Scene Node tutorials on Youtube

[Jeff H1]

This guy has started doing tutorials on Scene Nodes.   Leaving it here, since not many at Maxon are spending time making Youtube tutorials on their own Scene nodes.

That looks brilliant! Such a smart and elegant tree generator.  I was not expecting that.

would be nice if Maxon could sponsor a couple of his future videos.   Get him some recognition, views and more willing to create more content.    I know it's not that simple.

That's because they are under development and can change a lot. A tutorial series now can be irrelevant in a year.

true but Blender geo nodes had tutorials throughout their alpha/beta cycles since the beginning.   Those changed quite a bit throughout development.  Bifrost nodes changed throughout the years.  Things change.    It shouldn't preclude people from writing about it.   I guess the best method is just to not have them available until they are completely developed and won't be tweaked at all for about 5 years?

Seems like a huge assumption that it's still under development.

It's not, recently a member of Maxon I spoke to referred to it as experimental and under improvement. Let's hope C4D 2024 will give more clues as to where this is going.

In any case I don't think there is any thing wrong with doing videos about Neutron (or whatever Maxon is calling it now) at any particular stage in development.  The tree branch/lightning generator thing that guy built is amazing as is and it's the concept and clever approach behind it that is most interesting. If some nodes or specific connections change in the future it will still be easy to rebuild using the same concepts, just as it would probably be easy to rebuild even in other already well established node systems like Houdini and others.

At the moment we only have a select few producing dedicated scene nodes tutorials, but I think we can expect more and more of those as the feature set becomes more refined and 'complete' (such as these things are ever complete!). I think they are wise to work more in the background producing a solid base for the future than they are publicising / training for it too widely while it is still a work-in-progress. I look forward to the future wonders of scene nodes but I think their real time to shine hasn't quite arrived yet...

saw this really late,

 

super impressed with the tutorials on that channel. 

 

finally, we're seeing some sophisticated implementations being done with scene nodes. excited for more from that guy
