Thank you so much for this!! Didnt know about basically any of the maps other than normals! Taught me a lot!!

Thank you for this clear explanation, I am a beginner and this was very helpful.

Thank you for this awesome detailed Video

Thanks for these concise and clear explanations of the different texture maps, they all make much more sense to me now

Very useful and visually exemplified, thanks!

Thank you for the wonderful explanations, Christina! As others already mentioned, showing the effects "live" really makes them understandable. I tried to explain the difference of the effects of bump map vs. normal map to a friend working in Blender, but this shows it so much better :) Maybe you could mention how the normal mapping actually works in that the colors give each pixel a vector direction where red influences the X, green the Y and blue the Z direction.

Thank you very much for watching and your comment. I was thinking about mentioning the colors by axis, but then I would also have had to explain the difference between DirectX and OpenGL normals (y is flipped) and I thought that would be just confusing for the users, let alone all the mixed colors for angles inbetween the axis.

Very, very, very good explanation!!! Thank you!!!

Amazing video! Great explanation! Subscribed! Thank you!

Thank for the explanation. It helps me to understand more.

That was a wonderful video Thanks for explaining everything so simply thank you.

Very well explained, thanks!

Brilliant video! Thanks a million for the explanation!

Thank for sharing that, very nice explained .

Great explanation. I already knew most of this but I have been using blender for 20 years now and it took me a LONG time before I realized the difference between these three maps. But you gave a great explanation for beginners I wish I had seen this 20 years ago when I was first starting with 3d software. It would have solved a lot of confusion.

all channels can be used interchangeably, when they derive from a photo. just play with photoshop to generate them with the special tool or manually for the advanced and tweak your mixing in your 3D software. when they come from 3D scanned objects though, each channel represents a true property of the real texrure, so it is better to use them correctly. quality 3D scans use photgrammetey or laser scanners combined with multiple lights sources that accurately capture all texture and gloss. very nice tutorial, and wonderful voice :)

I didnt know the difference between bump and normal is that exreme. Thank you!

Very good!Thanks!

thanks for developping

Thank you for the clear explaination. I understood displacement but I never really got bump and height maps, particularly whether they should be used together or not with mixes in blender. Hate maps have entered my vocabulary :)

Excellent, as always, Christina. It's been a good idea, because I think, like you, that explaining this in a chat is very difficult. I keep watching Mr Versluis live, but without entering the chat. One thing, tell him that to change the color of some material he likes, something that happened in the last live shows, just go into the nodes and add one of Hue-Saturation from the Color section to his diffuse texture. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Greetings and apologies for the mistakes : ^ )

Thank you so much for watching and commenting, It is my fault, because I asked him to stay away from the nodes so it doesn't get a mess again during the stream like the day before. I hope you were not offended. If that is the reason you stay away from the chat, I am really sorry, Marcos :-( Please join us again, you gave great tips. And sure, I will tell him that. There is nothing to apologize for, your English is great! The weekend isn't long anymore, but have a nice sunday and a great week!

Marcos! Tell me more about the Hue/Saturation node, why should I change the hue/saturation? Glad to hear you’re watching the streams, I’ll give you a shout out next time ;-) Always nice to hear from you!

@@WPguru Hi, Jay. If I remember correctly, in one of the videos you didn't use a texture you liked from the Extreme PBR addon because it didn't match the color you were looking for. The solution is simple enough, I leave a one minute video that I hope will clarify what I wanted to say. Sorry about the video quality, my laptop is quite old. And apologies for my English too.

Hi Christina. Thanks for another informative tutorial. Quick tip. 10:10 The word "height" is pronounced to sound like "kite", and not "kate".

Thanks for watching and your comment. Yepp, I learned that meanwhile, but thanks. For me as a German it was kind of logical that height is pronounced the same as eight, weight etc. But now I know, that they aren't hate maps :D I am just getting back into making tutorials, and in the 3 already recorded I pronounced it correct. :-)

@@ChristinaMcKay hey that's awesome. I am the worst at saying wurst so... I'm glad I found your channel today. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for summary, I had hard time to figure out what exactly 'map' is. Same map in different name.. Just too much, I really thought there are infinite number of map..

I didn't get it, I for example have plane 1 polygon, I need to apply normal and height to it, but there's not enough geometry for displacement to work, although in substance painter it looks OK. What is it all about?

I explained that you have to have a highly subdivided mesh to use the displacement. You can use the option in Substance but that doesn't divide your real mesh. Although you can bake the normal map and then use it on a low poly mesh, or even one face, that doesn't work with the displacement. The displacement really deforms the mesh. If you only have one face, there is nothing that can be deformed. Thanks for watching and your comment.

esta bebita explica muy bien

why i don't have normal bump optio?? i even don't have standard map option. i have general map instead of standard map and it doesn't have normal map. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy???????? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I wish it would be in german 😀

I don't understand why use displacement map when you can't use it on low poly mesh? instead of that we could use high poly mesh directly with all details.

You use normal maps on low poly mesh iirc. You make a high poly version, add surface details, then bake into normal map and delete the high poly version. Then your low poly has high poly details
