just in general - this error happens if any of the sources you specify as Instancing Ops have a different amount of data points in them. In Bileam’s tutorial you are using TOPs for the instancing so most likely some of the TOPs you are using have a different resolution. You can always check by middle-mouse-clicking onto the operator and checking the resolution and the pixelcount there.
For Instancing to work, all operators uused as a source must have the same size.
Hey sorry to bother you again after a long time. But I came across exactly the same problem, and I tried to adjust every OP to the same resolution, but it still couldn’t work. Could you please help me with that?
Thanks for your reply! I tried to upload my file but new users can’t put links in posts. Could you please give me an e-mail address so that I can send it to you?
looking at the CHOPs “null2” and “scale” it shows that the “null2” CHOP has 16384 samples while the “scale” CHOP has 1638400 samples. Both need to have the same amount.
Also of note is that Instancing accepts all kinds of operator faimlies as input, you can pass TOPs, CHOPs, SOPs or DATs - so no need to convert to CHOPs and save some cycles.
Hi, im having the same error and checked my samples they seem the same.
if anyone could help it would be highly appriciated. also i cant upload the toe.file
Hi there @malcolm@snaut or anyone else willing to help a fella out
I’m having the same problem and not really understanding why.
I’ve followed this tutorial
and when I drag my color null (ramp) into the colorOP instance of my geo node like in the tutorial @ 12:12
“All OPs must have the same number of instances” appears on my geo node and the sim goes black.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! I would attach my toe but it won’t let me. I can send it to you on discord however @ sir_bop if anyone sees this lol
Middle-mouse clicking onto operators will give you information like resolution. As you are using Instancing and getting the error, this points to the different TOPs you are using being of differing resolution.
