Random controller generates random values in range of [min,max]. for example in range of 1 to 20 you can expect numbers line 2.45123 and 10. Now what if you want to pick a value which you defined previously in a random manner. let’s say you have a list of scalar values like {2,5,10,20} and only [...]
Randomizing Surface division in Para 3d 3.0
See Para 3d in Action! Again randomizing surface division and use of mix controller to implement two magnets. this time with para 3d V 3.0
PARA 3d Interpolate, Graph, Random Controller
his tutorial covers the Interpolate, Graph and Random Controllers in Para 2.8 Tutorial by Kory Bieg, OTA+
Randomizing thickness in surface paneling
In this video you learn how to use random controller within surface controller to change the thickness of panels. Also you learn how to control the random values while using random controller on multiple properties/controllers. For more information on random controller see also : Random pattern and noise effect in animation
Bird’s nest Stadium
This video explains use of PARA 3d to create a fully parametric concept model of bird’s nest stadium. You can control all aspects of geometry and create multiple variations in less than one second! PART I Introduction PART II Creating the base object in 3ds MAX PART III Generating pattern using Para 3d
Randomizing surface divisions
This is an advanced tutorial in using PARA 3d to create noise effect in the divisions made by a surface controller. Before practice this tutorial you need to check the previous video to find out how to make the adaptive component which you can see at the beginning of this video. click here to go [...]
Creating noise effect in magnetic field.
By adding random controller in offset channel of the Magnet controller you can create noise effect in magnetic field.
Randomized pattern and noise effect in animation
Random controller can generate both Fresh and Repetitive random values. Watch this video to find out how to use the random controller to create a random pattern and how to generates (or avoid generating) random values during animation using key frame maker utility.
Finding closest object in array to a given point.
To find the closest item of an array to the given point P, we should sort the list of points based on the distance from -P-. in this sorted list the first item is always closest point. see the video to find out how to setup controller in 3ds MAX to do so.
Basics of Link controller
This is a new edition of old video tutorial (Parametric Brick wall) which uses link and math controllers to create a random pattern of stone blocks.
