Basic Generators

Constant

Outputs a constant value

Value = 1.0f

Constant output

White

White noise generator

Seed Offset = 0

This value is added to the seed before generation
Doesn't affect the seed passed to child nodes
Useful if you have multiple nodes of the same type and want them to give different outputs

Output Min = -1.0f

Minimum bound of output range

Output Max = 1.0f

Maximum bound of output range

Checkerboard

Outputs a checkerboard pattern
Each checkerboard cell is "Feature Scale" sized in each dimension

Feature Scale = 100.0f

Effectively 1.0 / frequency

Output Min = -1.0f

Minimum bound of output range

Output Max = 1.0f

Maximum bound of output range

Sine Wave

Outputs sine wave

Feature Scale = 100.0f

Effectively 1.0 / frequency

Output Min = -1.0f

Minimum bound of output range

Output Max = 1.0f

Maximum bound of output range

Gradient

Takes the input position and does the following per dimension
(input + offset) * multiplier
The output is the sum of all results

Offset = 0.0f - Hybrid Lookup

Read node description

Offset = 0.0f - Hybrid Lookup

Read node description

Offset = 0.0f - Hybrid Lookup

Read node description

Offset = 0.0f - Hybrid Lookup

Read node description

X Multiplier = 0.0f

Read node description

Y Multiplier = 0.0f

Read node description

Z Multiplier = 0.0f

Read node description

W Multiplier = 0.0f

Read node description

Distance To Point

Outputs distance between point and input position
Distance is calculated in current domain space,
ie affected by Domain Modifiers/Warping

Point = 0.0f - Hybrid Lookup

Point in current domain space

Point = 0.0f - Hybrid Lookup

Point in current domain space

Point = 0.0f - Hybrid Lookup

Point in current domain space

Point = 0.0f - Hybrid Lookup

Point in current domain space

Minkowski P = 1.5f - Hybrid Lookup

Only affects Minkowski distance function
1 = Manhattan
2 = Euclidean

Distance Function = Euclidean - Enum

  • Euclidean (Default)
  • Euclidean Squared
  • Manhattan
  • Hybrid
  • Max Axis
  • Minkowski
