Hello,

I am looking for karma texturing tutorials, especially about abstract material creation,

- adding different noises,
- overlaying different textures,
- making rocks using displacement & bump maps,
- creating terazzo like textures, adding gradients with a direction
- creating textures using intersection of objects,
- creating PBR textures and overlaying colors and patterns on top of them.

Mostly I come across Redshift tutorials, however I am interested in Karma Renderer, are there any good tutorials on Karma, specifically about texturing?

I am also interested in good Pateron sites and other advices as well.

Thank you for your time!

Hello,

Thank you very much for your help.

This was very helpful in general and yes, I didn't realize I was mixing the inputs at pathdeform...


I tried to simulate both with hairs and curves and with grid and then used pathdeform. When I simulated with hairs, of course I suddenly had a lot of flying single 'pipes' and it didn't give me the result I aimed.

So I used surfaces to simulate, I used pointdeform to map bunch of splines on these surfaces and I sweeped them.

The path deform didn't work but I followed Entagma tutorial recreating the pathdeform with pointwranlges.

Again, thank you very much for your reply.

Hello,

I am trying to simulate a geometry in vellum with cloth constraints.

When I use multiple simple grids with fairly high subdivisions, I manage to get good results. However, when I try to simulate the same with gigh polycount geometry (an array of cylinders) I end up having very long cache times. So it has been very hard to update the vellum simulation (forces like wind etc.)

Is there a way to simulate with a grid and change these after the simulation to more complex geometry?

I tried to use point deform, however the results are quite bad.
I looked in to vellum rest blend but I believe it is not that helpful, since I need to input same amount of polycount at the begining.

Am I doing something wrong? How can I be more efficient?

Thanks in advance
Omer
