Fiber Glass Edge Wear

In: Mesh Based Generators*/Mask Generators*

Intermediate

Description

Generates a black and white mask based on baked maps and user settings. Similar to Smart Masks in Painter.

Represents a mask specifically intended for a fibreglass-type of wear, could perhaps be used for cloth. Due to the very tiled, repetitive nature of the fibres, Triplanar blending can optionally be enabled.

Parameters

Inputs

• Curvature: Grayscale Input
  Baked map used for edge highlighting. Required!
• Ambient Occlusion: Grayscale Input
  Baked map used for masking occluded areas. Not required, but definitely recommended.
• Grunge Input: Grayscale Input
  Optional custom slot to override fiber pattern.
• Mask (optional): Grayscale Input
  Mask slot used for masking the node’s effects.
• World Space Normal: Color Input
  Only used for Triplanar.
• Position: Color Input
  Only used for Triplanar.

Parameters

• Wear Level: 0.0 - 1.0Like a Histogram Scan, progressively reveals the wear.
• Wear Contrast: 0.0 - 1.0Sets total effect contrast.
• Edges Smoothness: 0.0 - 16.0Sets bleed out/blurring from highlighted edges.
• Grunge Amount: 0.0 - 1.0Sets how much of the fibre effect to blend in between the edges. Tweak this together with Wear Level to get maximum control.
• Ambient Occlusion Masking: 0.0 - 1.0Sets amount of influence the AO has on hiding the effect.
• Curvature Weight: 0.0 - 1.0Sets amount of influence Convex edges from the Curvature have.
• Use Custom Grunge: False/TrueOverrides built-in fibres with custom map.
• Use Triplanar: False/TrueEnables Tri Planar to hide seams.
• Triplanar Blending Contrast: 0.0 - 1.0Controls contrast of the Triplanar effect.
