Title: WASasquatch's Material Library
Post by: WAS on July 04, 2018, 04:27:14 AM
Here I'll be posting texture packs for Terragen. Packs will include TIFF textures in as high as resolution and quality as possible, as well as TGD example file and TGC clip ready for use in a surface layer. The components were done as image maps for manipulation within TG (adding colour to colour map for example), and also because I was using objects with UV for testing and switching between Y and UV for 2D preview purposes.

First up is Gravel A: https://drive.google.com/open?id=14AGAGtU267nZlJBRcDEgCPFEm7RGkqyX

WASasquatch's (Jordan S.C. Thompson) Texture Packs located on this page our royalty free, free for commercial use, and so on. Have fun, and Terragen On.

Here is the second texture, Gravel B. I tried a suggestion from Kadri and tried stitching together two photographs of the gravel road outside my RV. I was than able to create a 4K texture set. My camera light (which is used in ambient light to correct directional casting light) creates some "green" tones which are hard to correct as they appear in patchwork. I would love a nice digital camera about now. Lol

Not particularly happy with the quality so I think I'll stitch, but downscale to 2K. My phone camera is just too fuzzy.

Gravel-B is in 2k but I feel looks a lot better considering my phones quality. A mix of Gravel, Dirt, and Pine Needles, and small spouts..

Douglas Fir A in 2K; a two photo stitch (tunk wasn't very wide and curvature effecting depth of the image and morphology). Colurs don't seem to translate over the best.

Nice initiative. I hardly use any textures, but some may be very handy. Are they tiled, so you can repeat them? Otherwise I suggest you make them tileable. And I would make those photographs straight from above, without shadows, or they will look strange if you view them from another angle than how they're photographed.
Stitching is great; I used to make landscape images of 8 or so photo's all stitched together, and they hang on my wall now at 2m wide with every sandgrain visible.

They're tillable, shot in ambient twilight with camera light constantly on to create straight casting light, 1:1 ratio, grid, etc. Stitching is necessary because of limited resolution, megapixel quality. The previews are renders, not the texture.  If I had a better camera with a wider FOV and better quality it wouldn't be necessary for a lot of what I'm texturing. Just can't wait to get out to the pass to take photos of rock forms.

IMO, texture implies it's a seamless, well, texture, otherwise it's just a stock photo, for some reason with depth map and bump and stuff hehe. At least when it's not bundled with a object for specific UV.

Reason I'm doing these is looking over RD's gallery with work using a lot of their products: https://www.rd-textures.com/gallery/

Stone-Granite-A 2K based on a old weathered boulder left over from the glacial period that carved out Puget Sound.

Note: Still wondering what those lines are on rock objects in the displacement. Faces? I have faces to 512 here.

Brick-Type-A is based on a turn of the century building, that itself, was made from recycled brick of unknown age. I spent some time doing a custom displacement map, as well as a detailed depth map to combine. Added examples of a colourable brick set, and a coloured brick set with procedural [moss] accents. Wish I had better MPD but still good enough previews.

Procedural Cast Iron shaders. Old and new. Due to the roughness map, roughness may need adjusting in certain lighting. Spent awhile making sure it looked good under different lighting but more a to the taste thing.

Added a v2 for the Old Cast Iron with a little more roughness for horizon lighting, makes it a little less refractive.

Chromatic Anodization effects using the roughness feature and some other little tricks to bring stuff out. The colouring with the roughness feature is very sporadic and sensitive. Hard to get combinations you actually one. Loves to toss in green with reds.

Title: Brass Shader Collection
Post by: WAS on August 19, 2018, 10:23:48 PM
Here is the Brass Shader Collection for your enjoyment.

These are done on a pretty small scale, so for larger things you may need to tack in transform shader to scale it, as well as provide a Final Position for object surfaces if you're using it that way.

Gathered project to render them all for viewing with the Multi-ShaderBall, and an archive with just the shader TGCs.

Yeah it's really not easy. This is what I've gotten so far, and mind you I've had this project for at least a week or two. Just can't get the look right.

The middle one looks close by my eye but maybe less intensity in the Specular...

Yeah, it seems the specular roughness is slightly bugged. Once you plug anything with any sort of roughness in it likes to create specular highlights, even when the specular highlights is currently at 0.5 of 1 with a reflection of 0.8 because the roughness function just made it "glow". You can see this with the far left one more because it has matt displacement also feeding into the roughness. So it's just "brighter" despite all the same settings.

Really feel the reflection shader could benefit from a "Reflective Function" instead of using masks and just roughness.

Title: Raw Wood Grain Shaders
Post by: WAS on August 25, 2018, 01:25:59 PM
Raw Wood Grain Shaders. They don't play too nice with TGs ability to render small detail, but it looks decent I guess.

You can play around with the base wood grain PFs (for diff color definitions or what not), but keep in mind you'll likely need to rebalance the low and high specular/displacement colour adjusts to get a smooth displacement/specular map. Note that you'll also have to orient to wood grain direction as well with the Grain Orientation (Rotate) shader.

Realized I packed up the wrong save with a little too much surface displacement. B has less surface displacement to show grains better.

Rock1 PBR (Approximated) Material for Terragen in 6k

6k is as high as I could go, and that's with stitching, and additional quality improvements in photoshop. I kept the diffuse pretty simple so it didn't get too repetitive and could be augmented with TG shaders.

Jordan,

Your shaders are awesome!  Have you (or anyone else) created an aluminum shader (matte, brushed, or whatever)?  With my limited experience of TG shader networks, I've been trying to modify your chrome shader with little success.  I'm trying to teach myself more about this aspect of TG atm.

Thx,
Niel

Post by: WAS on July 15, 2019, 12:47:19 PM
I have not, but I could give it a go. The standard renderer and me don't get along with steels and chromes so may optimize for PT if I do.

Decided to try a photo based texture again. Basic fir bark shader. I didn't like the colour bleeding in the original photographs, so I recoloured it.

Made with 3 10MP panoramas, however due to the low level detail loss of my camera, the final texture is down scaled to 4k.

Comes with the basic dead tree, just for a trunk really but you're all more than welcome to it.
