2:54 If you are using blender 4.0, don't worry about the mask not showing. Its only a problem if the "delete geometry" node has no effect. (its the next one he uses after.) He also connects attributes "color" to material output's "volume" also, if you are having problems with an inverted shield, (with it surrounding the empty instead of the empty activating it) Go to object info in the geometry nodes and switch it from "Original" to "relative".
Very cool tutorial, I do agree with the top comment that adding a bit more time onto the video could help the viewer a lot. Some parts are fast and get a little confusing to understand the mechanics. Your explanations are very helpful
Great tutorial! The only advice would be to do the same content over 15 mins rather than 10 mins, so it has more time to sink in while you are going thru. The explanations were really clever though, so keep on doing these please!
being told to get the 3.1 or newer would have been quite useful at the start not in the middle of the tutorial. Still a great effect that i love thanks!
I usually never comment. But I just want you to know that you have helped me so much today. Not only are you generous enough and so kind to share this valuable information you have, but also sharing the project files to save peoples time on top of helping them is beyond beautiful. From the bottom of my heart. Thank You!
i m not talk much in comment usually i m just back from a another tuto from nearh geo node and he make me run from geonode i dont understand and i see so complicated but you in this video you lock me a lot of point and much cleaner understanding thank you sooooo much
This is a good tutorial, I was able to learn the principles of the geometry node setup and change the shield to fit my purposes (a Kung Fu scene with energy manipulation). You did pretty good job of explaining the underlying principles.
Thanks for sharing the file of this gorgeous effect! I will have fun with it. And you gained a new follower since you got a nice compressed style. See ya along the way.
At 2:51 what the hell do you do to get the mask to be applied, inside the shader window I carnt see what you are doing and my attribute does not link up to anything so the black mask is not applied??? YOu zoom in at the worst time
the problem is in the location of empty and/or force field. Try to change distance to some great numbers - then you should get black color and find right value eventually. Solution basically in applying location to those objects, thou dont figure out exactly how to do it right
How can I move the whole setup, caus it takes all the coordinates from origin... When I try to move the setup, I can't work with relative coordinates but the world coordinates take the action.. how to solve ot
great explanation and a very cool effect! are you going to do videos on how you used this to get the "body armor" effects like in the intro? can you just shrink-wrap this stuff to a model and go nuts? hahah
I'm having a bit of trouble at 2:27 where you add the math > value node... I'm on Blender 3.1.0 Beta but can't find the node! Has something changed since you uploaded the video?
Ok, I came back to this after 4 months of learning Blender and I was able to finally follow it without issues. c: How would you apply this effect to anything that is not an ico sphere? like you have in your intro video going over that person?
I am not sure about that, It will be a completely different process. I don't think there is an easy and efficiant way to bring geometry node assets to ue5 yet.
change ico sphere node for object info, add there your object, connect it to triangulate bode and continue with dual mesh node, now scale it a bit so it sits on top of your object and u're done
No matter how many times I look around in blender or on the net I can't seem to find Dual mesh for some reason despite already having Blender 3.1, could anyone explain to me what is missing I had a number of missing features that prevent me from following along those tutorials.
@@fyklion5508 same, it always deletes the whole sphere, no matter what I do. He speeds up through the explanations too damn fast to understand as a beginner
@@RobynLtW Even as a non beginner Im so confused he does not explain it well enough and the zoom on the screen does not help the matter I carnt see what he is doing inside the shading window...
uh I know this is 2 years but u went to fast on the tutorial im a new guy on blender I need to go slow and steady since I still don't know the mechanics

THANK YOU MAN !!
I HAVE WATCHED MANY TUTORIALS LIKE THIS BUT I HAVE NEVER LEARNT LIKE LIKE , YOU'RE AN AMAZING TEACHER < WOW
THANKS A LOT
Impressive! I did a Shield Tutorial for 3DS Max and After Effects a while back, but it wasn't quite as good-looking as this. Nice job!
This is a good tutorial, I was able to learn the principles of the geometry node setup and change the shield to fit my purposes (a Kung Fu scene with energy manipulation). You did pretty good job of explaining the underlying principles.
This is a splendid and sophisticated tutorial. it very easy and epic. Thanks alot
Amazing tutorial !!!!
I feel like I'm an Avengers.
Keep up the good work, this is an awesome Tutorial!
cant wait for the texture tutorial this is soo cool
Great stuff! Thank you for sharing!

what are you doing in the node editor at 2:54? I don't get black color on the object
the problem is in the location of empty and/or force field. Try to change distance to some great numbers - then you should get black color and find right value eventually. Solution basically in applying location to those objects, thou dont figure out exactly how to do it right
Ok, in object info just set "relative" instead of original, then find right distance again
Respect my g.
lol I just made the exact same shield yesterday and today I see the video
Awesome,!
Beast work!
AMAZING, THANKS A LOT

"One" means your time is up, so get lost! HAHAHA! That one got me.

awesome tutorials man. keep up the good work

In the intro how did you manage to get the nodes to cover a character like that?
Thank you!@@mdreamslk
Ok, I came back to this after 4 months of learning Blender and I was able to finally follow it without issues. c:
How would you apply this effect to anything that is not an ico sphere? like you have in your intro video going over that person?
@@mdreamslk sweet, Ty!
I cant wait for part 2.......😅
can this method integrate with particles instead of a simple empty? so you could haeve the bubble react to multiple weapon/bolt hits?
great stuff! how do you add it to characters with rigging?
Nice!
Excuse me pls what did you connect the attribute node to
Where you learn this things can you tell me please
Exactly how do I separate the colors between the two, because both remain the same color.
How would I get this to work in unreal engine?
I am not sure about that, It will be a completely different process. I don't think there is an easy and efficiant way to bring geometry node assets to ue5 yet.
Question, how do you change the color of the shield? I want to green screen it for a project.
will you make a texture tutorial?
Lovely. I subscribed your channel.
Please re do that effect around a shape with irregular contours like an arm or leg. Everyone works on a sphere.
change ico sphere node for object info, add there your object, connect it to triangulate bode and continue with dual mesh node, now scale it a bit so it sits on top of your object and u're done
@@F3rd0 this does not work. can you explain in more detail?
@@F3rd0 my mesh just disappears
No matter how many times I look around in blender or on the net I can't seem to find Dual mesh for some reason despite already having Blender 3.1, could anyone explain to me what is missing I had a number of missing features that prevent me from following along those tutorials.

2:50 what are you doing in the shade editor here?
@@mdreamslk what are you plugging the attribute node into in the shader editor?
Let's goooo!!! Nice!!!
Bookmark - 6:50
You can say what you wrote on the right in 2:40
How to add colours
I’m having trouble with 0:53 how do I cut them in half
Hold control, hold right click, and draw a line
At 2.46 minutes, all my values on the disk are 0 and when I did what you did in the shading, it gave the whole region black.
I tried about 15 times but it didn't work

one tip i have is to make your voice a bit clearer, or just get a better mic?
More tutorial
02:56 not coming 😢
Unfortunate that your tutorial started well then just turned into a convoluted zhitshow... I enjoyed it but couldn't learn jack-squat
My guy- you are moving WAY too fast. Slow down, PLEASE, especially after the 2 minute mark. I slowed it down and stil lcan't keep up
don`t work
YO! Make it slower.
BRO EXPLAIN IT AND DON'T SCROLL EVERYWHERE BEFORE YOU DON'T DO IT!!!!!😡😠😠😡😢😤

Slooooooooooooooooooooo down dude..... Tutorials are about helping people learn. Not showing off your skills as to how fast you can do things...
Your accent is weird! Indian but trying so hard to not sound Indian xD Flaunt it brother! Good tutorial though
That's kinda rude
@@mdreamslk dont be sorry, i think the original comment was rude, don't listen to him brother
