Complex

Description

This is a full-material effect that works on multiple channels at once. It adds a random crack pattern, with control over spread and depth.

Make sure to properly understand the Link Creation Modes when working with full materials.

Parameters

Inputs

• Curvature: Grayscale Input
  Baked or generated map used for internal effects and masking.
• Height : Grayscale Input
  Baked or generated map used for internal effects and masking.
• Mask : Grayscale Input
  Mask slot used for masking the node’s effects. Can be toggled with the “Mask” parameter.

Parameters

• Channels

  • Toggle material channels on and off in this group, for example when using Specular/Glossiness maps instead of Metallic/Roughness.

• Advanced

  • Normal Format: DirectX, OpenGL
    Switches between different Normalmap formats (inverts the green channel).
  • Mask: False/True
    Toggles the use of the Mask map on or off.

• Effect

  • Cracks Propagation: 0.0 - 1.0How far the cracks should spread. This is the main control for this effect.
  • Cracks Depth: 0.0 - 1.0Depth of the crack effect. This mostly affects height and slightly affects visula thickness.

• Blending

  • Controls how strongly the effect blends into each resulting channel.
