Blender Node Group Collection

Collection of node groups (for shader or geometry nodes)

List of node groups (Table of Contents)

• 📌 ClampVector (for shader)
  • Implementation
• 📌 PointRate (for geometry nodes)
  • Implementation
• 📌 ToInstance (for geometry nodes)
  • Implementation
• 📌 Vertex Color Alpha (for shader)
  • Implementation
• 📌 Unlit Shader (for shader)
  • Implementation

Install

• Install Node Presets addon from blender extension.
• Put xxx.blend file into your directory of Node Presets.
• You can now add my utility nodes by "Node > Add > Template > XXX".

Usage

📌 ClampVector (for shader)

Clamps vector by min / max.

Implementation

📌 PointRate (for geometry nodes)

Get rate of point (ID / count) from mesh or curve

(always returns 0.0 to 1.0 on each points, in order by ID)

Implementation

Side note

• to detect of mesh or curves, used reference: https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/305209/geometry-nodes-how-to-check-object-type

📌 ToInstance (for geometry nodes)

DEPRECATED: use Geometry to Instance node instead.

Make geometry into single instance. This is useful when creating instance collection for Pick Instance on Instance On Points. (For detail, see the movie below.)

Implementation

📌 Vertex Color Alpha (for shader)

Vertex Color Unlit shader (kind of like a grease pencil). This is useful in combination with GP to Colored Curves mesh.

Implementation

📌 Unlit Shader (for shader)

Unlit shader with alpha. (This is minimalist version of Vertex Color Alpha. Probably useful for Toon shading with alpha.)
