hey... so now newer versions of aces are out now... i assume there wouldn't be any problems if i switch to the newer aces 1.2 config?
I haven't tried switching yet but I believe it should work the same
@@marioCazares thanks... another quick question... so, i usually render animations using the command line, since i have changed to aces, there's some sort of error message: Color management: display "sRGB" used by scene not found, setting to default ("ACES"). Color management: scene view "AgX" not found, setting default "sRGB". Color management: sequencer colorspace "sRGB" not found, will use default instead. The renders looks identical to the ones rendered inside blender, at least visually. Please tell me this is not a problem, or a way how to fix them... Thanks & Adios!
Awesome work, Mario! The sense of scale you achieved with those smoke/dust sims is amazing.
Thanks!! I wanted to push even more detail but without renderfarms/multiple workstations the file size and time would've been too much
@@marioCazares I can imagine - there's always a higher quality render haha. But it does look great as is.
7 years ago watching this video
Thumbnail is not good,i think
Amazing work, looks stunning
@@lak3d thanks! Also shoot I forgot about the thumbnail I'll probably change it later to something else
So so sick, good job ❤️

It was worth the wait I love it!
Thank you ❤️
Excellent work! Loved every second of it!

Excelente video, esta muy bueno la verdad, tenia todo mal configurado jejej !!! muchas gracias!, un abrazo desde Venezuela amigo!
10:00 wow, this trick is new for me, I have the same difficulties (like u) when I try to track some harder footages, not only move camera around a place (like many VFX tutorials on youtube). And I get really high sovle error, because there are not good trackers to solve. I saw some Matchmove breakdown videos and I saw they use 3d Scan of the environment for some scenes, but I didn't know how they did that. Now I got it, thanks you! I already watched a couple videos from VFX tutor before watch your video, but now I think I should watch his videos seriously! Matchmove is harder than what people think, and also the very first step to put some magic in live action footage.
Glad that part helped you out! Matchmove is extremely difficult and I'm always amazed at actual matchmove artist who solve insane shots. Here is another channel I highly highly recommend. They have two channels channel 1: www.youtube.com/@trackvfx6760 channel 2: www.youtube.com/@trackvfxlive8478
These DDR Soft Pad all have a common problem. The big circle in the middle does not have any sensing area. I really don’t know why they imitate this design flaw of KONAMI.
But looks not working it shows none! How can we change color management.
Maybe late into the game, but i wonder if there any risk to have smaller plywood ( to the exact size of the soft dance pad, I am not living house so I dont want to buy big plywood to take place. I wonder if there is any stability issues. I mean 12 mm thick plywood with adhesive should contain well with vinyl?
This is from his album Bells…. Sonny Moore tried his hand at electronic music and did a tour with Shawn Friday.
That was amazing work! I honestly thought the armor was real and just the blades on the wrist was 3D. Amazing job with lighting and compositing! I’ve been meaning to add rotomation into my skills. Do you have tutorial/class recommendations for learning rotomation? Could be with Blender or any other software is fine!
Nevermind, I just saw your tutorial recommendations on the longer walkthrough video. Again, great work!
Thanks! Also I highly highly recommend this artist for tracking and rotomation info!: czcams.com/channels/jm__bwnllKzKy1qA_RnV8w.html czcams.com/channels/tDkfuPY2AyUk3wulNjCO-g.html
@@marioCazares Oh yeah, I’m following that guy already! Definitely has some great content. It can be difficult sorting through all the “CZcamsr” teachers to find content catered towards/taught by industry professionalsA lot of their stuff can be useful, but many of the channels don’t go too far into advanced VFX/CG techniques and workflows. I appreciate the recommendations and your content!
What kind of tape or called the white tape?
Great work, but I use after effects, blender
고맙습니다.
wow freaking cooo..is there any tutorial for this? \
This is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing.
you are a gem man......
there's always a lot to learn!!
Anyone listening to this remix of hill song United ocean in 2024?
So excited to do this!!! I'm trying to start a community after school program in my town to help kids learn about music, dance, video games and a healthy lifestyle. I have Mario DDR for Gamecube and found a couple pads that work perfectly. This will really legitimize my business! :-)
That seriously sounds so cool and very fun! Hope the program goes well!
You even rendered the caustics, holy crap 😮 Caustics isn't Blender's strongest suit, unless you used LuxCore
Yup I used LuxCore just for the caustics and cycles for the rest!
@@marioCazaresthat's a good attention to detail!
If I bring Acescg texture set in, what IDT do i choose for all type of texture?
Hey man, i am thinking about doing this mod soon, i know this video is really old and all but how much would say this increased the pad's durability ?
The pads have lasted and still work to this day however they do miss some steps or double step from occasionally. They worked reliably for years I would say even to around 2021 without many issues. I even played in shoes often. (Although shoes do make the pad slide around the floor a little) We owned 3 soft pads before these modded ones and those all ripped after a year or two. So I'd say this dramatically increases the longevity and the feel of the pad as well. Keeps it from scrunching up as well which is huge
@@marioCazares That's amazing, from 2 to 6 years is incredible, i've already purchased a soft pad from Ali and can't wait to mod it with my old man, he seems eager too since he gave me my first soft pad more than a decade ago lol Now I need luck sourcing the materials used lmao
This hopefully bro ❤❤❤
Correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t the early vocals of scary monsters and nice sprites the reverse of its end vocals? I happened to discover it myself a few years back, but I might be wrong.
You're right I didn't know this. I threw it into ableton and sure enough same vocal. Nice discovery!
@@marioCazares Hell yea! :D
If you multiply about 20 audio effects with the OTT MULT band isolating the 3 bands in the master of a sound for example, you will realize that completely changing the sound, it distorts the sound, but if you multiply the same 20 audio effects with this reaxcomp, it changes practically nothing, it does not increase the signal does not color the sound, Almost nothing msm, very good, obg helped dms with this
do you do commissions?
hello please my friend tutorial original
Outstanding... I know I'm late to this party, but this was a great tutorial, thank you for the mod!!
dude that's so sick
Greatt❤❤❤😮
I’m not doing good, thanks for asking.
Why what's up?
THIS IS DOPE
Thank you for your wonderful video tutorial! I'm just starting to learn Nuke, Blender and VFX in general! I don't have the finances to buy the courses to fully immerse myself in the logic of creating VFX videos, but have a huge desire to do the same! The internet often does not explain these steps below in as much detail as in your video tutorial. Could you please explain in detail how to reproduce light/shadows/reflections from the video on imported objects in Blender 3D, so that everything "matches" and is as realistic as in your video? I would also appreciate if you could elaborate on the topic of "exporting" the render from Blender -> Nuke Thanks in advance, subscribed to your channel! (sorry for my bad English)
@@marioCazares wow... I'll be waiting, thank you!
How Skrillex reference and salute You to brother to find this thing ❤
Yo dude! I tried exchanging the file u gave in the video with the original color management copy folder, it does not work, do i need to have luts folder too?
did you found a solution for optimize the huge list of color space in blender ?
bro this is great knowledge does blender 3d tracker does it that good? there is also in blender . and in compsoiting node of blender there is also a undistort node type thing does it works that good there its confusig terms like k1 k2 k3 polynomial etc. and thanks for the tutorial you are great. and eagerly waiting for the transformers tut
@@marioCazares ok thanks for sharing this valueable info
Super helpful. Thank you.
In my cast I named him Jazz
Yep.

Blender doesn't even pick this up in 4.0
I haven't tried yet as I'm still using 3.3 LTS for actual projects but I'll give it a try when I have time
I actually had to go in and create a variable inside windows in order to make Blender forcefully read the OCIO file regardless. After that it worked.@@marioCazares
Great tutorial. I can't believe there isn't a checkbox for "use raw data" as opposed to having to scroll through that dreadful color space menu just to select "utility raw". Nuke has had this feature on read nodes for over a decade.
