Doesnt matter what it looks like, you cant work around it in C++ either without rewriting core classes
cursive crypt
Wait, work around what?
pearl elk
See how Im unrolling the loop manually?
thats because Material Parameter Collections only take names, you cant pass arrays
The collection has to be an object created in the editor, cant do it programmatically because its hard wired to the material node
cursive crypt
It is how it is with the Dyn materials tho, no?
pearl elk
Dynamic Material Instances are alittle better, still set via name but you can atleast do those programatically
Cant use those on Landscape though, I tried

cursive crypt
Impressive, adding nodes to the Material editor.
pearl elk
atm Im generating an array of linear colors but Id much prefer to use a curve
I can write the code to turn an array of colors to a curve but theres no way to use them in materials
cursive crypt
ofc, the biggest issue is there, lol
pearl elk
Id only need to pass a float for the time value then
its a gradient if I slide along the float to each key, much nicer than messing with arrays
cursive crypt
Can't you fancy lerp that instead?
pearl elk
Looks like I can use a Curve Atlas
But those only work for Dynamic Materials, which isnt terrible. Just odd that theres so many different workflows depending on what youre doing, doesnt feel cohesive at all
That doesnt let me use the entire gradient at once by the look either, I can only use color at time
I wanna use the curve for the bars on gas and ice giants
cursive crypt
Well, there you go. Curves in materials. Told you I know Santa.
pearl elk
Yeah saves me passing colors individually and replaces it with the need to pass floats lol
atleast I can convert an index to float if I keep all the keys on int values

Nah not a huge amount but when you compare to 3dsmaxs noise maps which have been in there since the 90s ๐
Oh and this whole thing is a material function
mossy nexus
Indeed.
projects the noise into 3D space using either world or local position, controlled via min/max, I think?
pearl elk
yup and there is the seed which allows me to phase the noise if I input a time
mossy nexus
what's the intended end use?
pearl elk
its used in place of just the flat noise
its basically just a copy of the 3dsmax noise map functionality
that has all the UV, phasing etc inbuilt
mossy nexus
I was going to ask that earlier when you compared it to the 3dsmax type, how compact are their node systems but you've answered it ๐ I've noticed a lot of software has similar functionality. Doing the hard work behind the scenes as it were
pearl elk
This one is WIP, still not happy with the glow on the edges but Im moving away from texture samplers to noise. The noise gives me really nice sun spots tbh
I was having issues with samplers where when Id scale Id get seams, I could bake out smaller scale noise but the phasing is quite nice for that gaseous turbulence I'll need for stars, gas/ice giants etc

Nice ๐
Take it you're using a fresnel somewhere in there for the edge glows?
pearl elk
Youre right though, many shader apps tend to just put all this into a map node keeping all the nuances behind the scenes. UE does have different levels of materials though whether youre working with layers, blends etc or the more expression type stuff
I feel like Epic would do good to try to improve the UX abit so its more inline, its not bad just feels kinda dated. Ive seen node editors which allow you to edit curves, gradients, etc directly in the nodes
Almost like a BP prototype version from pre UE4 lol
mossy nexus
Well don't worry 5.2 is going to be adding a load of material like stuff. Maybe something good, useful, and stable will appear ๐
pearl elk
I doubt it'll be anything on the level I hope for but Im not that fussy, I know Niagara took a hell of a long time but its insane how techy that is. Feels like BP++
I think part of the issue is the way we make software in general, we have contexts for functionality. Oh this function is for Audio, for Particles, Materials or Gameplay when you've duplicated the same functionality just because the terminology is different between fields

there is no datasets after the model is trained, it's not really mapping anything
It's not reaching into a massive dataset to find the answer, that's not how AI's work really
It's based on transformer networks which are basically attempting to predict what you want to hear, based on your prompt
But the cool feature about these networks is that they can "hallucinate"/approximate answers and this is the cool part, it can produce wrong answers because of this but it also allows it to connect context and come up with stuff that it hasn't been even trained on
It's a lot more complex and interesting than people give it credit

Almost the exact same thing
they are using that "dataset" they were surrounded with
they are basically a glorified browser repeating what they heard
