One cool thing I found was to change the curve tilt with the spline factor, so it twists a bit. Thanks a lot for the tutorial, Geometry Nodes are still quite intimidating for me, and this helped a lot!
That's some kind of magic 4 me. The huge thing is that it's all can be edited if needed at any time. Amazing. Just amazing. Gr8 work! + subscription, of course 👍
7:46 i just want to point out, that you actually don´t need that switch procedure. You can extrude in negative values. it's just that slider cant be defaulty moved to negative by mouse, but you can tipe it manually. That way you overwrite minimal slider value to the one you tiped and can move it by mouse then. Still great tutorial thought.
Hi Michal! Thank you very much for your feedback! Yes, you’re absolutely correct ) I just thought that it was a great opportunity to show flip faces, face orientation and switch functionality) I hope I didn’t confuse anyone with this 😊
Thank you so much for this amazing pedagogical tutorial. I learned a lot. This is impressive what geometryNode can brings and how it saves times. I have a suggestion : i wanted to make staggered suckers, to make the tentacles more realistic. So i added a "triangulate node" to the suckers meshe (before the "dual mesh" which is before the first extrude Mesh node) . And... it works :D ! THANK YOU SO MUCH !
Just wonderful use of geo nodes. Very clear explanation, super easy to follow. One of the best tutorials with geo nodes I've seen on TH-cam. Congrats and keep up, you've got yourself a fan and a subscriber
It's official, I don't know shit about geometry nodes but this video gets me more confident. How do people even know what to search for when they know they need a particular node? I love this video you made, it's super! Really; it's also the one I picked as my first to watch all the way through. But did you bring knowledge from another software into this? GeoNodes are incredibly powerful but very intimidating. Much appreciation for your clear and direct lesson!
@HelloHiHola Thank you very much for the feedback! I'm very happy to hear that! ;) Regarding the nodes - it is just the matter of time and experiments. Some things you can find in blender documentation , some of them in others tutorials and trying to get the most of them ;) Blender is the only software that I use for 3D modeling ) However, I'm familiar with a few game engines and have a very basic programming skills which helps in problem solving. And that's about it) I'm working on a new tutorial right now, with map ranges and fields in Geometry Nodes - well that was really cool to investigate and experiment with. Hope to upload it within the next few days.
i know you have a Download link but i found it Satisfying to just Rebuild it and understand it. Wow i discover soo many new stuff about Geometry nodes. Such OP your making me want to Learn it now ;-; , and + thats a interesting way of making Textures Using a Mix Node + Texture Node never though about that. Still learning about Texture nodes and ways to get looks that i want. (already know the basics of Textures, but i haven't discover how to mix them Properly yet :P getting there Slowly but surely).
Thank you so much for the feedback! It makes me so happy to see that this format and process helps to improve blender skills! ) This is very inspiring!
Great video. I got lost at 6:30.. Did you just create a new set of nodes off to the side so you could copy/paste as needed, or create an entire new set of nodes, or....? Thanks for a quality video. I didn't mind the3 music, as I used closed captions and slowed the speed down a notch.
Hey! Thanks for the comment! Not sure about exact tutorial, but you can look into Geometry proximity node and how to use it. In addition, you can also check Demo file on Blender website (www.blender.org/download/demo-files/). Th Halloween Spider project in particular. I think this is something you're looking for.
Thanks for the feedback and great question! For some reason, negative values are supported only with keyboard input, at least in 3.1.2. So, I considered it an opportunity to introduce flip faces node and face orientation which is a common issue when texturing. But yes, negative scale would be easier 😊
Amazing tutuorial. I learned a lot from this video. How would you go about extruding a row, instead of a column? I'm trying to use this to make horns like rams and antelope have. What's the best way to go about doing this?
Thank you very much for the feedback! To extrude faces in a column, you just need to make a selection of the points (index and compare nodes) of a curve line (the one that builds your geometry vertically) and plug that into selection of the extrude node. However, to achieve that twisted shape you were talking about, you may try a bit different approach: for the Profile Curve -> instead of using a circle, try using Star and Fillet Curve node to cut the corners of that star. After converting curve to mesh - use Set Position node and rotate each row of the mesh by a small degree based on the index of the Curve Line on z axis with Vector Rotate node (simply multiply Index by a degree). I'm currently working on a video with a lot of twisting, displacement and positioning, hope to upload it soon.;)
Mastery of nodes. Mind boggling
Thanks for the feedback!
Never seen nodes explained so easily before, now I understand them
Thank you very much for the feedback! 😃
literally the most "for academic purposes" video ever
😁
A bit of a whoosh, but what do you mean?
@@thoracistentacle hentai my good sir.
I was looking for an easy to follow tutorial forever. This is exactly what I need. Thank you
Thank you so much for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the tutorial!
This is incredible man, can't wait to try this, such a thorough explanation, can't wait to see more from you
Thank you very much for the feedback! I hope to release new video pretty soon! 😊
I've been using Blender for nearly two decades. I've never got into geo nodes and this is a great introduction. Thanks!
Thank you so much for the feedback!
This video is fantastic, as a beginner, I had no clue you could do so much with just geometry nodes!
Thanks for the feedback! I'm so glad you enjoyed it 😃
Very straight forward and cogent. I usually find Geometry Nodes to be hard to approach, but this made it very clear.
Thank you very much for the feedback! I’m glad it helps 😊
Wow that is really cool! 👍
😃Thank you very much!
This video inspired me to develop a method for something similar but with chains. Its really cool!
Thanks for the feedback! I would love to see what you came up with ;)
thanks, these will be really helpful in the wrong hands, my hands.
😆
One of the best tutorials explaining Geometry Nodes I've seen. Please keep uploading them 🤩
Thank you very much for the feedback! Working on a new vid))
🤩🤩🤩
I dig this format, fast but dense.
😀Thank you so much!
Great tutorial. Clear, consice and straight to the point.

Thank you very much for the feedback!
Instead of the double flip faces, you can make the offset scale negative
Yep!) That is an easier option)
Genius! Easy understandable tutorial. I like the music and the pace. Thank you!
Thank you very much for the feedback and for watching! ;)
Learned many things about nodes. Thank you for this very good tuto.
Thank you for your feedback! I’m happy to be helpful 😊
Gosh, using geometry nodes feels like drawing with mathematical graphs instead of moving your hand with a pen. Thank you for your wonderful tutorial!
Absolutely! That is the best description of what geometry nodes are 😃 Thank you so much for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the tut ☺
That was so cool! got stuck watching instead of going to bed XD
😁 Thank you so much for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback! I’ve created a node group there with Ctrl+G. A very convenient way of handling repetitive nodes sets)
Loved it :) Thank you very much!
Thank you very much for the feedback!))
Damn man i really surprised you can extrude in geometry nodes and faces is really clear damn you so good man thanks 👍👍
And thank you so much for the feedback!! 😊😊
Nice tutorial...thanks.
Thank you very much for the feedback! ;)
wow, awesome
what would be a good tutorial to watch on how to add these procedural tentacles to a another project like to make a octopus or something?

WTF? Andrew price voice AI making tutorials? Thats so cool!
😂 well that’s a compliment) thanks!
nice man thanks!

8:23 But why use the "flip faces" & "switch" nodes when you can just use a negative Scale offset?

So, I considered it an opportunity to introduce flip faces node and face orientation which is a common issue when texturing. But yes, negative scale would be easier 😊
Brilliant workflow mate! I ended up purchasing your project file when you lost me at 6:42 with that screen jump. You deserve the purchase though 😃
Hey! Thank you so much for watching, commenting, and getting the project file! Hope you've figured out the workflow! ☺
