    First I was afraid, I was petrified
    Kept thinking I could never generate a planetside.
    But then I spent so many nights thinking how I'd get it done.
    And I was wrong
    Blender sure got pretty strong.
    And now you're back
    From outer space
    I just clicked this thumbnail to see your sexy mustache face.
    I shouldn't have bought a Maya key,
    should have learned Blender cuz it's free.
    If I'd known you'd make tutorials
    I'd have saved some sweet cash money.

    Thanks for the tutorial! I just started in blender and I feel like this video helped me understand better how a few of the nodes work, which is really nice. In other tutorials I've watched, I've used nodes like the mix RGB and color ramp, but I wasn't really understanding what they were doing until now. And this turned out looking super cool!

    you really need an overlay that shows which keys you are pressing! There are moments like at 4:32 where you just click and it makes an entire new node and quickly links it together but have no idea how you did that... for just one example. But love the video, keep it up!

    Pro tip. For a less realistic but better shadow quality (note the weird double shadow in Eevee), use a spot light and stick a secondary fill spot on the opposite side of the 'sun' spotlight. Then try to catch them in the planet's water reflection.

    This video was super helpful! I was able to get my planet looking how I want in eevee preview, but when I switch to cycles, it doesn't seem to work. Specifically, I had it set to where all water surfaces would appear shiny but the land was not reflective. In cycles however, the land looks even shinier than the water, to the point that it looks like metal. Is there some fundamental difference between how the two render engines or is it likely an issue with my computer?

    • @CriticalGiants
      @CriticalGiants  3 года назад +26

      Hi Kevin, I haven't gotten around to them yet, but my initial idea for it would be to greate a color ramp in the z direction, then create a couple of layers, and then mix in a noise with a high distortion, I will most likely do a version 2 of planets at some point :)

    If you want more accurate clouds or you want to play with the actual rotation of the clouds, press Command + T or Control + T on the noise texture for the clouds and/or textures. You can also make the noise texture 4D to have essentially the same settings but with a "Seed" factor.

    @richedge8667 3 года назад +2

    Nice work. I don't know if you plan on doing another planet tutorial? I've made a procedral planet pretty successfully including displacement to raise the land mass a little. For the clouds I'm trying to achieve a volume cloud layer that can be viewed from above or below, like from outer space or from ground level. Right now I have clouds touching the ground and reaching right up to the border of the sphere ending with a hard edge, so.. not looking too good at the mo.
    Now trying several node combo's like Texture Coordinate - Object to Vector into Gradient Texture (set to Spherical) then factor to factor into Colour Ramp.. trying to find a gradient, ramp or whatever that will hollow out the clouds inside the sphere leaving an outer layer which tapers off gradually into outer space - if that makes sense. IDK if I should maybe hollow the cloud sphere out like boolean it with another sphere? Thanks for what you're doing, looks great. Trying to get something I can zoom into, fly beneath the atmosphere and then back out.
