any last minute requests for procedurals ?

a retroreflective brdf can do that...
i don't think i have the time to add this tomorrow in the final version as that would require more coding than just adding a 3d procedural node,
so maybe i'll do that in the next release, or i might add a retro-reflective brdf.

I don't know if this falls into the category of procedurals, but a color adjustment thing (HSV or similar) would be very nice.

Sounds great! Having a few different noises to layer up will add some nice richness.radiance wrote:i've only got a few hours tomorrow so i suggest:
- fbm noise node
- 3d bricks texture node
- invert texture node
- ridged multifractal noise node
that should be it.

sound very good here too!
does 3d means the brick texture will be independent of the imported mapping?
it would be great to have the option to ignore the mapping on all the materials and redo it all in a common scale because sometimes you miss a few objects and then the scale is always different. on the objects you forgot. this way the wood for instance is guaranteed to have a real(ish) scale in all the scene.
EDIT:
as for an example, think of a curtain or any mesh that you can see through when you look at it perpendicular but not at an angle, its something like an extruded grid.

I haven't played with procedural stuff yet. Is a checkerboard procedural implemented? if not that would be great to make in Octane.radiance wrote:i've only got a few hours tomorrow so i suggest:
