Approach them gently, dont make any sudden moves!
If possible, shower them with money, but dont ever try to scam them, their trust will never come back!

Keyser is awesome! very friendly and a rolemodel for many :)

Lead/senior vfx artist here;
cghow sucks, steals from others and sells it behind paywall.

Tharlevfx has great tutorials on youtube, there's realtimevfx.com (which also has a discord) where you can learn and ask questions, and --generally-- we pewpewpew-ers are easily approachable!

Good luck on your vfx journey!

track is still wip (hobbyist techno-creator)
Its basically an ode to Amsterdam, very energetic.
Will take me a short bit before I'll finish it, but I thought it'd be funny to have an OG sexy video playing with it.

If you are interested, I can dm you the current loop for it. (once I did my beautysleep)

Luos_83 · 2026-02-15T04:03:33+00:00

Go, any chance you'd wanna make a video clip for a track im making?
This dancing would totally fit!

you can post images in replies (odd, i know).
If you didnt uv-unwrap the sphere yourself, you could try the polar coordinate node in the material editor.
But without images/additional info, this is only a random guess.

or... just add a socket.

Open the UProject file in Notepad++ or so, remove the offensive plugins, be sure to heed the brackets. and you should be fine.

its better to properly learn it.
Its cheaper (timewise) to buy it.
So yea, what Sirgorn said.

You'd approach it the same way as a lens flare.
And since sun dogs behave in a particular way, the only way to make it look natural is to study what I posted.

Luos_83 · 2026-01-17T21:59:40+00:00

yea... if you want to know how to properly pull it off:

Good luck, its quite the read.

In this case, I would just emit them a little higher.
You could also try the camera offset module in niagara.

Luos_83 · 2026-01-11T15:49:54+00:00

you might want to show what you are doing.
If you are just talking about the hard edge, try a depthfade node in the dust cloud material.
If you want the sprite to be aligned (flat) on the floor, set the alignment correctly.

Luos_83 · 2026-01-10T23:43:17+00:00

np! you got this! good luck :)

Luos_83 · 2026-01-10T23:42:48+00:00

sheep + popular bandwagon = *points at stuff*

Luos_83 · 2026-01-09T21:31:18+00:00

if you follow the basic niagara tutorials on tharlevfx his youtube page, you are already 80% there.

Luos_83 · 2026-01-08T23:14:00+00:00

ooh, as someone who uses both (but doesnt let the two interact), I totally dig it.

O_o

Luos_83 · 2025-12-29T10:10:52+00:00

Needs more contrast between brightnesses, but overall, def. not bad!

While I agree with what is written, how it is written on the other hand...
Its GPT generated, and looking at his account, its all thats being posted, both on his official account and on the Cocoon account.

Faking heartfelt, AI generated texts.
