Title: Grid layers
Post by: PuffnStuff on March 07, 2026, 11:03:16 PM
It's been mighty slow here lately, so here's a small offering. Two single-node clip files to superimpose grid layers on objects - one square, the other radial. Pop them into your shader group to aid scene creation and object placement.

Too slow here. I figure I'll resurrect an old presence after a public meltdown a few years back. May even resurrect the old handle, eventually.

It's been slow here for quite a while. I guess many users switched to Unreal or Blender or something. Thanks for posting these, checking out what they do, now.
There's Discord now, which is the main channel (though not too lively either). https://discord.com/channels/979379973854994432/979379973854994437 (https://discord.com/channels/979379973854994432/979379973854994437)

Dune, et al -

My apologies to all.

There's an error in one of these files - it was built from a custom shader setup and will try to connect to a non-existent shader node when inserted into a default project. (Missed that.)

Right. Now, as if that weren't stupid enough...  how do I upload a corrected version into this thread? Any idea?

You did before, didn't you? So it should be the same procedure, just add an attachment. I also think as the 'thread owner' you can delete the original thread and make a new post.

Clips worked for me though. 

Btw. there's more ways to get grids, so I had a go myself and came up with an alternative. Slightly less nodes.

Right - got it. Here's a correct version of mine. I'm going to check yours out - I'll take your word for it that it's simpler.
