Hey everybody! So I discovered that the random value setup in the tutorial actually assigns a random value on every frame, not sure how I missed this but if you use the geometry node setup here: imgur.com/gallery/14a1bFy instead it’ll properly assign each spline with a consistent random value for the whole scene. Hope you guys find this useful and if anyone figures out any neat tricks you can do with this then please do comment them below!
Hooooo... THANKS!!!!! I was struggling to have this kind of effect..... and This Morning .. You are here!!!!! I'll try it right now, and let you know ( just so happy that I want to thank you before)😃🤗

Thx for the hint that in the latest release (10th december) the simulation doesn't work if you add the "Simulation Input" first. Nearly went crazy and then I found your tutorial. Big thanks!
thanks a lot especially for 1:30! I have spent a lot of time to understand why In/Output doenst work together! now we know it! Thanks! First - output and then input :)))
It still a little bit confusing to me to store attribute and use it earlier in the tree.. But i'm thinks that this attribute needs to be changed every frame thats why people do that :| And for split window you can also use the "Cross" icon. when you position your cursor in the corner of window you can just directly pull out new one :D I think that is more convinient Also thanks for another Tutorial!
Ya, storing the attribute is an operation just like the set position or extrude mesh nodes. The simulation nodes are definitely very unique addition to geometry nodes (which is part of why they’re so cool) so it’s been a learning curve for me as well. Also good tip on the window splitting!
Hi Logan, great videos! I wondered if there is a way to initialize particles(points) like giving each one an inital value outside the loop like a interger value for the birthframe?
Thank you so much! The "Set ID" setup in the video actually assigns each point with it's spawn frame (the ID value for each point is stored then as such), I don't think there's a way to do this outside of the simulation nodes. I've also been trying to figure out how to assign each spline with a spawn frame but so far no luck
@@AlaskanFX Hey Logan, sorry to bother you with another question, but there not so many people with sim geo node knowledge right now! ;) My Question: I have not found any way to render Motion Blur so far with moving geo nodes. Have you found one?
@@DasDritteD Not a bother at all! I don’t think motion blur is compatible with simulation nodes yet unfortunately but I’d bet money that that’ll be coming in a future update
This is really cool! How would you go about deleting a particle after a certain lifetime or length? My renders slow to a crawl after a few hundred frames as the number of particles becomes so high... I tried a couple of things with the delete geometry, but I'm not sure how you'd select the instances that are X frames old, or X distance away...
Thanks! If you check out my other videos on using simulation nodes I actually have a system for deleting particles based on their age that you can use for this too
@@AlaskanFX Hi! Any chance you can make a set up that fades out the system and deletes it, rather than having it poof out of existence with the other method you have?
Hello there love the tutorial. I do want to ask if you could help describe this kind of tracing behaviour: th-cam.com/video/BgPfAE9Epek/w-d-xo.html It trails and curve along the particle movement.

How did you included imgur link in YT comments? Is this creators perk or they finaly stoped this dumb policy?

@@genesis2303 ahh, good to know. Thanks for the info!

I really enjoy your tutorials, they've been invaluable in helping me get used to geometry nodes. Greetings from Anchorage!
Glad you like them! And love seeing a fellow Alaskan Blender user!
what an experience to watch😎🤯
hooooooo THANKS alot...... I'm exactly trying to have this kind off effect ....and I was struggling .....LOVE YOU
Glad I could help!
Wow you really love geo nodes
thanks a lot especially for 1:30! I have spent a lot of time to understand why In/Output doenst work together! now we know it! Thanks! First - output and then input :)))
Glad it helped! Took me a bit to figure out what was going wrong too 😂
That's a nice effect! Thanx 4 the tut! :)

How would you turn this into a spiral effect?
Omg this is not a tree, this is a forest

Bro’s got that LHC shit going.💀
How do you do that thing where you, merge two of the lines together in the node tree? I don't know how to do that.
How do you add in junctions?
Shift + Right Click
Thanks.
yo make a tut on the animation in 0:13

Not quite sure how that works but I’ll take a longer look at the video and maybe see if I can figure out how to replicate it 👍
@@AlaskanFX Thak you. I might also try it.
@@gart2922 If you figure it out then let me know too! I'll make sure to credit you and Cartesian Caramel
@@AlaskanFX do you have any discord community group that I can join to share the project file?
Honestly… could’ve been better, wasn’t clear on what you had to do
