      While I don't know the answer to this exactly, I can at least guarantee that one or more TroikaTronix staff members will be in the chat willing to answer questions because I will personally be in the chat and willing to help/answer questions (in case that influences your decision at all).

           This first one will definitely be a work in progress. I am a total newbie at this. And I don't have any of the staff with me in Vienna. But it is my intention to keep the chat open in a second monitor so I can see what your saying and hopefully respond to it.

          Let's see how it goes.

            @mark Hey Mark, I'm trying to get connected to the broadcast if its not too late. I don't see a URL on the other thread you created about this session. If its possible to get connected I'd love to be part of the lesson.

            Best,

            Wyatt

                Thanks to everyone that participated and watched! For those who missed the live stream, the recording is uploaded and ready to be viewed. Keep your eyes on the Isadora Online Learning: The Guru Sessions thread on the TroikaTronix Forum; the link for the next live stream will be posted there once the stream is live.

                Here's our Knowledge Base article on the new Stage Setup window which was covered in the first portion of the video (beginning at 8:11).

                Here's a version of the Isadora 3.0.7 3D Particles Patch that Mark made in the second portion of the video (beginning at 45:36) which I roughly recreated using just Isadora actors instead of his media.

                For my version, you'll need the TroikaTronix GLSL Shaders from the TroikaTronix Plugins Page if you don't have them installed already.

                The most common question about 3D Particles is "Why can't I see anything?" which Mark covered at 48:27

                Here are some visual aides for that:

                • Visual aide showing the camera at (0, 0, 0) in 3D space, the same default coordinates at which 3D Particles will spawn. This is why we need to adjust the z translate to a negative number.


                • If the particle is "inside" the camera (which is at 0, 0, 0 by default) the camera can't see it. You need to move the camera away from the particle or spawn the particle further away from the camera in order for the particle to be visible to the camera.
                • Moving the particle away from the camera: https://recordit.co/7Oh9E38bvj 
                • Moving the camera away from the particle's spawn point: https://recordit.co/MhvLKFQdtg

                  Dear All,

                  Thanks to all who joined the live broadcast yesterday. It was great to feel you all there. (We had about sixty viewers from at six or more countries around the world.)

                  I will give the second "guru session" on Friday March 20th at 6pm. I will spend the entire time guiding showing you how to create a system that generates video imagery, an exercise that I call "The Self-Generating Patch." I am going to target this one for users who might be newer to Isadora, so I'll go a bit slower than I did during the first session. One of the big topics that comes with this is explaining value scaling -- which is especially important for beginning users to understand no matter what they intend to do with Isadora. But I think even old hands will benefit from this, learning tools and techniques to create generative imagery in Isadora.

                  Best Wishes,
                  Mark

                     Hi @Mark, Just to be clear for the rest of us, 6 PM Vienna time?

                    I though the first one was great and I especially liked the sense of community that came from all of us being in the "same place" at the same time. Thanks so much for your commitment.

                    Cheers,

                              Hi 

                              what kind of strategy would you use to make particules bounce or react to other particules, like a still shape or mask... 

                              thanks

                                 There are parameters for this in 3D Model Particles. You can bounce(called 'surface pos') and attract/repulse (called gravity field).
