All in One
Forget about searching the Internet to find a proper image texture each time
you want to add any tiniest variation.
From now, just make a quick setup using the interactive texture, set
parameters using a couple of sliders, find your favourite pattern and make
your model beautiful.
The possibilities are infinite – all types of wood or even more! In a single node!
Bitmap 2D vs 3D procedural
Finally, you have found the perfect, high-resolution texture for your wooden
model – just quickly UV unwrap, apply the texture – looks nice!
Let's just take a closer look… is it still good from every angle? Not too bad,
but wait… Something seems not right...
No matter how much effort we put into UV unwrapping, there's no chance to make all sides match together perfectly.
Since we 3D model, why should we struggle with 2D textures?
Why not try something more... 3-Dimensional?
Procedural 3D textures eliminate seams and stretching completely – so your wood grain flows naturally, no matter the shape of the model.
Knots
Nature isn’t perfect – and that’s what makes it beautiful.
The Knots feature lets you bring realism to a whole new level
by procedurally generating wood knots directly in the texture.
Using intuitive sliders, you can:
-
Control the number and size of knots
-
Adjust how they blend into the surrounding grain
-
Set randomness to avoid repetition
No images, no stamps – just pure parametric beauty, unique every time.
Panelling
Flat wood surfaces often need an extra touch of realism.
With Panelling,
you can divide any wooden surface into individual planks or boards – with full
control over size and offset.
Whether you're building a floor, a fence or a cabin wall – panel layout becomes part of the texture itself, not a separate model. One node. Endless configurations.
