Is there a way to make it work in landscapes? For example to paint wetness over different textures. To make it know that if it paints over grass, grass would be wet, if it's over concrete, concrete would get wet. I wish there was a way of tinting these textures on top of just vertex painting difference ones. Like having sections that are darker. Just to add more realism. But I have no idea how.. Great tutorial, thank You! Just what I was looking for!

[@HojDee]

Landscapes are different. We can't do it the way you mentioned. Or if we can, I don't know about it

[@gokussj4af2]

Another quick one. Do You know if there is a possibility to tint these or top? I feel like concretes a lot of the time are missing some slight tints (brown or darkish tones) to make it really pop.

[@HojDee]

Do you mean to tint the weathering effect?

[@AryansinghT60]

this is great. i had one question - can we show something like this on curved meshes. For eg - imagine an offroad vehicle with its tyres covered in mud/dirt. is it possible to paint some height based mud/dirt on tyres?? I did a visualisation of a pickup truck in Unreal a couple of years back, had to settle with decals then.

[@HojDee]

I haven't tried this, but it should be possible. Just don't add the vertex normal node. The mud doesn't need to be only on the top of the tire.

[@AryansinghT60]

@@HojDee I'll give it a try. Thanks!!

[@HojDee]

@@AryansinghT60 after rendering send me the result, I wanna see the truck :)

[@microbounce2009]

this should become a tool ... it is difficult to create for each project so many nodes. it takes a lot of time ... I would give you all my money haha.

[@HojDee]

That's why I've put the project on my patreon :)) For those who want to get the final material

[@microbounce2009]

@@HojDee I can modify the material to my liking. With any other texture ?🤩🤩

[@HojDee]

@@microbounce2009 yeah you can! :)
