Title: Bump channel not working with layer node
Post by: Mac3DX on 2022-12-10, 01:34:59

Hi guys,

Well, very basic set up. I can't make it work. Any particular reason? Something I'm missing?

I'd appreciate any help.

Seriously? that was reported on version 8 and it seems to be even older. What's going on?

Not sure what your material is supposed to look like, but I found that if I connect your layered material to the Displacement channel and change it to 0.05, it seems to work. Not saying the Bump issue isn't a problem, but maybe this is a workaround for you. Maybe you already know this.

The noise space needs to set to UV(2d)

@mb3d Whoa! Is that a new discovery or is it known and just difficult for the Devs to implement? Nobody has mentioned this solution before.

Some sort of workaround but it doesn't make sense to have UVs when using procedural noises. That's the benefits about using procedurals, no need for UVs

Ah, that makes sense.
