When placing noise in the bump channel, I very often mix noise types using C4D layer shader but in Corona it doesn't work...

If this could be rectified it would be amazing!!

Cheers

Quoting myself here:

"Bump in the layer shader works fine, even combined in all thinkable combinations, as long as you use it as UV (2D) noise and not in the texture space.
Long standing, weird and complex issue with a couple of confusing dos and don'ts."

It's not comforting in any way, this serious restriction.

So how's it going? What is the Internal ID of this problem? Or is it not registered yet?

Is there any news on this being rectified? It causes problems in nearly every project I work on...

Thanks Beanzvision.

This is a workaround but it doesn't give you anywhere near the amount of control that the Layer Shader does.

Are there plans to make use of the Layer Shader possible?

If only.

Would be nice if this could be sorted out for sure. It's an issue I run into time and time again.

Hey guys!
Had that issue been already addressed in Corona 8?
Wow, it surprises me how essential functionalities like that weren't implemented in the first version. Combining different noise types in order to achieve realism is crucial.
Is there some workaround for that? If not, please put it on the firt place on the development team to do list.

Hey man, I'm using 8 and just checked; it's still not been sorted unfortunately. It's a shame, as I love Corona but this really gets on my nerves!!
