I Started UPGRADING Modifiers in Blender (Arrays)

🔶 We are replacing the Array modifier with Geometry Nodes to make it work with a collection.

Geometry Nodes are replacing Modifiers, Simulations and Particles in Blender. In today's video we replace the traditional array modifier with an improved geometry nodes version in Blender 3.6.
Project file will be available soon!

Cool to see David Bowie explaining geo nodes❤

[@justjules5831]

I thought he was Morten Harket ❤

[@red4666]

can you create a Displace PLUS modifier? it's just a regular Displace modifier but with the added ability of triplanar mapping an input image (with blending values where the planes meet). right now if you want to do procedural uv mapping via geo nodes you have to send it back to the material and that's not what i want.

Beautiful tutorial

[@SupahLuke]

Great tutorial as always! Underrated fr

[@Mr_Steve3D]

Not sure where you have been but just found you and I am glad about it. There are not to many people doing what you are doing

[@danialsoozani]

same here!!!! I subscribed and hit the bell for all notifs :D

[@valovanonym]

Nice work !

[@notimportantstudio]

Dude such a good video, im learning allot

[@InterruptingOctopus]

say we wanted to stack some objects in a specific order instead of randomized; what would need to be altered to allow for that?

[@StrayCreations]

We would have to replace the random value node with a system that picks the instances in the order of how they are stored in the collection. Perhaps you could figure it out by using the instance index of the collection and a modulo (math) node set to the domain size (instances) of the collection. I would have to dive back into this system to give you a full solution though :)

[@InterruptingOctopus]

I've also been experimenting with feeding geometry generated within the node tree using geometry to instance, the issue with that is they dont exactly have Origins in the traditional sense. so what i've been doing is using the improved bounding box to divide the size output by 2 and feeding it into a transform node's translation in the hopes that it would then align with the object origin that the whole tree shares. so far this hasnt been fruitful on the Z axis as the shapes are lower than they need to be.
Edit: i realized that the issue was due to the multiply math node feeding into the sample indexs for the new bounding box was at the wrong value. so my mistake

[@InterruptingOctopus]

​@@StrayCreations an update to that, as a matter of fact having an index node and domain size (instance) node feed into a modulo instead of subtract+random value does in fact put the instances in order!

[@PiononoMatic]

sos un genio, muchisimas gracias!

[@melderstudios2924]

thankyou!

[@UnchartedWorlds]

Trying this in 3.5.1 and I fail to level them at 17:35, everything else seemed to have work to that point.
