Like"FStorm GeoPattern" corona pattern

Looking at the latest example, i wonder if object made with geo-pattern, can be textured or is it limited to colour/material of pattern object?

Is this something that may be actively worked on in future?
It seems like one of those things that its the way forward in terms of not having to fake complex materials.
The pillow example above is incredible

I think I switch to Fstorm, because I really need this function for the type of images I’m doing.

Frankly I’m amazed this one has slipped by every engine after it was again introduced in Vray, after all the help it gave in the form of VrayPattern. Bought it the second it was available and the memory handling was just beautiful. FYI as I recall, it’s not a memory-friendly tool to substitute to scattering forests or the like, rather very efficient for close up details like fabric of the like. Anything on the foreground benefitted of the original one and the forest patterns were on par with the usual pattern mehods. I mean it is really efficient with memory usage but don’t expect it to be any better when scattering large areas. That’s how it’s been with Vray and FStorm, at least :smiley:

Genial feature.

Reason it slipped because it was poorly presented. I remember I had absolutely no clue what would it be good for ? It was presented using weird demos of tiling facades (british terraced streets,etc..).
There is reason why it became abadonware, no one bought it and the dude didn’t continue development like everything else he started (multiscatter,etc..).

But now that we know it’s perfect for tiled micro-detail, the answer is big yes please. Want +1

There has been no devs post in here since april but it remains one of the most popular request threads. Can anyone chime in on whether this feature could or might be implemented in future?

Ondra has added geopattern to the most wanted features poll, so it’s definitely has catched devs attention. You can cast your voice here: https://forum.corona-renderer.com/ The most wanted feature?

Spot on thank you!

++1 for a GeoPattern

++++++1 for geopattern

It is, so what is your stance on this feature today Ondra? Do you have time and resources?

Since it is 13:27 already and still nobody today posted here:

+1000! :wink:

To everyone’s attention! Since Ondra’s +1 is actually multiplied by at least 1000, i would like to ask to restrain yourself from unnecessary +1’s, as those won’t change much anymore. From now on, minimal countable vote starts from +googol. Thank you! :]

well that escalated quickly…

in that case in all its beauty:

from me :smiley:

It’s over +9000!!!

+1 :wink:

Does anyone knows if geopattern can be converted to mesh? I’ve a task where i need to create complex shapes out of repeating patterns and looking for modelling aid tool. I’m also considering railclone, but it’s much harder to master and i don’t have much time for this assignement.
