NGVolumes<\/strong> (Node Graph Volumes) is a preset window for working with volumetric (3D) materials and textures<\/strong>. Graphs in the This category is ideal for creating materials that simulate a solid physical mass:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Standard textures (2D) wrap around the model like paper and depend on the quality of the UV mapping. If the UV map has seams, the texture will break.
In contrast, Volumes (Volumetric textures)<\/strong> exist in 3D space. The object is essentially “carved” out of this solid mathematical block, which guarantees the absolute absence of seams on any model.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow it works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
NGVolumes<\/code> window most often use nodes from the Pattern3D<\/code> category (e.g., Voronoi3D<\/code>, SoftNoise3D<\/code>, HardNoise3D<\/code>) instead of standard 2D patterns. To determine coordinates, they rely on inPosition<\/code> (global or local object coordinates) rather than inUV<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nUsage Examples<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
