Also the scale of your models which is neglected by alot of beginners , Human eye is really good and pointing scale so I'd advice all the beginners to start using some kind of real sized object (Like a human ) in your scene to better help in the giving a realism effect
@KaizenTutorials 10 місяців тому
Good one! All the assets in this video automatically have the right scale. So that’s already easy!
@PrometheusPhamarus 10 місяців тому
I don´t see scaling of the models as an issue at all in this case, as mentioned, objects seem to be of correct natural scale, and as for as referencing other objects like a human, which often is a good idea, not really necessary, when so many other nature elements we are used to is presented here, it´s not like I would go out in the real nature and see no human and think it´s not real, the elements of natural size is there in this picture. Foremost, i´s the shadow contrast that is way off, most natural photos (not counting in crappy pictures now) do have that darker shadows, less GI within dense vegetation, global illumination is absorbed, not bouncing in those areas in the same manner as those leafs and surfaces more external exposed to either direct sunlight or overcast lighting. Then as mentioned, leaf distributiona and I would also say shading of leafs, translucancy could be enhanced.
@PrometheusPhamarus 10 місяців тому
I also think that it could be a haze, fog setting further back that washes out that contrast of dark shadows, shadows are in fact more darker att smaller bushes closer to the camera, but get´s bleached out furhter away, but even if there would be fog, haze, it would look a bit different and not that uniform ..and still it would have deeper shadows, or more obscured by actual fog or mist, not GI illuminated by it. Mist fog and illuminate to some degree, but it requires a certain intensity and angle of the sun to have that effect. The background seem to be an image, and also mountains based on an image, I think it could use real volume clouds there, seems the background environment and it´s light isn´t consistent with true environments.
@PrometheusPhamarus 10 місяців тому
And more...think about the color of the sun on the vegetation which is a bit warm and yellow greenish saturated, while the background and color of the sky do not pick that up, of course not the greenish, but the sky and slight cloud layer should have a different color than it currently has.. it´s inconsistent with natural lighting..that tells you that something is off natural. So I think it´s a bit of a shame here that you didn´t cover one of the most important aspects, lighting, environment light and sky backdrop that effects the whole scene.

It is really important for some shots yes. It's equally important to not have it in other shots. It depends on what you're trying to get. In the end mimicing a real camera is the way to go. So using DOF and setting a proper focal point are the most important things to do!

You can leave it default in some cases. But usually I try and find a simple grass, ground, rock material (depending on the environment) to cover it. Just to make sure that if a part of it pops up in a render it's not white.

Im still very new to Blender but everytime I watch a video on Geometry nodes people say its better on your computer or less intensive in general but when I add some trees or grass it runs just like if I used the Hair particles, I feel like I'm doing something wrong but I followed several tutorials step by step copying their exact Geometry node setup and I cant hardly make it past adding trees or it gets too laggy. My PC isn't the greatest but its also not awful (Ryzen 5 5600x and RX 6700xt). Im making sure to only add things that effects the outcome of the image so I don't have a lot of unecesarry trees. Other than this issue Im loving Blender, I wanted to get into it for years but I was always scared of how complicated it looks. I still have a long way to go but Im learning as a go, I really shouldn't have put off learning for so long.
@KaizenTutorials 9 місяців тому
Its always a battle between what your PC can handle and what you want to add. As in the video GScatter is pretty optimized and has additional tools for optimization. Nonetheless, even using instances in geonodes vs particles, using trees which consist of 1,5million polys each will always be rough. Try finding assets with proper LOD’s and implement lod systems to make sure only assets in the front actually use high poly and further back low poly versions.

It is entirely reactive. All inputs update per frame, you just have to supply your character/vehicle or any other object as a target object. In Gscatter, you can for example use a Proximity Effect on the Rotation Tab, with your character as target. Then plants, will turn away naturally when your character moves through grass, or bushes.

Can you briefly explain the difference between G Satter and GEO Scatter, in terms of performance and mode of operation? As far as I could understand, G Scatter works on the principle of geometry nodes, while GEO Scatter uses a particle system. I use GEO Scatter; honestly, it's not as simple as it seems. A lot of optimization is needed in order not to overload the scene. I wonder if G Satter is different?
@KaizenTutorials 10 місяців тому
Yeah so GScatter will still require optimization, but the main difference is that since its using GeoNodes it’s only instancing the assets. These instances are lighter on your PC than particles. Plus Gscatter offers aan easy camera culling tool that further optimizes it. Also it can use the distribution masks to create scatter realism and further optimization. I haven’t user geoscatter myself but if it uses particles its going to be unoptimized compared to GScatter. GScatter is also really easy to use. Hope that helps!

@Loundlim 9 місяців тому
Hi! Thanks for the great tutorial! The most important thing for me that learned here was that you need more diversity in plant species. That however comes at the cost of more models and textures. I noticed that you are using a GPU with 8GB of Vram and that you sometimes got pretty close to using all of it. Im working on a pretty huge scene at the moment and Im struggeling a lot with my 8GB of Vram to the point where Im strongly considering buying a GPU with 16 GB or more just to be able to render my scene. Do you have any tips on how to work with low Vram restrictions with scenes like the ones you showed throughout the video?
@KaizenTutorials 9 місяців тому
Thanks, glad you like it and yes you're absolutely right. More variety means more VRAM being used. I often run into issues with my 8GB, where I run out of GPU memory. Honestly I haven't found a proper solution for this besides mostly trying to limit my other textures in the scene or rendering in separate render layers. So either limit the texture for for example the ground, or some background rock element or mountain can help save a lot. I also try to optimize the scene as much as possible using GScatter! And if that's not enough you'll have to go into separating layers. So for example you do a render layer with only foliage, 1 with sticks and rocks, 1 with trees, 1 with all other meshes etc. This can help lighten the load, since you're not loading a lot of the other textures.

@@KaizenTutorials Thanks for the answer! Renderlayers could certainly help, but that could become a bit of a struggle to composite later on. One solution is to render on the CPU, since more regular RAM isn't such a big deal to get but CPU rendering is just so absurdly slow in comparison that it feels like it would be worth to get a second GPU to me
@KaizenTutorials 9 місяців тому
Yeah thats true
@Jofoyo 8 місяців тому
@@KaizenTutorials Limit amount of textures, as well as texture resolution. Afaik, Cycles still does not support texture compression or mipmapping or anything like that, so a single 4k bitmap comes out to be something like 200 MB in VRAM. You can also get more mileage out of your textures by using packed textures like in game development. Roughness can be stored in your normal maps alpha channel for instance, or combining roughness specular metalness into one images RGB channels and separating them out in Blender. Alternatively remove those images entirely and just use the sliders, which you can easily get away with if your asset is only used in the background. And yeah, you can always render on CPU if left no other choice. The bonus there is you can pretty much render with any amount of RAM. If really short on it though, you may need to adjust your virtual memory paging file size.

@KaizenTutorials 10 місяців тому
@MrBrownielicious no I didn’t do anything. Just straight up made the scene and rendered it. It might be your texture sizes. The graswald assets are optimized so that might also be the case. Nonetheless no issues for me…

Ive been searching around extensively for pro tips on plants I want my plants to feel...interesting. the fruit snaps off the stem, the leaves bend and sway to touch, they "grow" whether literally or using game dev magic, looking like the world is actively ageing around you. Lets take bamboo for example, simple in shape but complex in uses. A single section could be a cup, a whole stem could be a staff, and a sharp something shoved into the top could make it a spear. You could make a door by stringing together bamboo pieces, a whole house if youre patient enough. Oh, did i mention its for vr? So the "feel" is more magnified. What makes videogame plants interesting to you? What makes them more than just a background texture when you look at them? Im curious as heck!
@KaizenTutorials 8 місяців тому
Thats cool and sounds ambitious! Cg plants to me are interesting because they make the world feel alive. And they can tell a story. About where you are, about the state of the environment, about the season and so much more :-)

does it look unrealistic if you have it less blurry? (talking about the end result)
@KaizenTutorials 10 місяців тому
Not necessarily no. I chose a lot of depth of field because I like the way it looks in the scene and because i tried to compare it to the reference
@michellegiacalone1079 10 місяців тому
0:33 The first thing I did with this was to copy and color correct it. One common mistake I see with these is that the scene is too uniformly one color and the lighting is too uniform- not enough dark shadow and too much blue. The lack of contrast is always a givaway.
@KaizenTutorials 10 місяців тому
I agree! But then again most mobile phone photos and such look very much like that. So achieving realism (imitating amateuristic quality) works in that regard 👍🏻

The secret to realism in 3D in general not just foliage is layers ;) at least in my opinion. Obviously sone people might think otherwise
@KaizenTutorials 6 місяців тому
You're absolutely right. It's the general secret to realism. The more layers of detail there are, the less your brain is able to pick up the small things that make it look CG.

@@KaizenTutorials I thought that at first too, but there were cases where I added subsurface scattering and the result still looked like I didn't (I have no idea why), so I didn't know if you did. Also would be a pain in the butt to adjust all the materials!

Namaste sir, I am working on a project in which I have downloaded objects like character, house, car, tree and created a blender scene set in which I placed some objects here and there. Did the mouse wheel move forward backward and used them to make them 3d. viewport clipping is very expensive, view tab me end value is 100000 then viewport clipping is happening, how to fix it 😓 please 🙏any solution
