WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.680 Our particles are using 00:00:01.680 --> 00:00:04.305 the same texture that we have for the ground floor. 00:00:04.305 --> 00:00:05.580 That means it's going to be using 00:00:05.580 --> 00:00:06.600 the dirt texture and 00:00:06.600 --> 00:00:07.980 that's not going to look good at all. 00:00:07.980 --> 00:00:09.690 It's going to look like dead grass. 00:00:09.690 --> 00:00:11.460 So let's create a new material 00:00:11.460 --> 00:00:13.515 so the grass actually is green. 00:00:13.515 --> 00:00:15.690 We're gonna do this by coming over to the top 00:00:15.690 --> 00:00:17.580 right and splitting this view and 00:00:17.580 --> 00:00:20.010 switching it over to the shader editor 00:00:20.010 --> 00:00:21.840 over in the material tab, 00:00:21.840 --> 00:00:23.040 we're going to hit that plus 00:00:23.040 --> 00:00:24.765 sign to create a new material. 00:00:24.765 --> 00:00:26.250 Then click on New. 00:00:26.250 --> 00:00:28.695 And remember, we're going to need to name our materials. 00:00:28.695 --> 00:00:31.060 So we're going to call this one grass. 00:00:31.060 --> 00:00:32.780 I'm going to press N to close up 00:00:32.780 --> 00:00:34.805 that panel because we don't really need it. 00:00:34.805 --> 00:00:38.030 So the first node that I'm going to add is a hair info. 00:00:38.030 --> 00:00:39.500 Note, if we press Shift a, 00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:42.410 we can go underneath input and then add in the hair info. 00:00:42.410 --> 00:00:46.445 Node B is intercept option is the one that we want. 00:00:46.445 --> 00:00:48.560 This, this allows us to set where 00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:50.990 the color is on the bottom and the top. 00:00:50.990 --> 00:00:52.850 We can do this with a color ramp. 00:00:52.850 --> 00:00:54.365 So press Shift a and add in 00:00:54.365 --> 00:00:57.335 a converter colorRamp and place it here. 00:00:57.335 --> 00:01:00.455 We'll take the intercept and plug it into the factor 00:01:00.455 --> 00:01:01.610 than the color into 00:01:01.610 --> 00:01:04.355 the base color of the principled shader. 00:01:04.355 --> 00:01:07.340 To see what we're doing, we can open up the preview. 00:01:07.340 --> 00:01:09.620 And instead of using the circle, 00:01:09.620 --> 00:01:12.785 we're going to use the strands right here. 00:01:12.785 --> 00:01:14.795 As you can see, this is actually working. 00:01:14.795 --> 00:01:15.860 It starts out dark on 00:01:15.860 --> 00:01:18.185 the bottom and then it becomes white. 00:01:18.185 --> 00:01:20.090 So now what we're gonna do is hit that 00:01:20.090 --> 00:01:22.310 plus sign to add in a new handle. 00:01:22.310 --> 00:01:25.355 And this handle is going to be a nicer green color. 00:01:25.355 --> 00:01:28.610 So bring it over to a green and drag it down. 00:01:28.610 --> 00:01:31.040 Then we're going to hit that plus sign one more time. 00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:32.960 And this time we're going to bring it over here. 00:01:32.960 --> 00:01:36.515 And I'm going to switch this one over to a lighter green. 00:01:36.515 --> 00:01:38.480 And I think I might drag this one actually to 00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.795 a darker green, something like that. 00:01:41.795 --> 00:01:43.820 And drag it this way. 00:01:43.820 --> 00:01:45.980 I'm also leaving a little bit of white at 00:01:45.980 --> 00:01:47.240 the very top because that is 00:01:47.240 --> 00:01:48.575 what actual grass looks like. 00:01:48.575 --> 00:01:49.760 There's a little bit of white at 00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:51.800 the very top of the grass. 00:01:51.800 --> 00:01:53.630 The next thing that we're going to add is 00:01:53.630 --> 00:01:55.430 a little bit of translucency. 00:01:55.430 --> 00:01:57.905 This will allow light to pass through the grass. 00:01:57.905 --> 00:02:00.395 Because if you take a look at grants one more time, 00:02:00.395 --> 00:02:01.880 you can see there is a little bit 00:02:01.880 --> 00:02:03.545 of light that can go through it. 00:02:03.545 --> 00:02:05.945 To add this in, we're going to press Shift a and add an, 00:02:05.945 --> 00:02:08.780 a shader and then a mix shader and place it here. 00:02:08.780 --> 00:02:10.580 We're then going to press Shift a and add 00:02:10.580 --> 00:02:12.920 in a translucent shader. 00:02:12.920 --> 00:02:16.415 We're gonna take the BSD f and plug it into the shader. 00:02:16.415 --> 00:02:18.305 And then you can see here in the preview 00:02:18.305 --> 00:02:20.210 that light is actually passing through it. 00:02:20.210 --> 00:02:21.860 Now, you can control 00:02:21.860 --> 00:02:24.755 how much light is by setting the factor value. 00:02:24.755 --> 00:02:29.045 We're going to set this a little bit lower, 2.25 n Enter. 00:02:29.045 --> 00:02:30.545 And then for the color, 00:02:30.545 --> 00:02:33.750 we're going to drag it down just slightly. 00:02:33.790 --> 00:02:35.630 And there we go. 00:02:35.630 --> 00:02:37.820 That is our result. 00:02:37.820 --> 00:02:40.040 To actually see this in action, 00:02:40.040 --> 00:02:42.080 we're going to drag this window out a little 00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.440 bit and then press Z and go into rendered view. 00:02:46.930 --> 00:02:49.370 At the moment you won't see anything. 00:02:49.370 --> 00:02:51.440 And that's because we need to actually assign 00:02:51.440 --> 00:02:53.750 those particles do have that material. 00:02:53.750 --> 00:02:55.130 And to do that, we can go over 00:02:55.130 --> 00:02:56.990 to the particle system tab, 00:02:56.990 --> 00:02:59.840 scroll down until we see the render panel. 00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:00.620 You can see them. 00:03:00.620 --> 00:03:02.540 It's current material is set to dirt and 00:03:02.540 --> 00:03:04.820 we need to set it over two graphs. 00:03:04.820 --> 00:03:06.350 So switch it over to grass. 00:03:06.350 --> 00:03:08.705 And then there is the effect that we have. 00:03:08.705 --> 00:03:11.510 I'm going to press Control B and box selected 00:03:11.510 --> 00:03:13.310 just a small portion of the grass and then 00:03:13.310 --> 00:03:15.905 zoom in on it to see what it looks like. 00:03:15.905 --> 00:03:17.750 We also have a problem over 00:03:17.750 --> 00:03:19.430 here about some of the particles 00:03:19.430 --> 00:03:22.550 are actually going through the ground right here. 00:03:22.550 --> 00:03:24.470 And the reason that's happened is because 00:03:24.470 --> 00:03:26.675 we extended the walkway. 00:03:26.675 --> 00:03:28.490 So let's go ahead and fix that by going into 00:03:28.490 --> 00:03:31.400 edit mode and just selecting that part. 00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:33.140 So I'll just click on those vertices. 00:03:33.140 --> 00:03:36.395 I'll press C for circle select and draw a box around. 00:03:36.395 --> 00:03:39.575 All of those will go along the back here, 00:03:39.575 --> 00:03:42.350 then press X and just delete them. 00:03:42.350 --> 00:03:43.955 Now if we go out of edit mode, 00:03:43.955 --> 00:03:46.160 that should fix the issue. 00:03:46.160 --> 00:03:47.450 There we go. 00:03:47.450 --> 00:03:49.670 So now if we go back into camera view Z 00:03:49.670 --> 00:03:51.080 and go into rendered view, 00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:52.850 there are no particles peeking 00:03:52.850 --> 00:03:55.280 through and that looks pretty good. 00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:57.410 Let's take a look at the entire thing 00:03:57.410 --> 00:03:58.520 by closing this window, 00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:00.635 by clicking in the top right, closing that. 00:04:00.635 --> 00:04:02.450 And then press Control B and draw 00:04:02.450 --> 00:04:04.835 box outside the camera view. 00:04:04.835 --> 00:04:06.950 And there we go, Look at that. 00:04:06.950 --> 00:04:08.510 We now have grass in our scene 00:04:08.510 --> 00:04:10.610 in and is looking pretty good. 00:04:10.610 --> 00:04:12.680 The reason you can't really see a lot of 00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:15.035 the strands is because of the de-noising. 00:04:15.035 --> 00:04:16.700 Once we do a final render is 00:04:16.700 --> 00:04:18.470 going to look a lot better because we're going 00:04:18.470 --> 00:04:20.180 to add more samples and 00:04:20.180 --> 00:04:21.590 the shadows and everything and 00:04:21.590 --> 00:04:23.090 some other render settings. 00:04:23.090 --> 00:04:25.475 We will cover all that in a later video. 00:04:25.475 --> 00:04:28.370 For now though, we've completed this section. 00:04:28.370 --> 00:04:31.310 The next section after this is the final section 00:04:31.310 --> 00:04:32.690 where we're actually going to be jumping 00:04:32.690 --> 00:04:34.010 into the Render Settings, 00:04:34.010 --> 00:04:35.210 learning how to render in 00:04:35.210 --> 00:04:38.490 cycles and making it look really good.
