Anyone watching this with blender 2.8: instead of "copy from active" to set rigid body settings, hit F3 and type "rigid" then click "copy rigid body settings" Edit: Hannibal Chow mentioned "2.8 go to object tab in the top right next to the add button scroll down to rigid body all options there." for those of you who would rather not use hotkeys.
For people who have problem with detaching ball. Before creating sphere you should SELECT THE BOTTOM CHAIN IN EDIT MODE AND THEN CREATE THE SPHERE, so in that case it will be the same object and won't fall apart when you animate.
I love your style of teaching because instead of going, "do this or else this will happen" you let the mistakes happen then and show people how to fix them.
Yeah, I'm over here like "fuck it. I'm downgrading". I literally can't figure out how to switch from "render result" to the actual thing in the "Rendering" tab :(
at 1:34. The object tools panel has been changed and moved to the Physics tab located at the left side of the blender UI. In the [Physics] tab you will locate the [Objects Tools] panel and under it is the [Copy from Active].
4:46 In the most recent version of blender you have to press the ''.'' button to open a pie selector for the pivot point. Than select the 3D cursor as the pivot point, rotate and everything should be a bliss
Anyone who has the issue I had with the 3D cursor not working. Select the top chain, then while holding shift select the rest of the ball and chains, after that press period or “.” Like the initial comment said, but I clicked “active element”. This is because the first chain you selected is considered active, so when you select everything else and click active element you are setting the top chain as the pivot point.
I really like this quick tutorial. More of these would be greatly appreciated. It's a great way to teach someone the basics of something they don't know how to use.
If you have the issue in 2.9 that the chains are just falling through the top one: Enable Animated on the top one (Dynamic doesn't matter). If it's stil not working, apply the scale of all objects (Ctr + A -> Scale)
Thank you! For whatever reason I ran through the tutorial yesterday and then again today... and for whatever reason his way worked yesterday but not today. Your way fixed it!
Just created my first wrecking ball animation in 2.8, thanks to this tutorial. I went for three wrecking balls to clear more cubes from my pile. Next I get to play around with the materials. Thank you for the tutorial, Andrew. It's a lot of fun, and very cathartic watching all those cubes go everywhere.
@Jake Jannone I'm not sure what you're doing wrong. My suggestion would be to make sure you have the appropriate rigid body physics on your links, planes, and cubes.
I have been to lazy to learn Blender because I know it took a while to learn how to use Photoshop and Unity, But when I saw your channel I really got inspired of how easy you make it look and you explain so clear! Thank you!!
Wow man! You've been doing this since 2014?!! I am just starting to get into this it feels pretty intimidating learning from someone who's been at this for almost a decade!
Short tutorials are good for little experiments, but the real learning happens in the longer ones. Boring or not, the extra content is what makes you learn the intricacy of the program. I will be the one to argue for not getting rid of in depth videos. I am sure that after a few dozen short ones, those users will long for videos that do more than just scratch the surface.
So the ideal is to make long tutorials for begginers and short quick tutorials for intermediates and advanced users... I believe that begginers are well served with content... just go to Blender Cookie or even you tube with "Blender Begginers" and you'll have a lot to chose from... Now for advanced users with solutions for complex tasks we don't have many options...
It's not that i dont enjoy long tuts. They're awesome, but it's nice to have a short one every little while just to keep us motivated while we wait for part2. I mean Andrew's tutorials that are in parts can had two weeks or so in between. When you're new, you either use those two weeks to polish up your skills or look for someone else's tut.
For people stuck at 4:40 at the cursor rotation. At blender 2.8/91+ it is in the upper middle section of the viewport. Right side of "Global". Set it to cursor and you should get it to rotate properly.
Hello, I love this channel and the content it posts. Now, I’m sure I’m not the only one here who is a complete beginner to 3D editing. It is quite a bit difficult for me to keep up with the speed in which you do the tutorial. Sometimes you’ll hit an important button that you don’t mention and it’ll mess up my whole project making me watch your 30 minute video very slowly and meticulously not to miss any button you press or key you hit. I don’t think it will hurt anyone to go a little slower in your tutorials. Thank you!
Great tutorial Andrew! would love to know how you textured everything. Especially how to apply slightly different textures to the boxes. It seems like they're applied randomly because i can't see any patterns
There are more tutorials on this in Blender Guru's tutorials. Here are some interesting Blender tutorials too: th-cam.com/channels/FLJeQgsFK-Xd0-ZuTpcjVA.html
How do I do 4:15 with the newer version of blender Edit: I figured it out just select everything, right click, then press set origin: origin to geometry
when he changes perspective in 0.1 seconds already into wireframe view and selects all boxes and I sit there for a while scratching my head how to select the inner boxes lmfao.
2:30 in and you solved my biggest problem!!! I made a chain and couldn't figure out for the life of me why it kept exploding into pieces and just being a general pain in the ass. But now I realize that I made it (and all objects in my scene) too small. THANK YOU!
Chain is breaking, I have increased "Steps by Seconds" and "Solver Iterations", changed the mass, does not help, after two seconds some of the chain links just passing through each other
Because im now using blender 2.8, things are in different locations, such as the rigid body toolbar. Took me a few minutes to find it, but im learning the updated blender fast
Actually, my question was whether or not we could do this in cycles....which I guess we still can't. I got to the 2nd part of the tutorial and he said to render in Blender Render. Thanks for being in Cycles mode for the whole 1st tutorial...
To use small or fast objects, increase "Steps per second" in the "Rigid Body World" tab to something higher than sixty (500-1000). It determines the "granularity" of the simulation, that is, the time increments between simulation steps. If it's too low, an object may pass through another object without the simulator noticing, because they never intersect. If you use small objects, time-steps need to be small, too. That means many steps per second. This will eliminate nasty fiddling with the timescale to get it somewhat right.
Thanks for the great tutorial! I've worked with a lot of rigid body simulations in blender, but you helped me figure out some of my age-long problems with it! Awesome Job!
I CAME IN LIKE A WRECING BALL!!!!!!! I NEVER HIT SO HARD IN LOVE ALL I WANTED WAS TO BREAK YOUR WALLS ALL YOU EVER DID WAS WRECK ME YEAH YOU YOU WRECK ME
How did you make the wrecking ball stick to the chain? I can't make them stay together. The ball always falls to the ground which makes sense of course. I tried to follow the key presses but had no luck so far. Thanks!
For those using Blender 2.8 and cannot find the "COPY FROM ACTIVE" or the RIGID BODY TOOLS: you can find it in the Object menu. Just go to the Object menu, scroll down to Rigid Body sub-menu and you'll find the Copy from Active option right there. I'm using the Blender 2.8 version released on Feb 22, I don't know if this option was available in the earlier beta versions.
@Sunil Dev Dhakal maybe u should use 'Copy from Active', actually try starting over (with new file), and follow the video. If you get the same problem, come back here.
Thanks Just did this in Blender 2.8 and it worked really well. Had to hunt for the rigid body settings but found them in the object drop down - Rigid Body.
Nice! Did you just uncheck the dynamics on the upper chain link? When I do this the rest of the chain still falls through. Is there something I'm missing in 2.8? Also the chain explodes, when it reaches the ground altough I increased the size and weight.
Nice tutorial! Instead of using COPY FROM ACTIVE thingy, you can just set the first link to be a 'mesh collider' and then copy links from there...all will be setup as 'mesh collision'. Maybe do the texture as well before copying first link? You ROCK Andrew!
you probably found ur answer since its been 2 yrs.. but maybe for the rest who reads this, it could be changen in scene > rigid body cache and change the end frame.. it works for me tho :D
For anyone wondering about the pivot point. For Blender 2.8 using the . (period/fullstop) shortcut key activates the Pivot Point pie or wheel menu instead of switching to 3D Cursor as per previous versions of Blender.

Watching this for the first time is like magic... I mostly mean how you made the chain. I'm not a graphic designer so it's just amazing to me.

Always has been until they released this ugly 2.8
Brilliant tutorial! Moved at a great pace and showed me why my simulations never worked; scale... Haha. Have a great one!
People do the duplication of the links IN OBJECT MODE! Else you end up with the chain being a single object!

Try slowing down the video in the settings to .5 speed and also turning on the subtitles which is pretty cool !

did you ever figure this out?
When i try rotating the chain completely, it rotates separately every piece. HELP
Under the Texture Paint you will see a ball with a cross and a dot. Press on it and choose 3d cursor.
Chain links disconnect among other issues in 2.8.
Edit: still works fine in 2.79 tho !
for anyone having trouble with your ball connecting to the chain just select both and go to object left top than to rigid body an d connect

+mt2oo8 just figured it out, its in the physics tab on the left in cycles
+mt2oo8 update your blender
+Neeraj vegad No, downgrade because this is an old tutorial.
it's under physics vertical tab
wonder....i like the way you teach, I'm just beginner in blender and doing this in 2.91, awesome, it works fantastic. love you!
For some reason I can't select a single link. I can only select two at a time. How do I fix that?
+Mark Snider same here, I was wondering why, thanks for the tip
you may have been duplicating the chain in edit mode. do it in object mode.
I deleted everything als you das but now my Computer doesnt turn on now
Smow Alarmmacher you idiot 😂 👍👍👍
So how did you write this comment
You can access youtube on your phone/tablet
as well as laptop
and pretty much anything else
+Logan Fawcette that's genius i didn't know that thanks dude ! hhh just kidding ro
Smow Alarmmacher lol funny that you could comment
For some reason the ball wont stay on the chain. D:
+Callapa2 Gaming Wait i joined the UV sphere with the chain link and set the ball to box and it worked.
+Callapa2 Gaming I mean i set it to mesh.
when you have selected the last chain link, go into edit mode and press shift + a, and add a ball
You are the best in BLENDER. I'm really interested in your tutorial method.
Almost there still learning. After Watching your tutorial, it inspired me to continue learning in getting the use of blender, sometimes I get confuse because of what I have download is the new version of blender so the functions are place quite different from your video.. all in all I really like the video it's easy to learn and understand. And the best part is I can see the key functions you input so learning is fun and very informative.. Hope one day I can be a great CG Designer. Hope you continue posting new videos of tutorials. Thank You Andrew Price.
haha awesome, but now we'll have so much more rigid body simulations on youtube! lol as if we didn't have enough already! lol
I can't succed in rotating the chain completely, it rotates separately every piece
Make sure you have "3d Cursor" selected in pivot point found down by the timeline
@@fluffed_coyote1487 Hello! Can you please tell me how to rotate the chain? So the last chain ring woudn't rotate? Whe I try to rotate it my whole chain rotates. I use Blender 2.82
@@happytraveller559 I'm not sure. I haven't really gotten used to 2.8 yet. Sorry
Update for blender 2.8 !!
It really is the best video in the world, thanks to Blender Guru, I have made my first rigid body object animation... and it was very good:)
Can't find Rigid Body Tools in 2.80 alpha 2 :(
