Overview: Input nodes act as the primary data sources for your material graph. They fetch information from the 3D model, such as UV coordinates, cavity maps, ambient occlusion, and existing material properties, allowing you to build procedural effects based on the underlying geometry.

CustomNode

Description: A stub or base for creating your own custom node.

Inputs and Settings:

• Radius (Number (Float))
• Sharpness (Number (Float))
• Shift (Number (Float))

Outputs:

• RGBCavity (Color (RGBA))
