Chaos Corona for 3ds Max > [Max] Daily Builds

New UVW Randomizer playground!

(1/16) > >>

GeorgeK:

From the Corona Renderer 6 Daily Builds Changelog:

Added (randomized) tiling support to UvwRandomizer map:
- You can specify how many tiles to make in each (U-V) direction
- Optionally each tile can have different randomization applied
- https://corona-renderer.com/comparer/hCPRU4
- https://corona-renderer.com/comparer/7wCz5x
- https://corona-renderer.com/comparer/CDkWvE

How it works:



To enable tile randomization, navigate to your UVWRandomizer texmap, and enable Randomize each tile. You can then control the number of tiles and tile blending accordingly.



Setting UV offset ranges above 1.0 and W- Rotation to different ranges (f.e. 0-360) will assist with the randomization of the texture.

Note: Either an object with correct UVW mapping is required for this to work (unwrapping or UVW map modifier), or you can use the UVW Randomizer in combination with the Corona Triplanar map to both randomize the texture and prevent seams and stretching, without the need for UVWs.

Feel free to post your results!

Awesome work ;)

Does this now work with Corona Displacement? I believe there's currently a bug between the two resulting in artefacts.

You mean UVW Randomizer + Triplanar as displacement?
UVW Randomizer should work fine with displacement (producing expected results).
Triplanar is always applied AFTER displacement, and this is by design, however sometimes not expected by the users. This was discussed in the past, and the final comment is that this is a technical limitation of Triplanar, which we will not be touching.

People posted some pretty impressive examples from Fstorm when they requested this feature in Corona. I would be very disappointed if they won't show equally as impressive works now done in Corona :]

Hint: in Corona you are not limited to bitmaps. You can use this with procedurals as well. :]
