post your greeble renders!

[Ferry P]

Hi there...I got this idea by renszu's similair thread on cgchat...CLICK HERE TO WATCH (http://www.cgchat.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17318)

It goes like mad over there..I thought let's try it here!

Greeble is a plugin which you can download at http://www.maxplugins.de

Just search for it at the top right...there will be only one result.
It quite fun to use it...

So c'mon...try and make a cool scene with this easy to handle plugin!

Here is my submission...

[Ferry P]

and on with another material....

[Psistorm]

yeah, greeble is the ultimate max plugin :D

for my greeble work, go here:
http://earth.prohosting.com/thefnord/artdoc/cuiser/info.htm

images are rather, erm, huge, so I wont attach em here for the sake of quality :)

[novoAlias]

my submission :)
am i right in thinking urs is an inverted tube of some sort to begin with ef?

[MattyG]

how do I use plugins?
I got the grass-o-matic plugin and I put it in te folder and then I open max and dunno how to use it.If someone tells me how I will post a render.

There's a .txt file in the zip file....you should read that!


BTW blackwolf....it's actually a little loft...with behind the corner a target spot with a high value shining in the loft...then a camera with extreme perspective...a nice material and it's done

[MattyG]

I did read it I did everything it says and its still not on the list.When it says check show buttons then configure buttons I go up and down the list and its not there but shag hair and other things are.
EDIT-Winzip was lame and didnt extract the dlm so it wasnt there lol

[legato]

dude!!! what happen to...:D

[Jyncus]

I know I've seen that scene somewhere EF..
Err, did you make the whole scene yourself? I know I remember seeing something just like it in an Afterburn 3.0 review/article - err, without greeble of course.

Hehe, if you did do the whole scene from scratch..would you mind sharing some points on how it's built/setup?
The effect looks wicked! :)

[Ferry P]

i created the scene myself from scratch.
I made a loft with a lot of segments...added a greeble modifier with a high density over it which is only visible for renders (so max won't crash)...put a target spot with a high value on the end of the loft shining into it and then place a camera with an extreme perspective...give the loft a cool material and you're set!

[novoAlias]

yea for that planet thing i had to delete most of the scene so it wouldnt crash wen rendering, greeble is intensive, one of the images in the gallery seems to use ut? check in 3dtotal scifi gallery ull prob find it

[Ferry P]

you mean this one?
Done by Marcelo Leal

BTW...how does one get such an cool lighting effect as in this pic?

[Ferry P]

c'mon guys...
try it out....it's much fun...

[MattyG]

Just a meh bullet but oh well

[renascent]

i used some greeble on this animation for the 3d structure thats being "sprayed"

http://www.renascent.nl/m20.htm

:)

[Emperor]

A quick job..LMAO..this is a fun ( and polygon costly) plug he he :D

[slavke]

it is pretty good plug that can be used to make like a city view from above. New York, Chicago or other big cities for example.

[Mavo]

Greebeling, greebelang

heh thats the idea behind mi one :)

[legato]

dreeblin with greeblin..

[novoAlias]

hmm methinks you could make a real nice street scene with a greeble thing to start with :), you just keep adding detail, nice stuff :D

[legato]

then u just have to hope max dont commit suicide.. lol

[Drew Carey]

HEy guys, that's cool!
Is there a version of Greeble for Max 5 and higher? Last time I checked it was only for Version 4 :( .
I'd really like to use this...

Edit: Nevermind....silly me :D I just found it...

[Honki]

OK, so I ripped the idea off of Marcelo Leal.
I dont think he'll mind.

Just an experiment anyway.
It's a useful plugin.... I like.

[DeadlyFreeze]

thread just isnt complete without a tea pot greeb :D

[novoAlias]

well if you didnt know wat it was for b4...

[neo_mosher_zion]

i gotta joing on this... i was hoping to make my viper or skyline all greebled but.......... my comptuer crashed. geuss it didnt like haveing to deal with like 3,000,000 ratraced polys... lol im a dum ass for tryin that. anywhoooooo here ya go. i think it is pretty easy to guess what they are!

[Honki]

Oh no.......
Not another TEAPOT! :grr:

[Honki]

A meshsmoothed greeble!

[novoAlias]

[geoMan]

Ciphor in da GREEBLE:xyz:

[Ferry P]

hey...that looks cool!
BTW...have you come any further with your ciphor?

[cbaristo]

a lot of stuff here remembers me to the old clasic game...
blockout

[neo_mosher_zion]

heres a very simple looking scene, its s sphere but on a different angle then you guys have been showin

[novoAlias]

ringwave

[geoMan]

i have done the body.....but, i have to define musculaiture and bones stuff in the hands, arms and the feet....have to redo the hands and the arms.....lots of stuff.....will complete it....its my favourite project:D :xyz:

[Honki]

That ringwave looks sick Blackwolf.

[Stylez]

just thought i'd try out Greeble :)
tried to get the look Marcelo Leal had. I think its kinda close, what do u think?

[Stylez]

this threads lookin good, keep the greebles coming

[Honki]

Cool Stylez.
Pretty close i'd say.
Are those boxes actually lighting the scene???
or do you have some omnis around the place?

[Stylez]

Honki: It's actually a little of both, there's omnis and the lights glow wich makes the whole scene brighter

[Honki]

Tessellated Greebles

[geoMan]

nice idea honki....

btw....shud i try marcelo leal's picture..i think i can achieve that material effect!

[Stylez]

I say go for it, it's a cool looking scene

[geoMan]

i am doing it!

[Stylez]

c'mon people, lets see some more Greeble Renders! :)

[Kanno]

Turtle......

[Stylez]

hey Kanno that looks pretty cool, kinda like it's a huge turtle with an entire city on its back :cool:

[DeadlyFreeze]

Looks like a BOX turtle to me *yuk yuk yuk*
:p

[Stylez]

that's cause u have no imagination ;)
:D j/k

[[X]treme]

my first shot at greeble....
a "liquid crystal mines" sorta thing... the one that's messed with in PS is kinda temporary, might add more cool looking stuff to overwhelm the viewer into insanity :roll: ... er... i mean to... yeah.... just forget it :D

no SIB logo (http://www.studioinabox.org/images/backgrounds/testb.jpg)
with SIB logo (http://www.studioinabox.org/images/backgrounds/liquidcrystal.jpg)

[[X]treme]

and one more PS'ed version...

code red (http://www.studioinabox.org/images/backgrounds/test3b.jpg)

[Stylez]

the red one looks really cool, the other 2 are kinda blurry so i cant really see much in details, but it looks great

keep the greebles comin!! :D

[geoMan]

here's a quick modified version of marcelo leal! did it in 15 minutes!

[geoMan]

another:D :xyz: :xyz:

[Stylez]

not bad not bad, try makin it a lil lighter and add more details to the background

this one took me about 20 min and another 10 min to render

[geoMan]

di'nt have much time so didnt play with the greeble settings...thats why it lacks detail:D:xyz: :xyz: :xyz: ..

Happy greeblin'

[Corky13]

Ink n paint greeble

[geoMan]

people here are really creative!

[Corky13]

and a Greebled head ^^ this plug-in rulez :D

[Kanno]

Looking at the turtle now, it sort of reminds me of a chia pet...

[Stylez]

Greeble Room! u can get cool looking places when u play around with greeble, here's a quick room

[Kanno]

Toyota Celica..... I think I'm having too much fun with this....

[Honki]

Corky13
Thats not your render bro, don't lie.

Thats a photo of my ex-girlfriend. :D

[[X]treme]

Honki: damn I knew that looked too real to be computer generated... lucky man you are to have had a chance with a girl like that :D :D :D

cool stuff ppl, greeble's really a great, quick, and relatively effecient nifty little tool isn't it

[Stylez]

oh man that looks great!

[neo_mosher_zion]

the cars crazy how did you render that. i tryed to render my viper and my comp died.

[legato]

box :dunno:

[[X]treme]

simplicity at its best :D

[Bullseyepimp]

my turn :)

[Kanno]

I just turned it on so that it only shows up when rendering. I had my computer die a couple times and it took almost 30 minutes to render with advanced lighting and area shadows.

[cbaristo]

patch grid + greeble + noise + greeble + normal

[Kanno]

Now THAT is really cool Cbaristo.:D

[jojay]

nice greebles guys

i gave it a try too

this thread is going gr8!

[Carl Ahearne]

Cool plugin, thanks for the tip guys...

Thought i'd have a go at one of those rooms; first time i ever tried radiosity, and i'm pretty happy with the result...

Here goes...

[defypro]

Very fun plugin. Tried something more complex yesterday and it killed my machine, so all I ended up with was a "greebletest_recover_recover_recover_recover.max" file :roll:

Today it actually worked but had to go really simple:
http://rbhsrock.org/greebelsmall.jpg

more alternatives ( big file ) (http://rbhsrock.org/greebol.jpg)

great work so far everyone! :D

[Goj]

Only lowpoly model of mine, but greeblized..:D

[entangle]

[Stylez]

damn thats cool :D

[neo_mosher_zion]

cool star thingy

[legato]

i like the last 2 renders...really cool stuff..

[flakmonkey]

ok bending the rules of the thread here as im a maya user so all our plugins are boring and suck, inspired i wrote my own greeble plugin for maya and made these a while back.. they even got into the total gallery somehow which amazed me!?! i

[neo_mosher_zion]

i made mine a little better. thought you guys would like to see. the last guy to post yours is cool all the same.

[geoMan]

flakmonkey- i have already seen this one in the 3dtotal gallery!

[Ferry P]

Looks really cool flakmonkey!

I wish I could write my own scripts!

entagle...I love your spaceship!

[Thahackboy]

just some weird thingy:)

[Goj]

When I use greeble it doesn't effect every face. How can I make it effect every one on the model?

[Ferry P]

I dunno..maybe you have a few polys selected while trowing greeble over it?

[Jera]

its green and its greeble!! a sphere with flipped normals and a cam on the inside.

http://img126.exs.cx/img126/4194/greeblespheregreenfr13fd.jpg

nah....he ment mine...he only does 3d for about a year now and didn't know that was called a torusKNOT ;)
(jera...don't hate me now :P)

hello.
funny plugin.

[evil-98]

heres my test http://forums.3dtotal.com/images/icons/icon14.gif

[Gerbilho]

.

[evil-98]

^^ you should up the max size for the GI or caustics. you can see the spots.

[Gerbilho]

I am doing that...the render is taking forever, it's the reflective caustics....It was just a test.

[neo_710]

Greeble is such a cool plugin!:cool:

Here's something that I made with greeble.:D I don't like the afterburn cloud though. It makes the sky look to flat.:roll:
