#DONUT PARTICLES BLENDER GURU MOD#
#DONUT PARTICLES BLENDER GURU FULL#

The torus is hidden from render and so is the icing since it’s the emitter for the particles, and it’s hidden from the particle system settings Don’t know why the particles still not show up, it’s not apparent from the shots. What those shots show is that you haven’t enabled ‘use modifier stack’ setting, and the emitter is set not to render in the second. Of course the bulk of the information would be in the.

That’s with one full interface screenshot which takes less time than me writing this paragraph. The interface has information all around you can include in a shot without writing anything: blender version, active render engine which also affects the viewport, viewport/object modes from the header that explain what you’re showing in the 3D view, outliner hint object types, and whatever else might by chance hint the cause of the problem. There are still other problem, the sprinkles are not laying on the donut but some looked to stick up. My monitor is 4K, a screenshot takes a lot of sizes. The other website editor complained when I include so many graphics. blend conveys the most information for actual troubleshooting, and is needed for visuals such as screenshots or even a video. There are a lot of settings that affect one thing and then the other, and it’s just guesses at best without knowing which. A screenshot only help you explain something.

Include the whole interface when asking questions so it contains the feedback from the interface, but don’t assume the screenshot or what you tell is enough information to actually help you. Speaking of setup, I see you’re using cropped screenshots like so many others.

adjusted the particle system settings to follow the new setup.

weight paint mode, deleted the existing vertex group to paint a new one, and painted where the particles should go.

:) Nothing but respect for Andrew - and love Ian Hubert's Lazy TutorialsPatreon. Used shortcuts like alt+B for clipping border on/off to see it better, S to scale, and alt+S to move mesh element closer/away Donut Blender 2.8 Tutorial obviously done purely in good fun.

adjusted the mesh a bit to get it closer to the surface of the object underneath.

When I pressed alt-S, I don’t know what effect it had but nothing visible happened.

I moved the particles mod up and switched from 1.0 to -1.0 and back but it still refuses to show the sprinkles on the top. These might sound too involved or advanced but they’re not really, just harder to explain and would have to put visual instructions if the above aren’t adequate. Other ways to do it would be to apply the solidify modifier and use a vertex group to limit the particles on the top surface, or could duplicate the mesh and model that as the emitter for the particles, but hiding the emitter itself from render, which can be done in particle system properties -> render. If you want to move the mesh because the changed solidify offset, could do that by selecting all in edit mode, and then shrink/fatten (alt+S) to get it closer or away from the dough. One way to do that is to move the particle system modifier on the top, and then tell solidify modifier to switch the direction it creates the thickness on the object by changing the offset to the other side. Enabling that option would make it put the particles on all surfaces.īut you probably only want it on the top surface. Except the particle system hasn’t been told to follow those.

First the mesh gets a thickness, then it gets subdivided and smoothed with subdivision, and then there’s the particle system that goes over the result from those two.

There are often several ways to do something in Blender, and it’s useful to be exposed to them all as you go along.The modifier stack order is from top down. I actually prefer method of using a Shinkwrap modifier now, but it makes sense to stick with the techniques a tutorial offers. If you start with something more bite size, introduced by an instructor who doesn’t ramble nor jump around randomly (like Joseph’s recommendation Grant Abbitt, who’s my favourite Blender tutor) you’ll very quickly be able to do that donut by yourself without any problems. I started with that too, and almost dropped Blender completely because it was so frustrating to follow. Please don’t lose heart because of the bloody donut. That’s supposed to snap only to the target that the source was initially near, which should be the donut surface. In your place the one thing I see that could help is checking Snap to Same Target. I haven’t responded because I am still on 3.1 and snapping has changed a lot since, so none of my old techniques will work. Welcome to the Fellowship of the Torus of Doom.
