This my 1st Arnold Tutorial, i had to took a nap to process this 11:18 minutes tutorial. Thank you.

Always wanted this. Followed the lee griggs tut to no end. Thanks!

Thanks for all the Arnold tutorials! You have no idea just how much I appreciate you guys for putting out all of this

So amazing looking. Beautiful stuff. Thanks!

So original. The coolest effect i've seen, big respect

Thank you so much for this! Love it!

Thank you so much for this tutorial dude! Been having so much fun with this technique!

Great tutorial, thank u

Thank you so much.

awesome thanks!

This guy's a God!!

Hey there. Do you have any tips on what those refinements and tweaks were to get this looking like you showed us at the start of the video? Those are the elements I'm most curious about. I think it's what makes the image super polished.

real cool!!!

Wow, thank you! Happy to be an Arnold user haha :D

We need this details with redshift c4d ?

AMAZING

Interesting. Thank you for making the tutorial. You can do the same idea in Houdini. Same idea but better control.

Love this... thanks for the share. How does one achieve, the like SSS glow transparency?

Thank you

Great!

The lesson is fire, and you can make a secret effect with standard renderer or physicak renderer. Thank!

First of all, ty for sharing this great technique. :) Second, is there any chance to connect the Voulme shader to a SSS Shader and shade this all in SSS like in your pictures ? Thanks a lot :)

Dont think you can just connect shaders to shaders in that way, you need to connect channel to channel, within each shader..

Yeh that would be good. You can download Substance materials (some are free) and import them into Arnold really easily. I got a pretty decent snow one. Still really tough to make snow look good tho!

Thank youuu! Can I animate the camera to ad some movement and if yes which camera should I animate???

Thanks for the tutorial! I've followed the instructions, but when I render through arnold I just have completely flat white object without any details - other object with regular material is rendering fine. Does someone have an idea how to fix this

very good

I wonder, because when I use vector map I can clearly see cutout (like some noise values goes rapidly to 0 over and below some y value). I've increased tangent and normal in y axis but it rather stretches it than give extra space to reduce or feather the cutout. Any ideas?

With all respect to Lee Griggs, but his tutorial was far more incomplete compared to this one. Like I tried to follow as he does on the Arnold guide but the final result is very messy and not at all as shown in the images. THIS is the one I was really looking for that gives much more control overall. Thank you Greyscalegorilla!

Excellent tut! Anything like this possible in redshift these days??

I would reeeeaaaaaalllly like to have the rest of the tutorial for this. That picture in the thumbnail has a lot more work done on it. Even looks like a vdb displacement. I really feel like this style really needs a vdb, from houdini or something... Does R23 have anything to get closer to that look? Also Am I missing something during the steps? My displacement only goes into a straight line and not on random vertically and horizontally EDIT: I decided to up the steps and BOOM that was the key. Steps is the most important part to get the details. That and the clipping on the shader. Also you will never get the nice look that Lee gets without using VDB files, unfortunately.

Hey great tutorial guys ! Having a problem though that I can't seem to google: After I set up a camera to be used for the camera projection and lock it, when I navigate around the editor the camera projection still updates as if the locked camera hasn't been set up. Any ideas ?

Can you keyframe that transformation with Arnold?

Hi, I followed this great tutorial in Maya and I had a lot of fun figuring out the different possibilitys of volume displacements. But I ran into a problem when I tried to blend the effect with the ramp node. I can't plug the camera projection output into the mix input of the layer rgba. I tried to find the solution for three days but it just doesn't work. It would be great if someone could point me in the right direction. Thank you in advance!

Please, oh please, this is so awesome, can we do that in Octane?

@shawnastrom

5 жыл бұрын

Some say so but I don't know as I don't use Octane but supposedly you can with the new Vectron feature in the latest version but would only support GPU shaders. So no C4D noises.

Really cool effect. Im new to C4D so theres a lot im trying work out. Im having issues with applying the noise to the volume, when i do it nothing changes in the IPR?

Make sure you have the volume padding higher than 0 in the mesh volume tag.

I've always been searchng for a Redshift version of this tutorial. Is it possible to create something similar in Redshift?

Great tutorial have tried the Arnold help version and getting further with your technique, But . . Any chance of a scene file, I can't get this quite right, especially the fall off, trying todo this on an older iMac and its so slow, so any help is appreciated.

Make sure you assign a seperate camera for the UVs remember the camera is projecting the UV coordinates. Maybe test the ramp setup with a simple sphere and standard shader to see how it works.

Thanks Shawn, I am getting something now, not sure what was wrong before . . .

I got a question... How do I get the render of vector displacement with Its alpha?

Hi, if I want it to spread in all directions (like an explosion), how do I do that? I really don't understand how vector map works. Been trying to figure this out for a few hours now...

who are winners giveaway ?

Could it be possible ot have the file to study? :( Thanks!!

I think that I've might done something wrong. After adding the texture image, I don't get any color. I've added a mars, orange/bron-ish image but it remains black and white. Help, maybe? :D

This is awesome, but i am struggling to get shadows in my Head-Mesh. Can someone help?

Interesting, could probably be done with new mesh builder in R20 with a vertex falloff , linear falloff. Smooth and some....I'm gonna try it now.

It's possible in blender cycles using a custom .osl shader. The only drawback is that these run unly on the CPU.

I tried to replicate this technique in Maya, everything went well but the aiVectorMap didn't give me the same result. Do you have any idea ? Does it have something to do with different axis in C4D and Maya ?

is there one for maya still somewhere? lee grigg's videos are no longer available and i'm havin some trouble with my nodes. none of the maya nodes work as these do in the video. my density and displacement DO NOT directly take direct output from the range or noise nodes in maya....... please help

How about X-Particles Explosia or Open VDB files as the displacement?

Hey ! I've done this tuts once and it works perfectly, but i tried with an other 3D model and when im getting to this step: put a Arnold mesh volum tags on my model, nothing happens, it doesn't convert to a volume, any help ?

As far as I know Arnold is the only 3D render engine cable of this.

corona has noise volume. and layer mixing I am wondering if if can do the projection thing...

When I connect the C4d noise to the standard volume it doesn't show up at all and I'm very confused

How bout a mod for C4D's native renderer (or some tips)?

cool！how to achieve this effect with oc?

Is it possible to make a video with this effect?

How can I do it like in your pucture? I mean the mesh. I do only like a smoke

Is it possible that the New Editor of Arnold works different then the old Network shader? Because the displacement in with the Old Legacy Material and Network Shader is instantly visible whereas in the New Node Editor I could not get it to have that extreme effect. There is also a new node in the Editor called "Arnold Material". Can someone explain to me the difference of the two Shader Networks?

what about redshift? I'm at a loss as to what renderer to invest in.. :/

do you think that is possible to do it with redshift?

May i ask what is your CPU set up?

Could i do it in octane render with cinema 4d?

can i convert the final result to a polymesh?

my range stays as a default and doesn't change to a main, any suggestions

Can I do this without Arnold or any plugins?
