Nodes

Clamp

Clamp the colors of textures.

Color Arithmetic

Perform an arithmetic operation between two colors/textures.

Color Correction

Apply various color corrections.

Color To Float

Convert a color or texture into a floating-point value.

Compose Color

Set manual or node-based RGB values to create a single color output.

Distance

Returns a different color based on a point's distance from an object(s) specified in a selection list.

Falloff

Produces a gradient texture based on the angular falloff of the surface of the geometry.

Float

Outputs a custom float value that can be used for any purpose.

Float Arithmetic

Perform mathematical operations on float values.

Float To Color

Convert the input scalar texture to a grayscale color.

Hair Sampler

Map color, incandescence, and transparency along the length of a hair strand.

HSV to RGB

Convert a color from an HSV color model to an RGB color model.

Invert

Invert texture colors.

Invert Float

Outputs the inverted result of a float input texture.

Luminance

Wraps a color texture and outputs its luminance.

Mix

Mix two colors or textures.

MultiSubTex

Apply multiple textures to several objects using a single material.

Output Texture

Perform various adjustments to a texture's value.

Parallax

Create the illusion of depth on a surface without additional polygons.

Remap

Remap different types of values.

Remap Float

Remap a value in the 0-1 range to another range.

RGB to HSV

Convert a color from the HSV color model to the RGB color model.

Sampler Info Texture

Create a color image that provides information about the scene.

Set Range

Ramp a texture or a color.

Triplanar

Control luminance calculation.

User Color

Read user-defined attributes or color attributes and convert them to a color value.

User Scalar

Read user-defined object properties from the current material and convert them to a float value.

Separate Color

Separate a color or color texture into its R,G,B, and Alpha channels.
