    Floodfill is a must-know group of nodes for anyone who wants to get serious about designer. In this video we're going to talk a little bit about what it is and how it works, then show off some examples of where you can use the various Flood Fills.
    This is by no means comprehensive, I will be doing loads of videos that involve FloodFill (it enables so much cool stuff) but for now this will serve as a really good introduction to the basic functionality.

    I don't know if you retired from video but you shouldn't, just found this channel and its one of the best designer resources. The 'why' we do it is so important. Would love to see more videos! Do one on the tile nodes.

    Hello, i just comment to say a big thank you, either you stop or take a break from posting, i just watch the video and saw your comment about people looking untill the end doesn't suprise me at all. As a total beginner who bought a lot of tutorial and being disapointed by most of them, the amount of knowledge with clear explanation you are displaying about how the node work and not just pluging them one after another without the " WHY " is just amazing. Thank you again !

    Floodfill really was a bit of an enigma to me, I also recently tried to understand how to I'd make a material close to the cobblestone you made earlier for a project I was doing earlier and I was just stuck. The distance and floodfill solution would've solved this for me right off the bat, so now I'm excited to be able to employ this for my next material.

    First of all, thank you so much for sharing this lesson. It is a great generosity to the art community. I believe that the tile sampler, slope blur and flood and fill are the most critical nodes, because they are the foundation to start any material. Thank you again, and I am looking forward to the next one.

    This information seems very useful. It's very different from the way I have been using Flood Fill, so it will probably take some time to change the way I use Flood Fill, assuming I do change my methods.

      @@JohnnyHalcyon3D
      I tend to use a negative bevel after the Flood Fill instead of a maxed out positive bevel along a parallel node line like you do in the video. I also don't merge it with a fully 'flooded' Distance, either.
      I think that's part of why I've run into a problem with one of my earlier experiments making a rock wall, though I'm not using a bevel in that I'm using multiple Flood Fill to Gradients. While I can make a rock wall in the method I'm using, since I want the gap between rocks anyway, if I want to make the rocks more merged together the bottom of each stone in the height maps will be at quite a different height. So merging them is impossible. But I'll see if I can integrate your method into what I was doing and see if that helps. The other possibility is to force the rocks to have a common lowest point, blending it with a a uniform grey value and the Screen blending mode (I think, whichever is the opposite of Multiply). But that might influence the height map too much.

    I wanted to say firstly, this is amazing content I've been learning substance for a year now but the actual knowledge you are showing is incredibly valuable. I wanted to ask something that I always struggle with and it's the order of stuff. Like in which part of the graph I start adding cracks and variation so I can still keep everything procedural.
    lets say I want to make some stylized stone tiles, I create them with this technique you show, but should I add the cracks in the middle (before I start giving the tiles random grayscale values) or after? or does it really matters?
    Also one thing I've been thinking about is the range we have for blending, I've seen some people always start from a .5 grayscale value and blending everything from there so you are always in between those 0-1 range and the blend modes act as expected all of the times. Is this something that you recommend doing always at the start of the graph or it just doesn't matter?
    Cheers mate.
    Ps. i swear to god i've seen daniel thiger courses, javier perez courses and all. But the way you explain is amazing keep up the good work.

    • @JohnnyHalcyon3D
      @JohnnyHalcyon3D  Před rokem +2

      it definitely can matter! There's a million different ways to get something done in designer so it's hard to find wrong answers. I think though that a really solid workflow is going from big to small (this is true of everything! You don't start making a cake by putting sprinkles onto a plate). In this case you sort of can think about the order in both a time or space sense. Did the cracks happen AFTER the tiles got their random height or before? Also depending on the blend modes you're using for the cracks it may guide your decision! If you're using something like a Min blending mode than you probably want to do the cracks first when all of the tiles are still white so the Min is effective and then blend your random greys/gradients afterwards. It always depends, but thinking big to small is a huge bonus!

    • @JohnnyHalcyon3D

      Multiply will not give you that slicing effect i'm after - Min creates a threshold at which to jump from one texture to the other which helps make this clean cut
