  1. Hey! I just wanted to say that you can do the normal map in Photoshop! If you want to do the normal map in PS then, open your image in Photoshop and go to Filter, then 3D, and click on Generate Normal Map… From there it will open a menu and you can pick your options!! I hope this helps!

  2. I have an issue if someone could help 🙁 , i want to scale my plane up after adding the bump map and everything but then the texture looks too big so i repeat it using a mapping node but then all of my bump map and reflections stay as the original size of the image and not the new duplicated image using mapping node , please help how i can work around this

  3. great video but u need to take more time explain everything you're doing, you went super fast over things that might be easy for someone that is a more seasoned blender user. But for beginners trying to learn the basics, you go way to quick.

  4. Dude this tutorial is good but you go WAAAY too fast. Most people that search these tutorials out are novices, who are learning how to do this at home. Everything I know about Blender has been pieced together through disparate tutorials, so it would be nice if you'd approach the video with the assumption that I don't have any idea what you're doing. Some of the stuff is fine to skip; I'm assuming if you know about texturing, you'd know about how to navigate in the program. Fine, and tutorials that go over that stuff are annoying.

    But Cycles Render? I've never used it before, and had no idea I needed to switch over to it. You're talking about just 'adding a sphere', well, okay, I've never used materials before, I've never made an object emit light, and you're blowing through these things so quickly I have to pause and go second-by-second to even have a chance to follow along. YOU might be a Blender Guru, but we are Blender novices! Are you making these for the general public, or industry professionals? Come on, now, learning should be more accessible than this.

  5. Blender guru (or anyone els) id like help I Am trying to make my own games and i not only struggle with Making textures realistic in unreal engine because they come out blurry but i struggle with everything els! Modeling in blender'understanding unreal'trying to find a good sound program to make music and sounds for my games And so much more! Do you think you could do anything to help fix my problems?

  6. Andrew,
    Thanks for this amazing tutorial! It was very helpful and I'm impressed with how much I've improved from this tutorial alone.
    But I have a problem now
    Whenever I go into Blender, and follow all of the steps (Cycles, all the correct nodes, etc), it always renders a smooth blank plane. I keep getting the error "Uninitialized Image 'Concrete11'.jpg from object plane" Can you help me? I'm really confused and don't know why this is happening.
