Mesh Boolean node is very heavy, and should be used sparingly. For a custom shape with density control, build the geometry node tree on the custom mesh shape you want to work with. Use the following nodes: Group Input (Geometry) > Mesh to Volume > Distribute Points In Volume (set to Grid) > Geometry Proximity (set to Points, Distance output) > Math (Less Than) If you multiply that result with the Voronoi's distance output (using Math (Multiply)), you can plug that multiplied value into the Volume Cube's density input. Basically, you are controlling the density of the cube by referencing both the Voronoi and a reference geometry. You can use the spacing controls on the Distribute Points In Volume OR the setting for the Less Than node OR both to dial in the precision of the shape (although be very careful with the spacing settings because setting that very low increases the cost of the operation and can crash Blender; try something around 0.100 for spacing). To make sure your whole geometry fits into the volume cube so you aren't cutting off any of your custom mesh shape, you can use: Group Input (Geometry) > Bounding Box > Volume Cube (where you plug the min and max from the bounding box into the min and max of your volume cube)
Amazing!!! Thanks!! :)
Fantastic Thankyou
..
Any links to a longer video on the seawater method? I wasn't able to follow along.
or even a link to an article.
I have found this, very similar to what i was going for, its all in animating a noise texture fed to a bump node to control the normal of a material; /watch?v=MtlSIRh5r_E
this deserves more subs
so cool, actually useful for students to learn both blender and the subject
I wish tutorials wouldn't use shortcuts because they never work when I try them, they change every few months or so I don't know but whatever function the E key is it doesn't work and I bet all the other shortcuts don't work so I have no clue what you are doing.
You might want to check ur keyboard cuz i too once had those problems
At which moment? For Map import? I actually don't know of another way beside the E key. Do you have an apple computer? I have had multiple reports of the addon not working for mac unfortunately
The video is super intressant. Tu es français ? Parce que j’ai l’impression que t’as un petit accent.
Merci! Presque:p mais bien vu pour l'accent!
I tried Positano but the heighmap doesn't work well when zoomed in
That's a beautiful place! Have you put enough subdivisions? try adding one more subdivision modifier before the displacement. What zoom level are you on to select the region?
@@ClickbaitScience I tried very closeups too but somehow it does not give all the small details or the terrain. Ended up using render doc capture from google earth, it has way more detail but the combined tile set is a bit resource heavy.
You can hold ALT while swapping ports, especially in your mix node, if you need to just swap the ports, hold down ALT. Your video is amazing btw!
Ah many thanks mate! That's a nice quality of life shortcut there, I wish I knew them all
Very helpful to my research team and I! Love blender, but we've never considered making our own renders like this. Going to have a crack at it!
Thank you, glad I can be helpful! Show me your creations when they come out
If you upload your video in 1440p, UA-cam uses a better codec, which better preserves the details.
Thank you that's good to know!
Hello, How do you do to solidify ? I don’t Know how to solidify just for the Z axis. Thanks
Hi, Indeed the solidify modifier can give weird results. Another thing you can try without it, is apply all the modifiers. Then go to the edit mode, select all the faces, then hit E -> Z to extrude along the z axis and create the bottom. You can also do S->Z -> 0 to have a flat bottom. Whats nice with this is that you can set a different material for the rim.
Great video! Following your channel!
Thanks! Welcome:)
Thank you very much!
Really awesome video! I especially like the extra details at the end about MD and video compression. The example renders you've been showing all look really awesome, glad I can help out :)
Glad you enjoyed it!:)
Interesting to help change mind! Thanks for your ideas and sharing and work!
Happy you found it interesting!))

Great Video!! Thank you!
Wonderful Start for a unique blender channel for a specific industry. Subbed!
Base map doesnt load, what can i do ?
Do you have an apple computer? I've had colleagues with such issues on mac. Unfortunately since I don't own one I cannot troubleshoot for you
@@ClickbaitScience Yes I have a Mac, and before I used normally , but in this new version of blender, doesn’t work
wow those were some nice points with a nice production
Hey man, thanks for the tutorial, I appreciate it!
When I first began. I would have taken about 4 hours to do this 8-and-a-half-minute video. Because I want to know how we choose what geometry node to use. I have caught on a little better in my understanding of geometry nodes. But it was not overnight. It has been a year and a half now. I always would encourage taking a paid class. Thanks for sharing. This video was amazing.
Amazing! 😮
hmm intéressant :)
So cool! Would love videos on transforming data into images and videos with matplotlib, etc.
thanks for the video !, is there any course that you would recommend for us? online or on youtube?
If you are a new to blender I would very strongly recommend taking the time to complete BlenderGuru's Donut tutorial here on youtube. It's kind of a rite of passage.
Thanks to you, I now know how I can create a Sandworm's mouth in blender. Though this may not have been your intent, know that I will use this power most responsibly.
thank u
I study biology and medical laboratory research, and have been practising blender for the last couple of months. Time to combine the two with the help of your videos :)
watched in 0.25x
really interesting and nice tutorial! thank you for sharing. subbed! :)
Thanks and welcome!:)
there is a mesh to volume node in geonodes, so you do not have to use boolean for it
Unfortunately this does not work because that node has no density control. So you cannot control it with the voronoi texture. @ryomizutagraphics found a workaround however in his video "Make ANYTHING porous in Blender", its quite technical.
Oh my Gosh that's amazing Thank you man
can u please model organs ! so helpful for me as a medical student thankks and good luck ! :D
Great content. I almost didn't watch this due to the channel title. I've been using blender for years now and never had the need (or so I thought) to use the Simple Deform modifier. Now I see the power and usefulness of that modifier. Keep up the good work!
it was a great video. thanks
The only problem with such a workflow is that you require someone to render/illustrate the subject before you can even understand what to model. So first you have to find it on google images. Maybe you could render the subject with AI first, but at this point AI is not trustworthy for realistic renders of a cell or a virus or whatever. I love the tutorial - sub'd
I'm curious why you don't use the real PDB structures for the proteins?
In short: (speed and computer resource) vs. scientific accuracy. Although today, with Brady Johnston's molecular nodes addon getting PDB structures is so convenient that my two first tutorials on this channel are not that relevant anymore.
Again, Amazing! Nice content - good time frame for a detailed overview! I really hope this channel takes off! Already showed your channel to several researcher colleagues!
Thanks again! And thank you for contributing to the growth of our community, its much appreciated!
I've been looking for something like this!! Hope you do more in-depth videos similar to this one!!!
Especially animations!
@@98Castaway Thank you, I will! What type of animations do you have in mind?:)
You are a talented Blender user. I learned something, but from a beginner's point of view, here's my dilemma... Yes, each step from the primitive to the finished product is "easy" to do. But the real problem is knowing WHICH tool to use and WHEN to use it. Actually using the tool isn't that hard, but theory about what ought to be used is where I mess up.
Thank you! Yes indeed especially since there are so much of them and they are changing. That's kind of where I see the added value of my channel. 3D is my hobby, therefore I can spend lots of time trying to figure these things out. I turn them into bite-sized tutorials that hopefully align with what people from science want to create, but who can't necessarily spend dozens of hours every month to keep up with this stuff. Don't hesitate to tell me if you have some problem you need solving, that's what I do with my weekends
Returning to say thanks and thanks yt for the suggestion. I took a break and just had some unrelated creature fun after watching this. It was refreshing.
You’re 100% will be popular! this quality of media is really astonishing and there should be much more people to watch this channel
Amazing!!! Thanks a lot
Nice video ! Maybe I'll start doing my own projects thanks to your clear explanations :-)
this is so simple yet beautiful. nicely explained 👍
I am very new to this channel and this video surprised me how on earth you don't have at least 100k subscribers. Keep this great quality content in your future videos too and hope you will keep growing. Love from India🇮🇳❤❤
Thanks a lot kind sir! I will remember you when we get to 100k;)
