Hi, I just tried with Blender version 4.2 and a different model; it works. I’m not sure why it’s not working in your case, I'm sorry :-\

Hi, it might have to do with the Color Management settings, which you can find at the bottom of the Render tab in the Properties editor, or with other Compositing effects if you have additional post-production nodes; in any case, it is possible to enhance the Glare effect, as I show in this tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/N_Kx-ysBiB4/v-deo.html

I’m not sure why it’s not working in your case, I'm sorry :-\

@@fm3dtutorials That's ok, thanks for the reply and the information. I suspect one of my plugins must be interfering with it

Hi! I'm sorry, I don’t know the technical reasons behind this behavior, as I haven’t looked into it... I just know that with these settings, it works.

I'm sorry, I don't know - I don't use Houdini :-\

The sentence at 14:26 refers to the fact that Z-Depth uses a single sample, so it is not suitable for implementing anti-aliasing; for anti-aliasing, it's better to use Mist. Both nodes can be used for the effect, but we must know the limitations and characteristics of each. Here are links to two tutorials that might interest you: * How to set up anti-aliased Z-Pass in Blender 2.8: ua-cam.com/video/SCqQ_x0VGLc/v-deo.html * Get anti-aliased depth map in Cycles render: blender.stackexchange.com/questions/108556/get-anti-aliased-depth-map-in-cycles-render

Hi, I didn't try, but I think it is not supported - at least, in this version.

Thank you for the comment! I hadn't thought about these animations... I don't plan to make them at the moment, but I’ll definitely keep them in mind!

Hi, I'm sorry about that... I just tried with Blender version 4.2 and a different model; it works. I’m not sure why it’s not working in your case. Are you sure you’ve recreated the setup correctly, particularly using the Replace mode for the Set Alpha node, on a transparent background (Film - Transparent, in the Properties editor) and saving the file in RGBA mode?

Hi! Yes, the Color Space and other Color Management settings do affect the result, and in my case too, AgX reduces the glow effect, though it doesn't make it disappear completely... perhaps in your case the glow was very faint and becomes imperceptible... if needed, try boosting the glow like this: set the Mix Factor of the Glare node to 1, pass the output to an RGB Curves node, adjust the curve to enhance the effect, and finally, add the output of the RGB Curves to the original image. Let me know if this helps!

Hi, I'll try to put it briefly: Z-Depth returns the actual distance values of objects from the virtual camera, in Blender's scene unit. This information can be used to achieve various effects, including fog, but it first needs to be normalized to the 0-1 range because many nodes operate within that value range. The minimum and maximum values obtained with Z-Depth correspond to the Clip Start and Clip End of the virtual camera. In the case of Mist, however, we immediately get a fog effect that starts at the Mist Start distance from the virtual camera and becomes progressively more intense (up to white) over a distance determined by Mist Depth.

Hi, if you can't even select the faces in the UV Editor, maybe you have Paint or Sculpt mode enabled; take a look at this thread on stack exchange --> blender.stackexchange.com/questions/81588/cant-select-and-transform-faces-in-uv-editor

Hi, I'm sorry, but I wasn't able to recreate your issue. Are you importing the 3D model into Blender or into another software?

@@fm3dtutorials Sorry, I forgot I made this post and didn't update it. Thank you for taking the time to try to solve it. It was my own fault. A result of not understanding how to read the file properly with my code.

No problem! ;) I'm glad you figured it out anyway!

I'm glad I helped you :) if you have any other issue, write them in the comments ;)

Hi, I just tried exporting to usdz in Blender 4.1; I chose File - Export - USD, then I manually edited the extension of the file from .usdc (default) to .usdz and exported the file with no problem...

Hi, are the streaks bandy and noisy in the Compositor too? It may be due to the Quality and Iterations settings; try High Quality and 5 Iterations.

LOL 😅

Did you apply the Scale transformations to the objects? Plus, check the collision shapes.

@@fm3dtutorials collision shapes is sphere and what do you mean by apply the scale transformations to the objects

In the Item section of the Sidebar of the 3D Viewport (press the N key to open it), the Scale XYZ values of an object should be equal to 1. If they are not equal to 1, press CTRL + A, then choose "Scale" from the Apply menu.

@@fm3dtutorials ok yeah they werent at one, but I did try to fix it before and now there just isnt any interaction, no explosion, nothing, its as if they dont have the rigid body

mmm so the stick hits a ball, yet the ball doesn't move? Did you set the stick as Passive Rigid Body AND checked the "Animated" checkbox in the Rigid Body tab?

This is a step-by-step tutorial on modeling the object; I didn't provide a link to download the final model.
