Museum interior. That'll be great to see your technique to deal with the ceiling
Hey bro, you're going places. I like your work and I like your English. If you use geometry nodes you'll be next level. So don't do it, I don't need competition.
Question : Once you made those instances on objects .. Is there a way to make them all as normal objects so you can add modifiers or link them together . ? I tried convert to mesh , select them all and used un parent . thank you for this great video 👍
This excellent. For years I've been confused about the limitations of instancing in blender but this video has changed my approach. It's too bad you can't use arrays on empties (seems more logical ) but a plane will do just fine !

Am I getting it right - parenting and instancing is used for keeping resources consumption low? I thought we can just use array modifier for that? Or maybe array modifier is way more heavy for PC?
Man you are amazing, thank you very much, pure experience and talent , thank you for sharing such knowledge 🫶🏻 I wonder though will this be expensive in a game engine if its made like a game asset with its own baked texture and uv mapped
Thank you mate! Baking textures would be a problem I guess since instances are sharing the same UV map (the one of the original mesh). Have you though about creating a couple of variations of the pieces you want to be there for real and baking the rest on the normal map of the entablature? Have a nice day!
For the nested instances part, is there a way to randomly distributed the object containing the nested instances? I have vegetation that contains instances of leaves and twigs and i need to distribute the vegetation randomly across a plane
Hi, I arrived here because a garden scene of mine, full of trees and bushes everywhere is slowly making my work painful - I am almost finished but I will redo all plants by instancing them. I really had them all separate objects, what a mess :D Thanks for the video!
Is the array modifier actually instancing? I was under the impression that it can't "instance" in the same way that other instancing works, where it actually references the original data. I do remember many times using the array modifier and it lagging out my PC
Hello, I use the plane as an instancing object in order to easily place instances according to my needs (in this case, a simple straight array). You could certainly create and place instances manually, but I think that's unnecessarily convoluted.
I'm new to blender so i wanted to ask how do you apply this one material to all those separate objects to manipulate material randomization of a whole scene ? Hope it makes any sense, cause i dont even know how to formulate a question. Thanks in advance!
It creates an instance on each face of the parent object. It doesn't consume resources because with instances you are not copying also the underlying data of the original object over and over (as you would do instead with the normal shift-d duplicate)
im so sorry but as a noob i fail to understand what you did more than using an array modifier? Cant i just combine the different parts and use array mod? the geometry nodes part and material part i understood but not the plane instance thing.
Hello, the point is that in this way you are not copying over and over the data of the original mesh but only that of the instancing object (which is minimum in comparison)
@@hbitproject grazie a te, l'accento italiano e' difficile da togliere o camuffare ! cmq se guardi ( non tutto ovviamente ) il video che ho postato l'altro ieri, dove ho ricreato una scena di spiderman tutta in blender, vedi dove mi sarebbe servito questo tuo tutorial ! molto bello davvero
@@hbitproject grazie davvero! Considerando che non sono un modellatore e da un cubo ho tirato fuori il post office eheh. Grazie davvero... Non vedo l'ora di provare la tua tecnica su un'altro progetto!
Thank you mate. To be honest I was a bit late to the game, as I only discovered this passion a couple of years ago. But since then, I surely spent countless hours on it (don't know for sure, but more than a thousand easily).
@@hbitproject Yeah, man, that's about how long it's going to take me to get through your lesson on the arch. 😂 Old computer, old brain... I started playing with 3dMax back in 1998, and I was already 40 years old then. 🤦♂
@@hbitproject I see, also I wonder if you would consider trying to make gothic styled arches like the ones used in cathedrals on the exterior. I don't know how different making something like that would be for you to make but I would be very happy if you did that.
I have tried several tutorials from this guy and this is the first channel I can not learn anything from, I don't know what it is about his videos but I understand absolutely nothing from him

subbed! thank you this was so useful.
Nice video keep it up:)
Just curious why parent to a plane (as opposed to an empty)? Love your videos - thank you for sharing this stuff.
Actually you could even use a single vertex and choose that as the instancing method. I prefer to use planes because they are easier to spot in the viewport when needed, but it is just down to personal preferences I guess 👍
You can not use modifiers (i.e. array modifier) on empty object.
But you cannot edit or modify an instance. Right? You can only change a material or texture?
You can turn any instance into a real mesh (if you don't than no, you cannot edit it)
@@hbitproject yeah, I guess that's the point. You get a copy but w/o having real polygons stored in the database to keep track of. Just a reference to that original data plus any new transforms I suppose. Well, thanks!
Brilliant! That helps a lot with my system. Thank you so much!

Thank you! That's an interesting piece, I may give it a try ;)
Thank you sir, you are an awesome teacher. Much appreciated, i learnt alot about instancing and texturing instances, that i wish i knew long ago
Hey bro, you're going places. I like your work and I like your English. If you use geometry nodes you'll be next level. So don't do it, I don't need competition.
I don't have Mesh MAchine, please tell me where I can find the Mesh to Instances command. Should I just use the ALT D command?
Thanks.
Im hypnotised with the soundtrack! Can you reveal it?

Very cool way to instance complex models. Thanks!
Looking good! Thanks for the helpful tutorial!
Wonderful tutorial. Many thanks.

Glad it helped 👍. It would be really useful to have a "make instance" checkbox in the array modifier to begin with!

Amazing! Super usefull.

Thank you! You can also use ALT-D for quick instancing if you don't need very specific patterns 👍
keep it up, thanks for the tutorials!

Yes it does. Try this: enable the statistics in the overlay panel and keep an eye on the poly count as you increase the number of iterations.
always amazing video
why do you have to use a plane instead of the actual geometry? thx
Hello, I use the plane as an instancing object in order to easily place instances according to my needs (in this case, a simple straight array). You could certainly create and place instances manually, but I think that's unnecessarily convoluted.
And subscribed
I'm new to blender so i wanted to ask how do you apply this one material to all those separate objects to manipulate material randomization of a whole scene ? Hope it makes any sense, cause i dont even know how to formulate a question. Thanks in advance!
You can go in the "layers" panel (right side of the UI), scroll down to the overrides and just select the material you want to use. Hope it helps!
@@hbitproject thank you! At first i didnt notice this part in the video, now it works ❤
beautiful
so what does the option "instancing" actually do? like what happens when i put it on faces and why does it not consume performance?
It creates an instance on each face of the parent object. It doesn't consume resources because with instances you are not copying also the underlying data of the original object over and over (as you would do instead with the normal shift-d duplicate)
@@hbitproject ah okay ty
Are you selling the assets lol
Hello, I'm working on a pack to be released sooner or later 👍
Smart👍
woaw !
im so sorry but as a noob i fail to understand what you did more than using an array modifier? Cant i just combine the different parts and use array mod? the geometry nodes part and material part i understood but not the plane instance thing.
Hello, the point is that in this way you are not copying over and over the data of the original mesh but only that of the instancing object (which is minimum in comparison)
@@hbitproject isnt this the same as using ALT+D or just regular array with instancing?
@@aeonbreak4728 doesn't alt d create more objects? The point is that you don't create more objects than necessary so u save memory space.
nice 👍
Great tutorial as usual
