Day 2 - Instance VS Copy Node

Instance

For this part of the tutorial, I learned more about what can instance do. I tried out with a platonic object first, so I used Utah teapot.

I dived inside the instance node and at the "add" node > points. I added an extra point and put the Y-axis as 3.

According to the tutorial, we'll have to change the point instancing from off > full point instancing in order to let the instancing work.

I've also learned that we create a sphere inside instance change the radius to how many teapots we want it to appear we must change primitive type to polygon to let the instance function works.
Trying out the instance function.

Next, I tried out with the tubes.

However, I don't want all the tubes to be pointed at the same point, so I added a point node inside the instance and "add normal"

I added a pointlight and trying to put every light inside the tube.

I've also learned that from the tutorial, we can actually right click at the instance and "reference copy" it. So I did that and changed the instance object to pointlight.

In the end this is how it will look.
