That's great that you're starting on the donut course again! Good luck with that! But also, while the donut course is a GREAT resource for learning Blender, don't be afraid to just mess around and learn by making mistakes without necessarily having a goal in mind. Honestly, I watched most of the donut course before I had ever heard of Blender because I thought it looked cool, and only started looking into downloading it after I watched the course. Then, once I downloaded Blender, I never actually did the donut course lol To this day, I've never made a donut.

@@ltfilmthanks for the great advice! Will certainly keep it in mind :)

Thank you for the kind words!

Glad I could help!

You're absolutely right! I suppose a good way to think about it is that the number of max bounces is really referring to the number of bounces for indirect illumination (i.e. excluding illumination from the light directly hitting the object).

That is a very good question! Honestly, I don't know if I forgot it or left it out for some reason.

Glad I could help you out, and good luck! Also, an audio interface is basically just the thing you'd plug your XLR cable into so that you can plug it into your computer and record on your computer. Basically: mic->xlr cable->audio interface->(typically) USB cable->computer->DAW (Digital Audio Workstation: essentially the recording program)

The Render option changes the amount of subdivision the modifier will apply when you actually render out your scene (press F12). It's useful for when you want to have, say, 4 subdivisions on your mesh in the final render, but you don't want to use the computing power to display that many subdivisions while you're still working on your object. So you'd set your Render option to 4, and leave the viewport at something lower, like 2. Essentially, viewport is what you see when you're working, and Render is what you see when you're done.

Oh, thank you!

This method should work on anything! Just use whatever result you're wanting instead of the image texture, and it'll blur it! (As long as you have a way of using a vector with it)

I don't know! I haven't heard of that addon before!

@ltfilm it's built into blender. Just have to enable the addon. Been in blender for a long time.

Do you mean pull up all previous versions of the file you're working on? You would need to increase the number of save versions in your preferences. But, that would only work going forward, you wouldn't be able to do it for anything before you made the change.

Your seller scammed you

That is strange! They work for me in 4.2 version.

Mine are metallic too! I’m trying to find if there’s a default setting that is different or something. 4.2.2

Thank you!

Absolutely! Although, the noisiness in the image results from a sample count that is too low, rather than a max bounce that is too low. Also, there's a really subtle difference between camera noise and render noise, but it is there. So if you were going for absolute, complete, total, ultimate realism, you'd want to render with as little render noise as possible and then composite it with actual camera noise.

Hmm, I just pulled up the project file in 4.2, and it works fine for me.

That is strange! I just tried it in 4.2 and it works.

Glad I could help!

Do you mean edges of geometry? Or edges of textures?

Пожалуйста! (Я сделал это в Google Translate, я вообще-то не говорю по-русски.)

Indeed!

Glad I could help!

I'd probably just upload this video again, but in reverse...

Sorry, I don't know anything about Maya!

Don't know why you'd be holding a green plant in front of a green screen. Seems rather unhandy.

Oh no, this video is now considered old?! But glad it helped you!

Sorry, I don't know of any way to send the backups to a separate folder. It just defaults to whatever folder the main file is in. Perhaps there is some plugin or something that someone has made to do that, but I don't know of any.

Glad it helped!

You're welcome!

In the new versions of Blender, the principled BSDF was revamped and those options were moved under the subsurface and specular subcategories. I guess they decided it would make more sense to have them under the heading of the property it would most affect, rather then out on the top level where it's less clear what it is actually doing.

@@ltfilm Thanks for telling me this!

Glad it helped!

Glad I could help!

Thanks for watching it! I'm afraid I don't quite understand the setup you're describing. I don't believe I connected the Map range and value/math nodes to the mix RGB. They should connect to the IOR input of the refraction BSDF. The mix RGB is there to correct the darkening that happens when connecting the color ramp to the color input of the refraction BSDF. I can't remember if I had a reason why 1.55 was the value for the mix RGB or if I just figured it out by trial and error. If you have any more questions or just want me to elaborate on anything further, let me know!

Yes, I believe you can use it for bump mapping. But not for displacement. It gives really weird results if you do that, so make sure you don’t mix them up!

Glad I could help! And oh no, that’s going to become a thing, isn’t it?

You’re right, and I did do a more reasonably-paced full length tutorial as well!

Glad I could help!

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks! I really appreciate this comment a lot. Always great to hear someone got a lot of value out of one of my videos!

It would really depend on the content you’re viewing. An 8-bit video signal doesn’t benefit from being displayed on a 10 bit or higher monitor, but a 10-bit signal on an 8-bit monitor will lose some of the nuances that differentiate the 10-bit signal. However, true 10-bit consumer displays are somewhat rare and expensive. 8+2 bit monitors are more common, but are only imitating true 10-bit. (That’s a whole rabbit hole in itself.) And as far as I know, there aren’t any 12-bit consumer displays available. If any exist, they would fall firmly under the “professional” category and cost many thousand dollars. Tldr: Figure out what bit depth the media you’re consuming is at and get a display that matches that. 8-bit displays are probably good enough. 10-bit will provide a noticeably better experience, but are also noticeably more expensive. 12-bit for all intents and purposes doesn’t exist for you and me.

You're welcome!

@@ltfilm 😁

Thanks!

Glad I could help!

Thanks!

I do it through the side panel. Just unzip it at the top and reach in!

Doesnt seem like a way to do it on the fly quickly. Also zipping makes noise!

Thanks! I totally agree with you. I was just memeing on this one haha. Look up Ian Hubert if you don’t know what I mean. But, I’ve got an actual in-depth tutorial that goes through the whole process and explains in MUCH more detail.

@@ltfilm Haha. Ok, now I get it! First I was like...whaaat. How am I supposed to follow this!? But I looked up the long version on your channel and am modeling a landscape now. Thanks <3

Glad it could help!

Is your render engine set to Cycles? I see the light paths option in mine. If it's set to Eevee or Workbench, there is no light paths option.

That is an interesting idea!

Glad it was helpful!
