Math Parser*
allows you to evaluate complex, user-defined mathematical expressions directly within the shader graph, effectively replacing entire trees of “Math” and “Vector Math” nodes with a single, readable formula.

generates a modern Truchet tiling using curved or geometric modules that automatically connect across their borders. By dividing the surface into a grid and randomly rotating specific tile motifs (like Arcs, Triangles, or Lines), it creates visually rich, continuous pathways, mazes, and interlocking lattices. Unlike simple repetition, the random rotation creates a non-repeating “global” structure from simple “local” rules.
is an elegant coloring strategy originally developed for fractal rendering. The concept is beautifully simple yet remarkably expressive: as you iterate a function, each point traces out a path—an “orbit”—through mathematical space. Instead of simply checking whether this orbit escapes to infinity (as in traditional fractal rendering), we place geometric “traps” at strategic locations and measure how close the orbit gets to these shapes.
is a cutting-edge geometric generator, capable of creating breathtakingly complex, quasi-regular structures. Based on cutting-edge research (2024) into resonant Hamiltonian functions and weak chaos theory, it visualizes smooth 2-manifold surfaces constrained by precise symmetry groups.
is an experimental procedural generator based on Iterated Function Systems (IFS), similar to the famous “Kali Set” fractals. Unlike for example standard noise which aims for natural randomness, Magic Pattern creates highly structured, psychedelic, and kaleidoscopic intricacies.
generates a repeating star rosette with alternating filled regions and crisp geometric outlines. Based on the mathematical modeling of symmetric Islamic design (Kaplan et al., 2019), it constructs complex {k, N} star polygons by rotating a point around a circle using alternating angle steps.
is a versatile procedural generator that goes far beyond standard linear or spherical gradients. It offers 19 analytic shapes ranging from basic ramps (Linear, Quadratic, Easing) to complex radial structures (Spiral, Conical, Rings, Star).
is a geometric generator that creates tile-based structures like Grids, Checkboards, Hexagons, and Triangles. Unlike standard texture nodes which can suffer from jagged edges (aliasing) or blurring when viewed at a distance, this node uses Analytic Box Filtering.
modulates scalar values through a sequential pipeline of transforms including contrast, power curves (bias), ridge generation, posterization, and coverage-based masking. It is the essential bridge between a raw noise node and a material input, perfect for sculpting terrain heightfields, defining cloud density maps, or creating stylized artistic patterns.
the perfect companion for any Noise generator. Instead of struggling with a Color Ramp node to visualize data that goes below 0 or above 1, Noise Palette can automatically detect the input range (via Auto Range) and map it perfectly to a color scheme.
operates by evaluating the input noise against a series of ascending thresholds. Think of it as a “Quantizer” or “Band Generator.” If the noise value exceeds Threshold X, it instantly switches to Color X. This creates hard, clean edges between colors, which is perfect for creating non-blended patterns like camouflage, cell-shaded lighting, or geographic height maps.
is a “material-in-a-box.” Instead of just outputting black and white noise, it outputs a full color signal complete with lighting-independent details like dirt and grain. The Compression parameter is key—it squeezes the noise domain to create the characteristic elongated rings of cut timber.
