Current tutorial image change

July 23, 2012
Hey all!

I've been thinking about the image I wanted to use for the cover of the 3D tutorial and although the current one looks cool, it is still very much like looking into a bumpy cube = no proper depth for different positions.

So the plan is to not only finish the tutorial today, but to also fix the cover image and hopefully get it posted tomorrow!

If it works (and I pray it does, because it really seems like the HOLY SPIRIT's leading), the new cover will be a very cool surprise. If you see the current one, you and I both know it was not HIS leading, lol.

Have a great one!!

PS, the winner for the Photo-Realism competition gets announced later today (about 6-4 hours). So keep an eye here and on BlenderGuru.com.

Thank YOU!!!!!!!!!

Hey all!

I was working on the tutorial and the test scene was really not doing the effect justice, so I decided to add the method to an old, highly detailed scene I did a while back; the music room.

You can see the depth the clearest along the sofa on the right, the piano's cover over the guitar and on the music stand next to the wall.

It clearly shows that the effect does work and works well in a scene, but as it goes, the final image will always be darker in this case, because the anaglyph's b...

Started with the 3D tutorial today!!

Hey all!!

I started with the 3D render tutorial today and it is going well, but the scene I used is really not making the method look good, so I am very much considering redoing it, so the final result will be a more realistic representation of what you would get in an actual scene. Maybe applying it to an existing project as a proper example for the cover. The music room should do a good job (^^,).

Not promising, but will let ya know when it is ready for download!! (^v^)

Have a great day!!
Thank...

Hopefully work starts on the 3D tutorial today

Exactly what the title says, lol.

I have looked at the node system since the last post on this topic and have seen there is a bit of excess nodes that really don't need to be there, so the final node systems may differ a bit in the tutorial.

I have also tested the side-by-side color version and I am pleased to report that it does indeed work and is ordered correctly. Sadly I don't know how to fix some of the ghosting issues, but they are minor if you don't overdo the depth settings. Maybe some ...
