thanks for the time breakdown!
No worries mate :)
David Ariew looks like X particle!
MATE I learned more about octane in this video than I have any other video. Thanks for all the help. Very easy to follow and the fact you go into detail of what each thing does is GREAT. THANK YOU
Glad it helped
Really appreciating your teaching style, David. Good speed, focus and technically experienced. Thanks a lot! (EJ, as well)
You bet, thanks for watching!
These pictures are soulful, they strike a cord when I look at them.
Your tutorial series is one of the best! Beautiful.
Thank you very much for your tutorials. Thanks to you going from Arnold to Octane was a breeze !
Glad to hear it!!!
Great to see David back again. Look forward to seeing more Octane goodness. :)
Glad to be back!
Thanks David! I know its an old video but still, this has been a great of help
TY Octane jesus! the scatter generator in octane is amazing
Awesome as always! You guys are great! Inspires me to be an Octane believer again.
Thanks for the tut, David. Really good work!
Hey David , I recently saw your NAB 2017 and the astronaut video.I wanted to know if all of it was done in c4d,I was blown away by the quality and the scale of the scenes(lighting ,framing .etc) reminded me of 2001: Space odyssey.Keep up the great work, your certainly one to watch for in the future.
Thanks man!! Yep, all in C4D!
jsut got octane and r19 today.... excellent. thanks man! i was soooo lost!
Thanks, Octane Jesus!
Oh cool, I did this a couple of years ago, without octane, and oddly without the Chris Schmidt tutorial, interesting to see how you did it, and how octane helps.
Brilliant tutorial, as always I've learned something new form David :)
So many great nuggets in here. Thanks man!
Amazing tutorial. Im gonna add some effectors and fields and see what happens.
Thank u for the tutorial :D
i love ur voice (im german and understand u very well but i dont find some things because of the different layout and maybe i have a better version now). cry
Hi everyone,
@eyedesyn thank you for this grate tutorial.
After 11 years I realised that I have to use windows pc for the cinema 4d. If it is possible could you share your the best notebook for this purpose please, thank you all
thank you bro... you best of the best))
Da Vid Da Vid!
great tutorial !! thank you !!!
thanks for watching! :)
Hi David, this is great stuff! I wonder though if it's possible to use e.g. bitmap to have different colors in exact places as I need. Is it possible with Octane?
wow this is amazing! Do you also know how to make it move? Do I need to have a continuous sequence of the b&w images and somehow plug them all in? Thanks a lot!
thanks for your amazing video!! may i ask for your computer specifications?? thats really awesome^^
This was so cool, Anyway i can do this on redshift?
i was wondering where did i heart your voice before and i remember , your voice like, Chris Griffin from family guy :D
Hahah! This isnt the first time someone has mentioned that!
eyedesyn hehehe :)
Hahaha god damn it
Hey guys,
So thanx a lot to help me learn Octane 1st of all ! I m here because when i had a 2nd cube to get different color nothing happens so im quite confused .. Thank you :)
same problem here, any solutions?
Solved it duplicating the entire scatter and ading another texture/color to the cube on it
it also works getting the cube inside the other cube, insde only one scatter
but you know what? the REAL solution was to invert the shader on position, inside octane scatter, and then playing a bit with min and max shader resolution on scatter..
I want a Million instances of this tutorial!
hahaha
This is so rad! Is there a way to make these animatable?
Hello David. Thank you so much for making this extremely elaborate tutorials. I followed your tutorials and created similar typography however I am wondering if it is ever possible to convert the octane scatter instances to meshes. I am thinking about exporting these particles to Maya for further manipulations. Thanks
Thanks for the kind words! Unfortunately, I don't think that's possible, or at least I don't know how to go about that. Scatter is awesome and fast, but limited in compatibility with other software. It would be nice if you could hit C to make the object editable, or something like that, or if there were an export function of some sort, but I don't think there is.
Ah that is a shame. Well thanks for replying and I really appreciate this kind of tutorials. Keep up the good work :)
If you go to "Display > Display Type > Object" you can hit "C" and it makes the clones editable.
Weird, the display mode works for me, but C still doesn't. I'm on 3.08 right now. What version are you running?
3.08.2 -- I usually have to change the display mode, wait for a minute or two until all the clones are actually displayed in the viewport, then hit c. Oh, and also - select both the scatter object and the object(s) below it before you hit c.
Not sure how I missed this one, great tut!
I'm having a problem getting my cubes to look as small as yours...mine are not as compact and look to big. Help?
Would be awesome if the hurrican was animated :D
Agreed! You could take that image and animate it with liquify in AE, then export a JPEG sequence and bring it in as an animated map driving scatter
^^ could you do this when you have time? please? :D
I don't have the resources to try that...
Throw the img-sequence onto an animated shader, not the shaders inside the scatter. put the shader effector inside the scatter. the scatter has an effector window:)
Thanks for the tutorial im doing it. How do you get this octane windows set up ?
Hey David, I recently got myself octane and I love how you're teaching. But I could not follow some parts of the tutorial. When I have black in the diffuse setting of my glossy material, the entire render is black no matter what I do with the specular. And if I use a different diffuse, I just can't seem to get the gleam you get with adjusting the daylight.
is it possible to achieve this without octane render in cinema4d?
this kind of displacement would break standard C4D displace deformer!
I'm a little late to the octane game. Is there a way to apply a single texture across the entire scatter field? or would I need to use the cloner to do this?
To be more succinct, how would one go about animating this and making it spin like a hurricane?
David, any planes for a tutorial on Octane with forester?
It's on my list for sure!
Hurricane image texture????
Creat Tuturial, love this. But i dont have Octane render :(
Can we get this in an ultra-wide format +David Ariew? ;)
hahaha yeah I prefer 44:9
My quantum epsilon kernel can't handle anything larger than 42:3.3r3. I'll pray harder.
OTOY's light be with you

Aaaaaaameeeeeennnn
i just cant seem to get the glean that you get off of glossy objects. I'm using octane for cinema 4d with the octane VR combo supscription pack. Am i missing render features if i dont get the full standalone?
You're not missing any features with the subscription version
David! Is there a way to apply the image/shader to the Scatter object that colors the clones based on the image?
yo Zubair! Not that I know of using scatter, though XP lets you do that for sure. That was definitely the most frustrating part of recording this tutorial because all the other render engines have that ability.
Is there a way to do this but not make it abstract? Like, could I write out text with this?
I love u.
HEy ! Grat tutorial by the way but i can't get the first tep , to add a noise and making this circular shapes , i only have Linear , even of changing the noise settings.
This is a bug in an older version of Octane. Make sure to upgrade to the newest version! If you look on the forums, and go to the Cinema 4D one, the thread at the top is labeled "Releases" and it has the latest version which is 3.07 Test6a.
hi from Spain!!!
Can we have your UI, sensei'???
Is this possible without octane?
Yes, check out Chris Schmidt's tutorial from a few years back on this technique with Physical and hair: vimeo.com/104735802
David Ariew Oh wow thanks
I wish i have octane
how strong does your pc have to be to handle this o.o
i got an 1080 and i can follow allong pretty easily...
its octane bro, the program is awesome
Anybody else notice how blue his eyes are?
They're dreamy
I tried this with an animated PNG sequence for my hurricane texture and it doesn't recognize the animated PNG sequence. It only recognizes the first frame. Even when I go to the animation tab and select calculate, it calculates everything and the preview even animates, but the scatter does not. Does anyone know what I might be missing?
try a JPEG sequence... Octane seems to like that better. Also make sure you're adding it into an octane image texture vs the default C4D bitmap.
Hey man, is it possible to get your C4D interface layout for using Octane Render? I have such a hard time setting it up for laptop like yours :)
Sure thing dude! www.dropbox.com/s/tfao1p68zmnp4i7/AWESOME%203.l4d?dl=0

Hey, how can i learn all this?
I mean without youtube tutorials...
most youtube tutorials are soo linear, but is there a channel that offers something like "advanced" basics? :/
Cineversity.com is a great resource!
thanks for reply :)
Can this be projected to an image?
Is it possible to animate this?
How do I get my sun to glare off of the cubes like in14.29?
Can that be done in Arnold?
hmm
Hello, this is awsome but there is any other way to do it with out the octane? thanks
As for right now this is a big feature only in Octane.
Thanks for the answer, i can´t buy octane for the moment , but i love this type of image, and I was wondering if there is another way to do this with out the octane, I´ve checked your other tutorial "how to creat a topographic map in ...." but is not the same.
nah theyre totally different unfortunately. Octane does have a $20/month subscription that I am actually using to try it out, you can also download the demo for free and play around!
pls help me, i following this tutorial but my octane render live was blank :(
you can make it with hair and plane
Please share this scene file, thanks so much.
Hi anyone have any idea why when I go to use a noise as my shader it does not reflect a noise it just has lines across the scatters? Noise seems to be non existent.
Upgrade to the newest version of the plugin. It's a bug!
David thank you very much for the reply, will have update.
How much is octane if you want it forever
$619 for the bundled standalone and C4D plugin
David Ariew Thanks man. On the web it says you need a license with the pack
hi guys, anyone knows how can I do this thing in red shift?
from where have you got this hurricane image?
www.google.co.uk/search?q=hurricane+image&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjiza_Sl5HaAhUICsAKHZEvB0sQ_AUICigB&biw=1745&bih=850#imgrc=xFFv4uq3eP84-M:
Sorrow Alpen Thx! 😊
Can we do this in blender?
Octane is in Blender, I believe, so it should work!
is it need a graphic card ???
Yes Octane and other GPU renderers require a certain kind of GPU
Hi David, thanks a lot for the tut! Awesome work, as usual :) I have a question, im having a weird pattern with my Noise, i followed the same simple steps. here a link for what i have, seams like the Noise orientation isnt good, but how to correct it? Thanks a lot! Link: ibb.co/cN6MrG
This is a common issue that's fixed by upgrading to the newest version of Octane!
Having same problem here..... install octane latest version.... just downloaded it form website.... but not working
Solved the problem...... using r17 demo version in c4d r18.......
keep in mind the latest versions aren't directly through the website -- you have to go to the otoy forums and then the cinema 4d forum, and there's a thread called releases
Honestly, this is not a C4D tutorial. You should put Octane first in the titel because most people dont have octane yet and cant afford it yet and they see a cool picture next to a titel saying cinema 4d tutorial and basically the only thing that is used from cinema is an object, so many people do this with their tutorials and renders, claiming they rendered it with c4d when they rendered it with octane. Getting quite tired of this bullshit. Not gonna dislike the tutorial but not gonna like it either, just stating my personal opinion.
Octane is in the title and clearly laid out in the description so unsure why you're upset? Not reading the title is not the fault of the tutorial maker.
Octane's only $20/month!
I know its in the titel, im just simply stating that theres so many cinema 4d Tutorials out there that basically use octane for viewers, maybe im abit conspiring here, yes you have octane mentioned last in the titel and all im saying is without octane that look is impossible to achieve, or rather, with C4D standard or physical render that look is impossible to achieve. But ye, I can see that im being an asshole, sry about that.
Haha no worries man...well to be fair...that image couldn't be created without cinema 4d either, so it goes both ways! You should really give octane a go and see what all the fuss is about! At least try the demo! you can then follow along to stuff like this and see if you like it! Cheers, bud! :)
In this case there's Chris Schmidt's version of how to do this in Physicial, as I pointed out in the tutorial: greyscalegorilla.com/tutorials/fast-3d-topographies-in-cinema-4d-tutorial/
Is there any alternative to octanescatter?
can we achieve the same with physical or pro render? please reply ?
Yes, follow Chris Schmidt's tutorial that I show at the beginning of this tut.
