Using Procedural Textures in Blender

In this video, we’ll look at how to create a custom node group and store it in Blender for use in future projects.
This tutorial also discussed the paid Node 2 Code add-on, but this is not required to achieve the effect.
I love procedural textures. I was an ace at it in the 2000s with 3d studio but have found blenders way of doing things hard to get my head around. I will watch every procedural texture tutorial you do. this one was great as I was building a mad max style motor bike and had been fooling with the same effect my self
A great tutorial, indeed, so clear and interesting. A lot of thanks from France.
Quick questions for anyone: has performance of Blender prcedural textures increased? I used them for an interior scene I did a while back and couldn’t figure out why it was rendering so slowly. Then I read that procedurals (at least for big scenes with lots of them) slowed things down a lot. Baked them all into high res image maps and it increased performance considerably. Curious if this is still the case. Thanks for the tutorial, watching it now!
It’s still as you say.Procedurals slow down Cycles, while more complex ones won’t probably work in EEVEE
