Noise 3D

3D noise whose basis is picked at runtime through the Noise Type pin. Wire a Noise Type selector, or any int source, and swap between Perlin, Simplex and Value without rewiring anything.

The Noise 3D node

When to use it

3D noise whose basis is picked at runtime through the Noise Type pin. Wire a Noise Type selector, or any int source, and swap between Perlin, Simplex and Value without rewiring anything.

Those three are the whole list. White Noise and Cellular Noise are separate nodes and this pin cannot reach them.

Worth it when the basis is genuinely data-driven or you are comparing two of them side by side. When it is not, the fixed nodes say on the canvas which noise you are getting, and six months later that matters.

Pins

Pin Type Description
Frequency Number How tight the pattern is. Higher numbers give you finer, busier detail.
OffsetX Number Slide the pattern along X.
OffsetY Number Slide the pattern along Y.
OffsetZ Number Slide the pattern along Z.
Seed Whole Number Change this for a different pattern at the same settings. The same seed always gives you the same noise.
NoiseType Choice Which flavour of noise to use. Wire a Noise Type node in to swap it from the graph.
