Complex

Description

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

This mask represents edge wear on a metal object, with scratches and chips appearing on Convex raised edges, potentially masked out by baked AO dark areas.

Parameters

Inputs

• Curvature: Grayscale Input
  Baked map used for internal effects and masking.
• Ambient Occlusion: Grayscale Input
  Baked map used for internal effects and masking.
• Grunge Input: Grayscale Input
• Mask (optional): Grayscale Input
  Mask slot used for masking the node’s effects.
• World Space Normal: Color Input
• Position: Color Input

Parameters

• Wear Level: 0.0 - 1.0Sets the total amount of wear, gradually reveals.
• Wear Contrast: 0.0 - 1.0Sets the contrast of the final result.
• Edges Smoothness: 0.0 - 16.0Sets smoothness of the falloff from the edges from the Curvature.
• Grunge Amount: 0.0 - 1.0Sets amount of grunge to blend in between edges.
• Grunge Scale: 1 - 16Sets the scale of the Grunge.
• Ambient Occlusion Masking: 0.0 - 1.0Sets amount of effect the AO has on the final effect, dark areas being masked out.
• Curvature Weight: 0.0 - 1.0Sets amount of effect the Convex edges from the Curvature have on the final effect.
• Use Custom Grunge: False/TrueEnables a custom Grunge map input slot.
• Use Triplanar: False/TrueEnable Tri Planar projection to hide seams.
