Brilliant...unfortunately it doesn't work that way in Blender 3.4.1! But if you set the Rotate Euler to Axis Angel and Object it works for me! Instead of the Empty, I use the Color Ramp as an animation, setting the position of the black gripper to zero and 1 and also animating the color black on white, so the size of the flower remains the same! Thanks for the great tutorial! By the way, I bought the Friut collection - great too! LG Peter
Yeah animating on color ramp can be pretty good, just gets a bit confusing sometimes for me. Glad you like them!, Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or problems with them
@@yashnasharma1244 Move the mouse over the color gradient in the ColorRamp and set an animation point with the "i" key - jump forward a few seconds in the timeline window and set the next animation point by changing the color ramp and setting the next animation point with "i"! and so forth
Thank you for your tutorial! I have been working on repeating your steps for 2 days already and I am still on 1/4 of the video. I am a beginner in blender. Sometimes it is difficult to understand how you opened some parts or functions, so i google and then try until i get the result needed, it extends my command of blender even more. Very interesting what i will manage to make in the end of this journey. I also like your voice over, pleasant to listen. I will tag you when i finish my animation.
Hi, thanks for this video! I think its a nice lvl for people who already know there ways in blender a bit, and are trying to learn geo nodes. you dont explain stuff that has been in a milion videos. And show wat can be done with simple concepts put together. Beein a higer lvl tut i would love if you explain mor broadly wat you want to acheave whith the things you do, instead of describing wat you click. ...Under rated channel indeed. thy for your videos!
Thanks! I have another complex geo nodes tutorial dropping in the next few days and which I go over a bit more of some of the node uses and why I'm using them
Wow, Amazing ! Do you know if there is a way to keep the flowers still after they've been growned? Like a paint effect. Looking forward to your future works dude !
You could try some tutorials for dynamic paint to a vertex group, Im not too familiar with dynamic paint but i think that would work, another option would be to just use a object instead of empty and use geometry proximity node like in my knitting tutorial, this would let you just scale the control object/empty so it would grow and stay after being grown but would need a bit of tweaking on the map ranges
Great tutorial! Got everything going good but I have a question. Hos could I use geometry nodes to make the flower stay but still grow in area. Like a plain or field that is expanding. How could I achieve that?
Really nice tutorial! Got this to work on my first try. I was wondering could it be possible that the plants only wiggle as they grow and ease into being still once they have grown fully? So that it looks like they are wiggling their way up. I tried to animate the parameters of the plant's geonodes but they don't seam to affect the instances created by the Empty...
Hello, this has been a very nice piece of work. I have a point where I'm stuck. When I move my empty object forward, I don't want the plants in the background to be hidden. In other words, I want the plants in the background to always be visible in the scene. How can I do this? I would appreciate your help.
Trying to simulate this but instead of a tree bark, on text...I want the text to be formed out of vines and have this effect with some flowers and plants coming out of certain points for a logo...any other tutorials you might recommend on making animated vines as well to add this to?
vines are a bit tricky, ive been testing a bunch of methods and the 1 problem face is the branches move too much or grow with the plant (not realistic) but if you aren't going for realism you could just use a bezier curve and instance your text on the first curve (curve to points) then displace points on faces for the flowers, might be issues with flickering though
Everything was working as intended but as soon as I got to the empty part, I'm at a stand still. I've set up the object info-distance-map range-color ramp into the scale of the instance on points node but when I move the empty around, nothing happens to the flowers. Is this related to @vacpw03 's comment about it not working for them and them having to animate with the color ramp? I'm using blender 3.6 right now. Unsure if something changed here post 3.4. I may also not be adding in empty properly. I just added an object info node and selected the empty but did you parent it? Thanks!
@@matthewdavies1213 I got frustrated and used this tutorial instead, I think you can apply it to the branch and this one worked for me, hope this hels ua-cam.com/video/CWomo4_E6l8/v-deo.html
had the same issue with blender 3.6. so decided to use Geometry Proximity node with a sphere instead of an empty and it seems like working as intended.
hmm, not 100% sure but it sounds like either the map range values need to be inverted or just try to play around with them and see if it appears, if not then try ctrl+A on the empty to apply the scale (also make sure the object info node/ the empty is set to relative and not original)
@@cheuqs Interesting, now that I look at the project, I think youre right about applying the scale...I did this for everything else but the empty. Thanks dude.
@@ULTRRRRRLLLLLGHT got stuck here too but will go to sleep and continue tomorrow. Empty doesn't change size of my flowers when i move it. and flowers are so tiny, just like spots. Anyways, very interesting
The scene time node only uses the amount of frames to auto animate a value, if you don't have it in your version you can just press "i" on the multiply value and keyframe it to animate it manually
@@cheuqs no no i am not talking about the fall off. for example i have a flower which opens with its petals, i want to distribute them on an object and want to access the indecies so when an empty comes they should start opening one by one. i am sorry my english is not very good but i think i made my point
@@saparjumash hmm not 100% sure, I think ive tried that but wasn't able to figure out how to do it other than using a map range with a proximity, but if you find out pls let me know!
@@cheuqs I have been searching that. in c4d it is very easy just with falloffs and some tweakings. I cant understand why blender foundations dont make effectors.
it may be a hardware issue, making it I didn't run into any problems other than if the mesh for the plants were too dense then it may lag and cause it to crash, you could try using the decimate modifier to reduce the polys for the plant mesh
hey quick question, is there a possibility for me to "paint" with the empty sphere on the object so that the flowers stay once the sphere moves away? so it creates the effect of painting with flowers. i know it is possible but can't find a solution yet 😔
@@cheuqs hey it's me again; i was wondering, do you know how would i position the instances on my object without them overlapping? for example if i had a more rigid structure instanced, like crystals, and not flowers as per your video? if you have an idea and the time to reply i would be super grateful 🙏
@@letsd0good Im not sure if theres a way to get them to not overlap, maybe try the poisson disk option on the distribute points on faces. Other than that I would just try to change the seed until it looks good
hey, when I plug the collection info in the instance on points nodes it turns to be millions of extremely way to big flowers that crashed my computer on top of the log :/ I also that your density on the log is at 10000 but mine is at 0.05 or else it crashes and I already have thousands of small points and not a few like you. Pleeeease help !!
Yeah like @auxvisuals7967 said, Id try to change the density value or maybe try to apply the scale of the log. One last thing that might or might not work would be to scale the log down by 1/10th then apply scale and scale back up without applying the scale (might not work though)
after making the proximity node connections, i tried to move my empty to see the scaling of the flowers, but nothing is scaling or moving. how to fix that?
It might be the object node you have (the empty) just make sure that its set to relative, that will translate any edits to node itself, other than that you could try applying the scale to the branch or try and change around the map range values a bit
For me the plants are way to small....as i forgot to apply the Transforms and the model was huge.....can I fix this afterwards? Im already at the 8:00 minute mark
@@cheuqs I used the same nodes as you and but I'll try and do that! It's just that the flowers have their green still left but the petals are white, the plant thing is completely white and the log has its details but is mostly white but not completely. It's also only in the render and rendered view that they look like that.
I am new at this but can you tell me how to keep them grown up its a for a static scene I am making and want to just show them growing and then just wiggle at their place not disappear or like die out kind of animation happens after sometime don't know how to do this just had an idea
Yeah you should be able to just stop the empty from fully going past the empty, so for example keyframe it going towards the object then stopping on the middle of the object, and if you want the spread to be more it would be map range values I would try and tweak
if the guy makes money from nfts i got no problem with that. let him support himself however he wants if it lets him keep producing tutorials then we all benefit.

How do I get this project file
Hello, great video but the empty doesn't have any effect on the scale of the flowers, do you know what it could be ?
you can try to level out the map range values to where you see the flowers and slowly decrease the values to make a gradient until it looks good
Hello, I have blender 3.0 and it does not have the scene time node, what can I do?
The scene time node only uses the amount of frames to auto animate a value, if you don't have it in your version you can just press "i" on the multiply value and keyframe it to animate it manually
Can I then animate and export?
Gadamn
is there any way to control the proximity to affect its growing effect. like when the empty comes the flower shoul START opening or growing?
Yeah, you would want to play around with the map range values after the geo proximity node, that what controls how much the fall off would be
