3D artist and drinker of coffee noahwitchell.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/noahschmoah.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/noahschmoah.bsky.social/post/3lzjdwodeis2pCan't say enough good things about Pro Particles for Blender. The developer took it from a few geo nodes setups to a juggernaut of an addon for particles. Super responsive too - I've suggested a few things to implement and they're always there by the next version! https://superhivemarket.com/products/pro-particles23 Sep 2025 16:31 +0000at://did:plc:k5ph5bb3jbdacyur4p6tsuh2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lzjdwodeis2phttps://bsky.app/profile/noahschmoah.bsky.social/post/3lxk6uolt6c24I found a texture importer for C4D that let's you bring in maps as complete materials for most render engines. If you've spent any amount of time trying to convert an Octane file to Corona or a Redshift file back to Standard, you KNOW how much time this saves: https://www.thegreatsummit.com/product/tgs-texture-manager/29 Aug 2025 13:43 +0000at://did:plc:k5ph5bb3jbdacyur4p6tsuh2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lxk6uolt6c24https://bsky.app/profile/noahschmoah.bsky.social/post/3lbtbwuztf22cIf you've ever tried to build dispersion into a shader in Cycles, you know what a pain that can be. This shader set makes it a simple plug and play solution, with really crispy caustics and thin film effects to boot!

Something like 75 in all. www.noahwitchell.com/freebies23 Nov 2024 17:06 +0000at://did:plc:k5ph5bb3jbdacyur4p6tsuh2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lbmy4ur4wc2shttps://bsky.app/profile/noahschmoah.bsky.social/post/3larg5x5cqs2eOne of the main driving factors for that is speed. Eevee is damned fast, and Cycles is only marginally slower for a look that I would consider on par with using Corona in C4D. Things that would require overnight rendering on my render machine are taking less than an hour on my workstation now.12 Nov 2024 18:03 +0000at://did:plc:k5ph5bb3jbdacyur4p6tsuh2/app.bsky.feed.post/3larg5x5cqs2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/noahschmoah.bsky.social/post/3larfwsmpt22eI've been a C4D user for the last 12 years and there's a lot that I love about it, but for this job I'm on I've used it less than five times all season. I've done most everything in Blender instead and while I may not be canceling my subscription to C4D any time soon it sure feels like a sea change.12 Nov 2024 17:59 +0000at://did:plc:k5ph5bb3jbdacyur4p6tsuh2/app.bsky.feed.post/3larfwsmpt22ehttps://bsky.app/profile/noahschmoah.bsky.social/post/3l3tndnt5rx2hSo there's not much of a 3D/motion community on here yet, huh?11 Sep 2024 00:11 +0000at://did:plc:k5ph5bb3jbdacyur4p6tsuh2/app.bsky.feed.post/3l3tndnt5rx2h
