normalMagic 2.0 is here 🥳 #b3d

Available here:

witchcraft!!

@ThatNgonGuy Profoundly excited for this update!

Magic is the right name indeed, amazing job.

@ThatNgonGuy This looks amazing.

Looks incredible. Is it purely an addon or is it a collections of GN modifiers/tools? Or a mix of both?

Thanks! The base version is 100% geometry nodes. The pro version is an add-on (containing the nodes) to streamline using/managing the modifiers. Hope that helps 👍

More info here if you're interested:

Well, time to learn blender I guess

Now that is sick!

Does anything like this exist for maya?

@AndyCuccaro That looks very cool. Can you bake it in to a low-poly mesh to use it later in other game engines?

@AndyCuccaro Yes absolutely! It's just geometry with custom normals so it can be exported directly or baked to textures — or any combination 👍

I wonder, is it possible to bake AO using these floaters? Because I assume you capture normals for the floating geometry, so AO will act as flat surface. ... maybe a feature request to store AO into vertices😉

Everything in the video has 3d geometry so AO should be picked up fine 👍 In the case of baking flattened floaters (which you can easily set up with normalMagic) this is a great idea, I have a free geometry AO tool that should be able to handle this:

I should say this is quite old, I have a new version that's ~10x faster that'll be part of "vertLab" (still WIP)

Those showcases are 🔥

Amazing

yo damn, judging just by the footage, getting this kind of quality for 20$ at an individual license is a rip-off! good stuff, generous pricing!

@Its_Effin_Dan This is so cool! I definitely want to try it out on my current project!

@MaxonVFX

looks interesting

What magic is this? That goes beyond normals, that’s parallax mapping

Sorcery!!! I need it

why its 20 $ ?? with that i can subscribe to pro "meshy ai " and just put image or text turnit to 3d with 4k texture and remesh it with perfect topology .

what?

Can I use with CLaude?

I hope not.

allways paid stuff smh

"always" what are you talking about, there's a bunch of free stuff on my gumroad

👀

Amazing

Cool cool

Nice!!!
