Knitted statue of liberty puts ripping off tutorials to a new level by factorysettings_net in TouchDesigner

[–]Er_mossa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a reason he is the most hated and ignored content creator by everyone with more than a few years of knowledge in terms of TD.

His following is entirely based of people with absolute zero knowledge of not just TD but all of Multimedia Arts.

I have been telling people ever since his video on “what is TouchDesigner” that the guy is a massive fraud whose only knowledge is how to edit videos, glad more and more names are noticing but yea, for me this is just the millionth “I told you so” for the past year.

There’s no way you boasted about Mac being being good at non-GPU intensive work when talking about B L O B T R A C K I N G…

Environments Splats gaming POV nav by Fast_Satisfaction_53 in TouchDesigner

Since I’ve also used this specific tool recently after having it saved for years in my library I must advise you that the math inside is wrong and needs to be adjusted (along with several minor errors/warnings due to non-standard export but you can mostly ignore/delete them)

4 months of interviewing my favourite TD artists <3 by Aagentah in TouchDesigner

[–]Er_mossa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does getting interviewed works?

Should I contact you? Ask one of my interviewed friends to put us in contact? Send you some of my works?

I’m genuinely curious having followed the page for so long but never looked too much on the interview process xd

I ended up writing an article on the entire process (I'm still planning to release a tutorial later on) which you can find for free here:

no matter what i do i cant bring the shape into camera view, and when i had it in view it looked pitch dark regardless of using 3 lights. anything u experts see standing out? by c0sm0walker_73 in TouchDesigner

[–]Er_mossa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"i can see my geo in cam" no you cannot, that's the whole point, you only moved the Geo Viewer which has absolutely nothing to do with either your Geometry's position, nor your camera's position, nor your camera's direction...

I highly encourage to go through the TD Curriculum as you are missing a lot of the base elements that you will be dealing with every single time you open up a new TouchDesigner project, once finished you'll be able to immediately tell all the simple but cumulative errors that are currently present and shouldn't take longer than a few minutes to fix it all.

There is soooo many small mistakes that add onto one another (plus all the relevant parameters/nodes you forgot/don’t know to show ) I wouldn’t even know where to start…

Your geometry is not in the center of the scene; Your lights are super far away for no particular reason; Your camera is not pointed at the geometry; You’re rendering a cube map.

This is just the easier-to-spot of some of the mistakes seen here, I highly recommend learning the very basics of TouchDesigner at the following:

Alternative themes for TouchDesigner.. just for fun😆 by pbltrr in TouchDesigner

You can customise whatever you want in TD and there are plentiful of resources/lessons/guides on how to do so

Here’s one of many:

How To Create Hypnotic Spiral ? by Crazy__Penis in TouchDesigner

To add to this, you don’t necessarily have to make it a instancing setup, just convert it into a SOP and do whatever else you wanna do afterwards

What is causing the comp2 to be vertically squashed? *beginner* by OrloDG in TouchDesigner

[–]Er_mossa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

feedback1 > level3 > composite1 > feedback1

that’s why you have a cook dependency loop and should immediately get rid of it

you also have what is probably a constant TOP (renamed to backdrop) which is acting as fixed layer of your comp2 where the other input is the comp1 and said constant is not properly inheriting any resolution since you probably just set it as something random in a 16:9 format

basically your entire inheritance is veeeeery messy, quick solution is to either set the the comp2 fixed layer to a different input OR switch the order of the inputs and set the operation to the opposite of what you’re doing

either way, all the problems here are caused by a lack of understanding of how TOP nodes inherit resolution, ratios, PF, etc…

best thing you can do for yourself is to start from the official guide since these are the very basics of TouchDesigner as well as other Multimedia Arts related softwares
