About 21:45 in the video I go over the dust (sorry, should have broken up the video into 2). I used these: www.artstation.com/marketplace/p/1Vxmz/easydust
@@Pixelfondue Amazing. Built my own ones inside of Houdini. Your reference video worked awesome! Thanks a lot for the dope content - cant wait for more
this is weird, but the spotlight just doesn't work for me at all. I turn ON the "Octane Volumetric Spot Light" in the settings, turned ON "Visible to Camera" and it just doesn't appear in the scene at all. Tried moving it around, changed the radius and cone angle settings and nothing. very strange. Is there any other setting I might be missing?
@@Pixelfondue I'm having the same problem. Octane just doesn't seem to see spot lights at all. Edit: Nevermind, crank the intensity up to 1000, check visible to camera, turn on Octane volumetric and it shows up. Edit 2: Now it's working with the intensity at reasonable levels. 🤷♂
Go over to the Pixel Fondue discord and there's a sample volume spotlight scene for download in the Octane Content section, along with a bunch of other stuff. Worth looking at if you're learning Octane (invite is in the main PF channel page) @@williamreinhard
It has a limitation of 1920x1080 and it's missing some high end features but ya it's free :). When you download it, it will install every other version of Nuke on your computer though and you can't access them. A bit unnecessary on that end.
@@loganpenciu7317 ok. had to be a catch of some kind. Still - pretty cool to be able to learn Nuke for free and then pay for if a job comes along. That's a pretty fair business model.
Excellent stuff Greg! I am really getting into octane now, thanks to your videos!
yeah, they're moving right along. 2022 public 'experimental' build is out with a bunch of new stuff
Great tutorial Greg - I didn't know about the hold-key-down-select technique (for shame).
Yeah, it's easy to forget - so many little workflow enhancers in MODO
Amazing video, I can imagine using this for some kind of sci fi image made of data points.
there is in octane 2021 a spotlight distribution node that can be hooked into the lights, could work the same with polygon and area lights.
thanks, I'll take a look at that.
@@Pixelfondue great, your octane content is king.
@@OmarTavera Thanks : ) - def. going to be a lot of Octane/OTOY in 2022
21:49 Dust tutorial
thanks, I should have put that in the description...this was way too long.
How did you create the Dust fiber particles?

Try cranking up the intensity to 500 - just to see

whaaat? there's a non-commercial, free Nuke?! O_o'

You can actually use it to load and comp high res images (the one in the video is 8K). I think the 1080 limit is on export.
