Hello,
Can someone please help me with an explanation? I’m trying to follow this tutorial in Blender 4.2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJoi7iSyJQs, but I’m having trouble figuring out the part with “capture attribute” at minute 7 in the new version of Blender. Thank you very much!
Well, it’s hard to tell why he doesn’t that without digging completely in the tutorial … If you’re having trouble understanding what capture attribute is doing maybe look for specific tutorials on that or look in the doc first…
Well. One year ago, there were restrictions about attribute use and weird stuff like dynamic paint.
So, he was using a Capture Attribute node to retrieve and rename attribute.
In 4.2, that should not be necessary to use a Capture Attribute node.
You can directly use dp_weight attribute in material.
Capture Attribute node has a differently look, now.
Because he can capture several attributes in a Geometry Domain.
It was limited to one, at the time of this tutorial. But basically, you just have to make same connections to follow tutorial. But, that step is no more necessary.
