There's no limit to how complex it can weave.

There is a limit to how much you can tolerate typing in all the bands. The pattern you showed me has 14 bands in it, as follows.

a = IColor(0, 96, 170)  

b = WHITE  

c = BLACK  

d = IColor(149, 149, 149)  

clrs = [   (a, 54),   (b, 8),   (c, 8),   (d, 4),   (c, 4),   (d, 4),   (c, 8),   (b, 8),   (a, 54),   (b, 4),   (a, 4),   (b, 4),   (a, 4),   (b, 4),  ]

I increased the EZMat plugin to support 14 bands, but I can't imagine people will really want to deal with 28 parameters like that, without the factoring that is possible as I did above. (That is the actual setup in the script, in Python. I was able to define the four colors as a, b, c, d, so it was easy to type. Entering all the information in a GUI is painful and tedious.)

 


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
