Super Bump - Shadow casting parallax occlusion for Eevee Blender 3D

[@IsaiahSugar]

such a cool implementation! is it inspired by acerola?

[@nodesandnoodles]

Thank you! What's acerola?

He’s a KZbinr who does a lot of unity shader stuff, think he made a video about parallax occlusion @@nodesandnoodles

In your screenshot, when you add it (via material tab) it says SCPOL! However, when buying and installing the addon, it just says "add super bump" here and it doesn't seem like you can just add it to your existing mesh / textures, but you have to choose a plane, cylinder or sphere.. ? The video is a big confusing in that regards ._. can you elaborate how to really use that addon?

[@nodesandnoodles]

Yes, SCPOL was the development title for this addon. I see you have found the setup guide video, it will help answer your other questions.

Wow really useful. Is this for sale or tutorial?

[@nodesandnoodles]

Thanks Eli! This one is for sale from my Gumroad store: nodesandnoodles.gumroad.com/l/superbump

Is it work with cycles?

[@nodesandnoodles]

No, Super Bump is for Eevee as a replacement for Cycles's material displacement. If you're working exclusively with Cycles, you should just use material displacement.

[@ivomirrikerpro3805]

A shame Blender has no native POM support. I am guessing this add-on works with Principle BSDF V2... but does it work with Eevee Next?

[@nodesandnoodles]

All it needs is an alpha channel, so it'll work, but if you're using Eevee Next, you would probably use material displacement instead.

@@nodesandnoodles the benefit is not having to massively subdivide to get proper occlusion IMO
