I purchased this course some time ago. A purchase that I have not regretted to this day. The different chapters are each worth the investment. But what pleases me the most is - that the author continuously expands the course and adds current technologies. And that completely for zero. That is no longer a matter of course today - many thanks for that.
@@juanvigr.5737 I can highly recommend this course to you. It really covers all aspects of landscape generation taking into account the latest technologies in Blender.
2:16 I am using Blender 3.2 but i can't find the scale node. My nodes about scales: Scale Elements / Scale Instances. Why I don't have the just scale node?
i just have one question about the displacement step because we are using the add vector node my whole plane is moved up when i change the strengths of the noise is there a way to makesure the plane displaces while remaining at its original location?
There a way i could replicate the mapping node effect in geonpdes so i can scale the texture on one axcies or move it in a certain direction without changing the dimensions of the mesh
There is no Texture mapping node in GeoNodes (yet :)) so people come up with creative solutions for that. Here is one workaround : czcams.com/video/2lZnAuHC55U/video.html
hello martin. love your work. i downloaded the assets of this scene from your patreon. the bush comes out with black plane for too much transparent planes. but the problem is , even after increasing the transparent bounces in the render settings, it still doesnt go away fully. any help please?
Grass are not working that are soo thick in cycles can you please recomment or make a video on it pleaaseee its a big head ache for meee. THE NOT WOTKING GRAAAAAAASSSSSSSS🤥🤥🤥
They can be very complicated to understand but with practise and time, they are a very valuable tool. Don't worry about them for now but maybe keep them as a goal to achieve later :) ~ Daniel
Out of curiosity: what is the configuration of your computer? I suspect my MacBook Pro 2012 with a benchmark render speed of 46 (yes...46!) is not going to be up to the task.
I highly recommend going with something that has a powerful GPU. You may want to consider upgrading to the 2020 macbook (non M1 or M2) and getting an eGPU if you truly want to stay with Apple. However, if you're willing to go with Windows, just get a nice Windows laptop with an RTX card. Side note, you can't use an eGPU with the newest Macbooks that use the M1 or m2 chips.
I have a lake scene that I used good old particles to scatter stuff on to, and it absolutely tanks my performance once I turn the grass on. I wonder if geometry nodes can at least improve performance.
It is cut out from a collection of skies called Kaiserbold, kaiserbold.gumroad.com/l/free_sky_backgrounds?layout=profile - it used ot be free, now its still at reasonable 2 Euro. I use these a lot 🙂
Sorry, I think the course would confuse you a lot without fundamentals in Blender. We recommend going through at least our basic course at www.cgboost.com/courses/resources
But you position them for camera so it is not really usefull. What if you want to render from diffrent areas? Putting grass front of camera wont save you if you want to change wiev. So whenever I look for tuts I always see they always make scenes for camera wiev. If you intend to change camera wiev like for animations or dynamic scenes you fucked up.
That's the standard way of creating environments for a camera shot, only detailing what will be visible. If you have more dynamic shot (or more camera angles), figure out your camera move first, and then finish up the enviro based on that.

@@devadethanmp5486 That would be a real struggle, sorry
The Part with the cloud shadows is brilliant yet so simple!
🥳
Some of the best money I have EVER spent. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
So glad to hear! 🥳
This looks incredible. It looks so complex but when you describe it it sounds more like intelligent smart work rather than complex. Fantastic work.
I JUST LOVE THIS SCENE 0:17
these tips are pure gold!!!
thank you Martin and CG Boost.
🤜🏻🤛🏻
@@MartinKlekner you are the Man!
A true work of art Martin. Am about to purchase your course
Awesome, thank you! 🙏
So many amazing tips packed in. Ill be sure to up my children and reduce my particles from this point on.
You are an inspiration. . I started experimenting with environments in blender after seeing your tutorials and its so easy and simple to do.
Love the way you speak, very dynamic!
Woah, Awesome breakdown & great stuff, thank you for sharing lodi/sensei Martin and CG-boost.
Getting your course! Wow!
God tier content! This helps so much with the scene I'm currently working on. You just earn a subscriber today good sir.
very good and compact info, thank you!
the city importer seems so easy, I have to try that :)
THANKS FOR THIS IV BEEN SEARCHING FO SOOO LONG
Woah, great video mate!
Thank you, it works perfect!
This is pure gold
Great video ! I bought your course and I do not regret it, your explanations are so clear and useful. thanks
Cheers!
As always amazing!
Such a nice video
If I have a better PC, I'll definitely get this course.
You're a beast! Thank you, helpful tutorial that borders on asmr. Ice cold chiller
what should one use instea of the scale node in 3.2? if he is trying to do the plane displacement
It's vector math node ;)
@@maxd6878 thanks
it work on my pc thx bro vеry much
Amazing😍😍
how did you get the grass to show up in the drop dox for collection info?
Have you subdivided the plane to have more than 4 verts ? The geometry nodes setup shown in the video only offsets the existing verts of the geometry
why i dont have the scale node in blender?
Its a Vector Math node - switched to Scale
Thank you so much!
I'm not fraction as good at this in Blender, but I still managed to pick up some great tips and methods. Thanks.
Glad it was useful!
Hi Martin, sorry, noob question does using geometry nodes for grass optimize Cycle? 🙋♂
Interessante, valeu obrigado
Nice, I'id have left a bit of color contrast on the car wreck !!!
Cheers, I didn’t really want to bring too much attention to it 🙂
@@MartinKlekner of course its a matter of personal taste, but i really like your work anyway - great tips and insights
Thanks a lot!!
Wow, nice
great content, thank you!
How strong is your PC?
hey ummm I can't find the scale node you use at 2:00 😅 cooullld anyone help me a bit? has the name been changed or something?
Search for Vector Math node and then set it to Scale 🙂
@@MartinKlekner thank you you 😅
I was hoping someone has already asked that 😂. I was searching everywhere. I would’ve never found that.

Czech it out!
Do I need to have really high grass density to cover the whole plane or can I put a grass image texture over the plane to cover the white spots?
hi, if it looks good, you can totally go for the grass image!

Use multiple not add

Is it possible to proxy the mesh with geometry nodes? to have better viewport performance
How powerful should your hardware be, so that you can mess with projects like that?
I can't honestly say I understood the geo nodes... but it looks cool... I've only just about grasped normal nodes... (2 years later)
They can be very complicated to understand but with practise and time, they are a very valuable tool. Don't worry about them for now but maybe keep them as a goal to achieve later :)

why my plane still flat? 02:24

@@uglynerfherder Thanks for heads-up. I’m undecided at present but reckon I’ll wait for the M2Pro or M2Max now and see what that offers. 👍🏻
Me: This is so cool... I bet I can make it.
Also me:*Looks at computer*
My computer: Don't even think about it.

im confused... in your bio u said u are using geoforce GTX 3070.... when did they start doing GTX again? or do u mean RTX?
Sorry, there was a mistake there, now updated :-)
What about doing this all in Lumion?
too!

Geonodes are slightly better performance-vise 🙂

What are the specifications of your computer🙏😘

Seems cool, can you somehow use this terrain in unreal? I heard there is a plugin for this
have u found out?
7:31 Why don't I have injection on my RenderDoc? Please help
You need to activate the Injection options in properties :)

Sorry, I think the course would confuse you a lot without fundamentals in Blender. We recommend going through at least our basic course at www.cgboost.com/courses/resources
Would not recommend it.

Very nice colors and light effects on that sky texture, too bad there's that blatant repeat in it...
When is cg boost monthly challenge coming back?
Very soon! 🙂

it's like photo shop but on soft
OMG
jUST TAKE MY MONEY. AND GIVE ME THIS COURSE
Grass usually from into clumps and has different shades in different patches. TO me it looks like a a CG animation from a pre pbr era game.
omg , i try repeat it , but my computer die after i add grass
god bless u xdd
I think 1 m² of grass should make my computer implode
That would be 99 percent of us
