Thanks. I don't have your Realtime Materials add-on but I love that you aren't being very exclusive about it, still making amazing tutorials on procedural Materials.

Great Video. I've watched a few other videos and the "instructor" just flew through the tutorial making it hard to follow. I really appreciate keeping it simple and how you slowly add each section.

I love that you do constant break downs and recaps through the video. So clear!

I only started with Blender a few weeks ago and haven't done anything with texture nodes yet. I still managed to understand the steps you went through thanks to your excellent explanations and clear process and I'm incredibly excited to start having a play with what, until 15 minutes ago, looked truly impenetrable to me. :) Thanks so much!

Never had the idea of putting 2 separate Principled BSDF and combining them later... that was an eye-opener for me, thank you.

Thank you for explaining all of this in a manner that can be understood even by newbs like me! 👏👏👏

I just started watching your tutorials and this one is the best yet! Much rather learn the concepts than just copying exact numbers. Thanks for that! Hopefully I'll find more of your videos like this.

I’ve been doing blender for 3 years, this video and it’s explaining left with me with more info than the vast majority of videos I’ve seen

Absolutely kickass, I learn aot by just messing with stuff but I never thought to mix the principled bsdf one with another.

Very good compact tutorial really easy to understand It also really helps when you go back and review/breakdown the components used and the purpose

We love and appreciate you, Nathan!! Wishing you your Best Year Yet, my Brother. 🙏🏾

Thanks for such a thorough breakdown and explanation on creating these procedural materials 👏👏👏

You explained everything very well instead of just telling us "do this, then do this".

One downside to procedural scuffs, scratches, etc is that it's kind of 'dumb', and doesn't pay any attention to where wear and tear actually occur (i.e. areas that get bumped or rubbed a lot), not to mention even procedural textures can look kind of uniform over large enough areas. Ambient occlusion nodes and Pointiness can account for some of this, but there's definitely a point where hand-painting things can achieve better results.

The shader editor always got away from me once the nodes begin stacking up. You explained this so clearly and practically, it was a huge help. Thank you

Dude, you are just a master in your field, thanks for such tutorials, keep up the good work!

Thanks Ducky! This is an awesome tutorial!

Although it's really easy to just buy Realtime Materials add-on and be done, It's super helpful to have knowledge of how the procedural materials work so you'll be able to properly adapt them to your project. Great tutorial.

Yeah that was completely simple, one of the best most succinct generated material explanations out.

This was SO helpful in explaing materials and nodes. Nodes always seemed way too complicted to dive into at first but now I wanna mess around with it and see what I can come up with on my own :) Personally, I would love a small series (with this material as an example) where you go deeper in complexity and show how you get more and more complex loking materials with more complex node setups because I WANNA KNOW HOW NOW lol. Thanks again Ducky! Enjoyable as always

This is absolutely SICK

thanks for this useful tutorial and i do have your RTM add-on its simply amazing :)

Thanks for cool and very simple explaining of nodes materials. I'm not so good in them, your videos allows me to understand this powerful part of blender. Thanks to you

I need to learn how to do this! Thanks for the video. I'm a new subscriber.

Ive watched u for years, learned so many things, this video style ur doing just now with the node explanations and detailed reason for use, is phenomenal...instant understanding of why and how. great stuff. many thanks for your time in making these amazing vids for learning blender.

you are the master! I mostly just watch Blender video's because I don't have time to learn it in depth, but love it. Watching your videos, motivates me that , "I can do that", so humbly thanks!

Great work mate ❤

When you mix with a noise it is best practice to use the "linear light" mix mode because noise is on average a value of 0.5, the linear light subracts this without extra nodes (it wont move).

Excellent Tutorial

it was a great tutorial. TY.

if you get some rust(scratches, any demage ect.) texture(dark on light) and bump node, you can connect it with the first bump and the texture. Than you get super realistic surface shape control. dont forget on mapping node for that rust texture😉

you can add bevel shader and add another extra damage texture.

very nice tutorial userfull thx

Great to see thanks

Very cool tutorial bro!!!

love it

Very well taught... :)

Nice tuto WE need more video

Great 👍

Thank you so much for this tutorial! this also works in cycles? or only in evee?'

Love the subject

thx bro

can you do a video quickly showing all the materials? i'd love to see what they all look like or most of them.

Nice

13:51 going through the workflow process and noting everything we did

I love you bro. You are the best/

you're awesome

Love the the videos. Just wondering what version of blender you think the best to use right now?

10/10

nice can you explain how to bake this procedural texture to image texture for game or sketchfab

Ducky, do u happen to play any video games and if so, which? :)

Another Question is how to bake those materials in blender in order to export them to other things like Marmoset/Unreal.

Is it possible to use the "RealTime Materials" as layers in a custom material we would create? So instead of the BSDF that you created, can we use the "RealTime Materials?" If we can do this, can you please make a video describing the process? Thank you.

I think I have understood it like never before o.O Thank you for that! Maybe my question is very beginner's question, but: Is this exportable outside of Blender? For example, could I take it to a video game engine? Is there a difference between trying to take it to, for example, Unity than to Cryengine? Or would the considerations be the same? Thanks!

I heard people say the Mix RGB is gone but I never really realized that until I checked it now... the thing is, I always add nodes from the context menu and never type in the name to search for them... so when I want to add a Mix RGB, I press Shift+A and go to Color and then Mix Color (I didn't notice the name change before) which gives me the Mix node already set to Color. So I just thought, what are you talking about? In my Blender it's still there 😆

I love this but i wish there was an easier way to do this inside game engines. Player gets damaged, use something like this to show wear and tear on the players materials. The only other way is to create assets the easy way using this add on in blender to export as a static material in your game but i digress

For some reason I can't get the HDRI image to show up in my viewport.

so what next that we need to do . for use in unreal engine?

Does this work for evee

DOES it work in a MacBook?

How much does that addon costs???

Please make another intro and post a video

So you don't NEED to unwrap if it's procedural materials?

is it too late to learn blender?? one question can AI make animation short movies??

Is there a Ducky video where he doesn't mention background noise? lol

weee

Lol first

Is it me or has his beard always been red or black

GIVE ME THIS ADDONS PLEASE I DONT HAVE MONY PLEASE
