5. Getting Started

• The generator is implemented as a Node Group inside the Shader Editor.

• Add the Node Group to your material and connect it to the Material Output. Add a Texture Coordinates and a Mapping nodes, connect object output (from texture coordinates) to vector input (mapping), then connect vector output (mapping) to vector input (AprogenT Wood 3.1).

• Adjust parameters to customize the wood look.

• Works best for baking seamless textures before heavy rendering.
