Moss Weathering

In: Mesh Based Generators/Weathering

Complex

Description

This is a full-material effect that works on multiple channels at once. It generates an overgrown moss effect, with a single control for Propagation.

This effect works best with a baked World Space Position map and an additional Heightmap. While this is not an exact requirement, it lends the effect more credible placement.

Make sure to properly understand the Link Creation Modes when working with full materials.

Parameters

Inputs

  • Position: Color Input
    Baked World Space Position.
  • Height : Grayscale Input
    Additional Heightmap input.
  • Mask : Grayscale Input
    Mask slot used for masking the node's effects. Can be toggled with the "Mask" parameter.
