Open Project: Voronoi

And it works very fine ... more to come later ...

Here's a though for the use of the voronoi 3D cell scalar. It can be used to change the colour of every voronoi rock, like we have in the fake stones. Every rock a different colour. I haven't tried this yet and I should spend some time on it but I know it will work 

Love that last image Volker. Very nice Voronoi.

I certainly plan on working with voronoi more and will post any results here.

My mind is boggling already. Every voronoi rock a different colour, well why not every voronoi rock a blend of different materials.

And here it is:

101 other uses for this. Think about it.

fake stones shader RIP.

Once again you are heading off in new and interesting directions, having read this thread I couldn't wait to experiment.

I just wanted to keep it simple and see what sort of shapes I could get, after initially just adding a mess of nodes all over the place I started again and created a simple ordered set (Clip attached), that would let me try the different combinations.

Volker that little group to create Pi is way cool 

Here are some interesting shapes along with the node connections.  Nowhere nearly as advanced as where I guess you are but there may bo something in there 

Volker I can't start to imagine how yopu got those oblong "cobbles". 


EDIT  Clip removed; fixed version further on

Wow, awesome work Mr_Lamppost.

These are so cool.

[Mr_Lamppost]

The first one is an effect that I have been wondering how to do for a while, I want it in one of my other projects 

That multi coloured cell idea looks interesting.

I mentioned elsewhere that I thought this should be possible, hadn't tried it, in connection with applying colour variation to a population.  I may be wrong but I suspect that the instances in a population are placed at the centres (Not sure if that is the correct term), of Voronoi cells.  As long as the instanced object is smaller than the cell it should be possible to use a Voronoi Cell shader with the same parameters (spacing, Seed etc.), as the population as a blend function allowing colour variation.  I have not tested this and am unlikely to find the time anytime soon especially if you keep distracting me with WOW things. 


EDIT  removed broken clip

These are quite clever. I wonder if you take Heightfield erode v3 to the "vori_test_4" you could have a type of Dome Dune/Network Dune.
Also take the mutli-colors to "vori_test_1" and you could have soft rounded river pebbles in a river bed.

your work always fascinates me....

Third time lucky  This clip file has the missing node

Agreed. I had to clean my PC out today with my air compressor with all the dust and ash in the air she is running hot and slow. Soon though.

A bit off track but crazy voronoi sine distortions of position and scale, Fractals could be used:
