Iray+ Flake Noise

The Iray+ Flake Noise map simulates speckles on the surface of a texture. This has many applications including car paints, glitter and metallic flakes.

Parameters

Intensity

Determines the maximum reflectivity of any flake. This will have no effect if attached to a Normal/Bump parameter.

Range: 0 – ∞

FlakeNoise: Intensity: 0.5 — Intensity: **0.5**

FlakeNoise: Intensity: 1.0 — Intensity: **1.0**

FlakeNoise: Intensity: 1.5 — Intensity: **1.5**

Density

Controls the amount of flakes. The space between flakes will increase at higher values. This will have no effect if attached to a Normal/Bump parameter.

Range: 0 – ∞

FlakeNoise: Density: 0.5 — Density: **0.5**

FlakeNoise: Density: 1.0 — Density: **1.0**

FlakeNoise: Density: 1.5 — Density: **1.5**

Scale

Controls the size of features in the pattern.

Range: 0 – ∞

FlakeNoise: Scale: 0.001 — Scale: **0.001**

FlakeNoise: Scale: 0.01 — Scale: **0.01**

✱ Note: the FlipTangent checkboxes on a geometry component's Normal parameter will not function if a Noise map or Bump map is attached; only Normal maps will be affected.
