Dirt Texture question

[MagnusL3D]

Can I somehow drive the Radius of a Dirt Texture node input with a Turbulence texture node ?

The Radius input is blue and turbulence texture output is green so they wont connect, but is there no convert ?

I wouldn't have thought so as the radius is a numerical input and the procedural is an image (probably based on UV space). What is it you're trying to do though as there are some good threads about mixing dirt node with textures to get realistic grunge etc.

Maybe im just to much in a Houdini way of thinking, there you can drive anything with anything in general so to me it feels like it should be possible.

Hopefully these might help. Both examples are done within the cinema 4d plugin, but it should translate.
Here's one use Blastframe did with procedural noise:

Here's one I did with textures if that might help too:

Hope they're useful
