Looks very good, but the normal map (surface height) is overblown.

What would you suggest? Tune down the 'surface height' for all the presets? Or some internal modifications to the height map?

I tried lowering the Surface Height, but it also lowers the contrast between the wood fibers, making the texture less interesting. So it seems that it would require some additional work.

If the final blend component before the height input were removed, the contrast would stay more stable for a wide range of surface heights. However, for very small values you'd still lose that contrast. And, as always, the lighting also affects this contrast.

Yeah, I've had my doubts about the filter name too, but I was too lazy to come up with something different. Any suggestions?

Interesting......I always considered panels made from pressed/glued wood chips to be chipboard.....with the chips having different tones and random placement.....

Don't like "Fiberboard", eh??? Wink Big grin

I'm thinking about it. "Chipboard" doesn't quite cut it, so there'll be a name change eventually. Smile

What about 'Wooden Fiberboard'?

Alright, the update is in and the normal map/relief contrast 'issue' should be resolved.
