Nice Procedural Noise list of the more commonly used noises FF and 3D

While searching in google I found this nice, good and interesting list of the more commonly used noises in production of 3D, and includes also some of the noise examples that can be made inside FF, all with thubnails and categories.

is going to show off some of the more commonly used noises in production, and then I'll give you a bit of background on each noise, and software you can use to generate that noise type. The main apps I'll be talking about will be the 3dsmax's built in procedurals, the BerconMaps for 3dsmax, Darksim's Darktree and Filterforge for photoshop

Procedural Noise By Neil Blevins

xirja,

Based on what I've seen in your Illusion Fields thread, you've made some incredible progress with that! You know I've been kicking at the same stump (it's the main reason I haven't submitted any original filters!) hoping to come up with a terrain/terraform filter distinct from the Landform branches I tinkered with at the start. (Mainly because I could learn from it in edit mode.)

The main thing I'm looking for is a variable-scale, variable height noise; the closest I've come has been using blocks/chaffs/pyramid noise, mapping to roughness or contrast, then running that through a noise distortion (also with mapped roughness/contrast). I'm currently exploring mapped refraction. A few other ideas are tickling at the edges of my consciousness, but for now, I'm tied down doing a lot of trial and error.

Anyway, your experiments are very inspiring, xirja!

Trial and error and exploring, that what it's all about. Despite the fact that I'm keeping some of the tricks close to my chest for economic reasons, another really good reason is that old 'give a man a fish' parable. More specifically, one cannot teach another to fish, it's only by fishing, that one learns to fish. 💒 ...or something like that...😉 Plus decoding Musgrave et al and their shader language and applying it to FF is not an easy task too.

xirja, if you've posted work on noise filters, I'm curious to read it if you'll link to it.
