Fantastic tutorial! One tip to avoid tiling even over very large scales: use prime number sizes for the tiles. 200 and 300 will repeat again at the least common multiple which is 600 (edit: I originally wrote 1200 here). 211 and 307 will repeat at 64,777!
@mikelittlenz4 жыл бұрын
That's a great tip!
@warwicklambert334 жыл бұрын
Sounds like a great tip if I could understand it. By tile size do you mean the size of the original "Plane" that is 200x200.....?
@Malcolm___74 жыл бұрын
Warwick Lambert Yeah, in the video, he mixes two sets of tiled planes... one plane is 200x200, and the other is 300x300. The idea is to avoid the obvious-to-the-eye short distance tiling by making the new repeat size 1200x1200. My suggestion is to tweak those numbers to be prime numbers instead (I picked n=211 and m=307, but the particular prime numbers don't matter). The tile edges will coincide at the least common multiple of n and m. With 200 and 300 that's only 1200x1200. With prime numbers, the least common multiple is the product n x m. n=211, m=307, you will get tiles that are non-repeating out to 64,777 x 64,777. It doesn't matter for the shot he does in the video, but if you plan on moving the camera way up high, the 1200x1200 tiles might become noticeable.

@DylanNeill3D3 жыл бұрын
IMPORTANT INFO: Hey everyone, Blender has had a bunch of extra features added to the Ocean Modifier since I made this tutorial. One of those is separate viewport and render resolutions. So at 3:18 when you're setting the resolution, you need to set the one called "Render" underneath the "Resolution Viewport" setting. The viewport one can be whatever you like as it only affects the display in the viewport. Also the way the wave settings work has changed so just using my values won't look the same. I suggest you play with the settings yourself to come up with something similar. I'm working on an update to this tutorial which will cover all this and more.

Had a couple of questions about my system so I thought I'd answer it here. I recorded this one on my work machine which I happened to have at home at the time. It's a Threadripper 1950X with 3xGPUs (1080ti, and 2x1070). I fast forward all the rendering in the video so render times were more like 30 seconds per frame instead of 2! Also I "potato checked" this tutorial on my old i7 home machine (which is what I usually record on anyway) to make sure the render times weren't too crazy.

The idea to use a circle instead of a plane is so simple, yet it makes so much sense. Such little tricks are invaluable.

Great tutorial. I have done large scale oceans using VRay and the The Phoenix Ocean texture which also creates infinite procedural oceans using vector displacement (like Houdini) to great effect but always wondered if Blender could ever get there. One difficult aspect in Ocean animation is figuring out dynamic displacement, so close up the ocean is very detailed with a lot of micro surface displacement and far out it transitions seamlessly without killing the machine.
