I don't even undestand what is the "trick" in this video. Masking textures? Hardly a trick. Combining textures before plugging into the bump node? I thought it was how everyone does it.

@@patakk8145 This dude is about making his own "brand" by showing noobs some tricky things, like how to delete default cube or save a file. Some fastfood feel good epitome of youtube tutorial right here. Saw some of his tutorials before and didn't have any hope for this one also, 2xed speed and skipped straight to his "trick" thinking "common, are you gona show us the math node or something" and he did not disappoint. For real stuff Default Cube guy is very good. Lost some braincells and time watching this one.

@@Sirin111 Gonna be real, Default Cube doesn't always do his research and talks out of his ass a lot too. I appreciate what these guys do though, even though QC is pretty bad sometimes.

@@Sirin111 This is the second one in a row from him that was recommended to me and both were disappointing. Neither of them explained upfront what the viewer will actually be learning. I watched an entire step-by-step tutorial for a geonode animation and the actual animation was never showed. Not at the beginning so you know what you're about to get into, or even at the end where you'd expect to see the final render. I've seen a lot of people in the comment sections who are happy to just click a random video and replicate every step, and if that works for them that's great. But I wish D3D (and similar channels, but this is definitely the worst offender I've stumbled across) would respect people's time by being upfront and honest about what to expect. You shouldn't have to watch at 2x speed or skip through an educational video to find out what you're supposed to be learning.

@@noaburr Anything else?

what if you put the noise into the scratches to give them more detail?

i already tried to recreate some material myself but can't have a good wall paint material with noise etc..

You could try masking. Basically get the your desired cracked texture, then use a mix shader to combine the texture to an emission texture. Use the same bump map node collection to put it into the factor of the mix shader, duplicate the colour ramp just in case you need to slide around with it. You be able to get the desired result

Try useing the object you want the particles to flow into as an emitter, then use a force field to acctract the particles, and reverse the animation

set the force field strangth to -1

and make sure your emitter is set to emit form volume.

A darken node in the MixRGB shader would be far superior as it calculates the darkest colour from the two bump maps and uses that for the bump depth. This allows either texture to "eat" into the other along their edges based upon which is deeper.

Right now you can’t achieve that with Geometry Nodes

@@TheDucky3D thank you for an updated tutorial though, absolutely love it!

Hi Braphics. I found a tutorial from "Blender Tutorials" regarding reflections. But it's for Eevee. Hope this helps. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sLmVgtSFvc7Zg4E.html

Denoise in composition.

Whats your CPU / Whats your rendering-settings? Without your specific blendfile its hard to tell you what mistake you made.

Maybe bring down the max sample count, 4096 is overkill Try something like 512 or even less. If it's a single cube 32 could even be ok

@@blindshellvideos my CPU i7 7700 3,6GHZ, my GPU is gtx 1060 6GB an 16GB RAM. I rendered just cube because I wanted to test. I opened new file and there are default settings.

@@valovanonym cube was just for test. Default settings so I will try what you said.

@@19JustMike83 you can also set a time limit but I never used it so not sure what the results would be
