Edge Wear

Edge Wear

In: Mesh Based Generators/Mask Generators

Intermediate

Description

Generates a black and white mask based on baked maps and user settings. Similar to Smart Masks in Painter.

This node represents wear on object edges. It has quite a few parameters, but is not the easiest to use: we recommend that you play around and get a feel for things. The node is quite powerful, although no custom override mask can be done.
