BLENDER TUTORIAL: EPIC TOWER COLLAPSE with rbdlab!

Finally somebody made an addon that makes the process of creating a COMPLETE AND HUGE destruction simulation so easy and powerful! Which normally in blender would reaquire an eternal amount of time and frustration and would also not give the same good result!

This scene, complete with hig details pieces, particles and smoke, has been really created in less then 40 mnutes only thanks to the addon (time for baking-render not included of course!)

note: this addon is being updated day by day, the version that I use in this video might be a little different compared with the one that you will get when you watch the video, anyway the workflows dont change.

Thanks for the amazing tutorial Raffo! Looking forward to using it soon.

Without even watching it full, i can say this is a good tutorial just by seeing the first couple of minutes.

There we go! Getting even closer to that production quality!!

After party note: you dont really need to convert the phisics to keyframes like I did at 21:11.
Still the tutotial perfectly does his job regardless.

Great Tutorial with Clear explanation 👌Thanks Man 💜

Excellent tutorial for what can be one of the more confusing addons for Blender, thanks for making many of the options a lot clearer for users!

We are getting closer and closer to houdini level. This was really good.

The job is very good. But the sound is good too. So natural. Congratulations.

Watched the whole thing, now i am watching a second time to follow trough. When i simulate all the chunks that are cuted from the inside have no texture, how did you fix that?
Edit: Nevermind, i just saw it that it spawns the material and i have to fix that myself in the material.

what would blender be without this addon!!!

Hi Raffo! Thanks for this incredible tutorials, I've been always wanting to do destruction sims in Blender but find it unintuitive until I see this. I do have a question tho, I've done this a few time, but around 18:30, after I messed up with the settings and saved a few different blend. file for each results, when I open the file again, the physics no longer work. Any idea how I can fix this?

Spettacolo, semplicemente spettacolare :) Grande!

[michaeloshinvisuals]

I'm saying this again, it would be mind-blowing if Blender can collab with Embergen somehow. I mean look what Blender alone can create 🤯

[rectangularities]

very nice tutorial, helped me a lot, also can I get the sound effect you used in this animation please ?

[coldspark]

Great Tutorial 😁 . I got the addon, but my Particles have different material than the object . can you please tell me how to change it ?

[archlyn]

Great tutorial! I'll be viewing his numerous times. A quick newbie question: Is it possible to make the larger chunks further breakup when they hit the ground? Thanks again, love your instructional manner.

Hi I'm really new to blender.. I've been only using it for 3 or 4 months now...I purchased this addon however when i try to use fracture and destruction to another other buildings or structures that i let's downloaded from sketchfab the addon doesn't seem to work...is there a trick or any specific type if assets i need to look out for in order to use this addon? I am not good with modeling buildings and stuff...any advice?

When I add extra details there are some parts of the model that disappear, what could this error be?
