Blender Quick Tips - Better Glass In Three Minutes

Blender Quick Tips is a series of short video guides showing you quick and easy ways to improve your Blender workflow. This video covers a method of making less noisy glass which can be rendered with a low sample count. This better glass material acts as a transparent material on multiple passes through a glass material, reducing noise and improving the overall render time.

BROOOO I've been looking for a solution for hours now and this one freaking video has that. ThankYou

[omjeeo]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate this. It has made my glass look a million times better.

Great tutorial. Love the Huggy Bear soundtrack

[dekba]

Great tip, thanks. That music though adds nothing and is distracting.

I was about to give up, you are a savior

[sanjayprajapati]

Perfect glass material that i was searching thanks

[thuytientranthi]

This is the best glass shader that i ever know untill now 💯 I really appreciate, thank you so much for your sharing ❤❤❤

[DonLow]

Thank you for the tips... it works wonderfully.

[GreenMagic]

Please don't use music in your videos! Great videos anyway.

[a.miroshin]

Super! It speed up glass rendering a little bit

[baybay]

thank youu, my glass now looks like real

[HUED]

love your work!
thanks this helps alot

[icedriver]

cool tip. I almost passed this one by

Thanks for the video. It's very helpful. It's exactly what I was looking for.
Just a suggestion, the background music is a little bit noisy and I was trying to hear what you say.

Look up audio ducking to help with the music problem

Really appreciate this idea! With Blender do they have AOVs to show the noise from any render pass? In Redshift or Arnold, I could render just the noise passes such that I could DECREASE the albedo, ..., etc., and INCREASE only the samples of the noisy render passes... This way, though front loaded slower, I got fast renders. Redshift was still 7x faster than Arnold, but cycles is close to Redshift, (e-cycles has only been about 10% faster for me on a 1080ti bitminer GPU) and I don't know the render engine well enough to know if this can be done as well natively in cycles, but I do know the default settings are totally inconsistent with reality most of the time.
12 min video? I'd watch that.

i bet this would work great in many cases! sadly it doesn't work for mine :( this method stops all light from shining thru it,

[mythicalmonke]

i am a beginner and i was making the gyrosphere from Jurrasic world and I didn't know how to make the sphere glass but now I do thanks to you :D

[hillfortherstudios]

My glass is super wavy with jagged edges in the render. Do you know what I may be doing wrong?

[hopolo]

great music selection. the haters don't know jack. keep up the great work. subbed.
