BUMP!!!
I am not a coder, and I am giving up. Really.
Guys, I need a shader similar to the brick shader. Only for instances.
Variant A:
I provide the shader a number of textures. Each instance (-ID) gets a random texture from the pool.
Variant B:
I provide only one texture to the shader. Each instance gets a slightly gamma- and color shift RANDOMLY by instance-ID.
A shaded parameter should be the gamma shift range and the color shift range.
Could this be soooooooooooo difficult?
I even don't find in ANY ISL documentary how to implement a texture variable into ISL. And if I need vec3 for what I want or not.
Please help me and us for building an easy-to-use Instance Color Variation Shader!!!
Thank you in advance!

Ono did all the code for me for the brick so I'm afraid I can't help
As an archvizer I think this would prove very useful, I'd particularly love to see galinette's ideas about glass panels implemented.

Code: Select all
def eval(vec3 pos) vec3 :
let
r = real(objectId())
base_col = vec3(0.6, 0.4, 0.4)
# Get UV coords
uv = getTexCoords(0)
# Pick a random texture index
NUM_TEXTURES = 3
# tex_index = floorToInt(gridNoise(vec2(x(uv) + 100000.0, y(uv) + 1000000.0)) * real(NUM_TEXTURES))
tex_index = floorToInt(noise(vec2(x(uv), y(uv))) * real(NUM_TEXTURES))
random_scale = 2
in
sample2DTextureVec3(tex_index, uv) * random_scale
#base_col + vec3(
#fract(r * 45.345),
#fract(r * 4.57),
#fract(r * 908.3)
#) * random_scale
Really NO IDEA what is going on here.
Regarding the tex_index I can't simply output a random value of the read NUM_TEXTURE... no chance. Tried everything.
Plus, the "sample2DTextureVec3()" doesn't accept FRACT-modifiers as above at the very end... I am so helpless...

Ok, for variant A (random texture per instance) the code looks like this:
NUM_TEXTURES needs to be set to the number of textures in the shader.

It occurs to me that a numShaderTextures() ISL function would be handy, will add that in. Won't be available for a while tho.

Wow Ono, thank you very much!!
Do you think it would be possible to Access the Shader Input fields 1:1 in the plugin exporters? That would save a lot of time.
Cheers, zeiti

what do you mean by the shader input fields?

Works like a charm, Ono!
Got to find out how to setup the Code for c4d...

Hey Ono,
would a combination work?
I managed to link color variation with your multiple texture setup, but I fail at the gamma_shift...

Got it!
First three images ONLY ONE color texture. There are 8 different trees with 8 different alpha leaf blend materials; all accessing the main color changer material.
So this way I got to change/apply/setup the color variation shader ONE TIME, but get 8 different alpha leaf materials out of it.
Last picture using ONLY TWO textures, but color and gamma variation applied.
- 1 texture:
gamma variation + color variation
- 1 texture:
stronger gamma variation + color variation
- closeup
Code: Select all
def eval(vec3 pos) vec3 :
let
NUM_TEXTURES = 2
tex_index = floorToInt(gridNoise(real(objectId())) * NUM_TEXTURES)
c = sample2DTextureVec3(tex_index, getTexCoords(0))
id = real(objectId())
gamma_var = paramGammaRandomAmount()
shift_gamma = max(0.0, (1 - gamma_var) + gridNoise(id) * gamma_var * 2.0)
colour_var = paramColorVariationAmount()
colour_shift = (vec3(-0.5) + vec3(gridNoise(id), gridNoise(id + 34534), gridNoise(id + 9876465))) * (colour_var * 2.0)
in
vec3(pow(c.x, shift_gamma), pow(c.y, shift_gamma), pow(c.z, shift_gamma)) + colour_shift
- 2 textures:
gamma variation + color variation

Thank you a lot!
The only knickknack is the fact that setting up the shader is not possible in the C4D exporter.
fused may have to invest work here, so that the C4D Indigo shader window offers the same possibilities as the Indigo standalone GUI shader window. Plus working and exporting things correctly.
BTW: Ono, does that shader "flicker" or sample everything new when rendering an animation?
And if yes, how can we interdict that?
