Dent Noise*
is a procedural 3D surface imperfection generator designed to simulate tiny dents, pitting, and worn irregularities. Internally, it is a dense, inverted 3D spot noise that uses a distance-to-feature approach to carve small cavities instead of raising spots. With a smooth exponential falloff and adaptive contrast control, it produces natural micro-indentations ideal for metals, plastics, and aged surfaces, maintaining stable detail across 3D space.
