Thanks, Believable3d, Did that and it was amazingling helpful as you can see by the music room I put up.  That is BB's envosphere with a panarama on it.  It is a fantastic tool, better than any of the other skydomes out there.  So versatile.  I'm on a roll.  More tomorrow. ...

Yeah, sorry, I didn't initially see there was another page of discussion and everything had been covered. Hence, I deleted my post. :p

As they say, its all good.  I appreciate everything  we have been learning here.

Very nice. Though you need to reduce the spacing between the panels as well.

Tiles, are rarely layed down square to the walls.
Here a tip to turn the tiles 45° as they usually are.

vilters:  I really like that tip, thanks. 

Hello Boni; Use the tile node?
And use my tip I just posted to turn the tiles a more realistical 45° to the walls.

From my setup?
Where the blue and red color are? Set them to white, and plug the texture in there.
Or. use a procedural wood shader there and tile those?
I think that is what BB's coming to / going to.

It already is using the tile mode.  It's a little wonky.  I was referring to the original parquet set up.  See illustration.  My internet connecting is sluggish this morning.  I've been having some stalls, sorry.

Here is the screenshot I've been trying to upload for the last several minutes.  Sorry about that.

Well, if you're looking for criticism, I'd say your lighting setup sucks on this one.

this uses cellular node from one of 35 poser wood procedurals in basic fresnel diffuse shader.

BB's wood-tiling script may have more variables.

p.s. boni - there's no img in yer last post.

P.S., Miss Nancy, what was the name of that shader?

used poser pro/basic materials/woods/wood2.  just cellular node, nothing else.  wood node may also work, but didn't try it.  plug cellular node into diffuse fresnel shader (AKA conservation of energy).

I've been working with these settings and nothing comes close to what you have Miss Nancy.  I've even tried starting from scratch.  I get almost there with wood plugged into either tile (good depth but even spacing) or brick (good spacing but can't get depth for mortar) It looks like cheap furniture with particle board covered with pictures of wood.

tile or brick causes pattern to form which distracts viewer, hence one needs randomiser.  one way is extensive scripting, but until script released, try applying diffuse fresnel wood shader to single plank of desired dimensions, then duplicate/shift/rotate as desired.

Ah, that is why the texture was applied to a box figure!  I get it.  Okay.  Thanks, Miss Nancy.  :) I might wait to see what BB has to offer ... in the meantime I'll probably use the simple cheats I found.  Ok ... so I'm a bit lazy.

bump

Good call Clarkie, Let's see about converting these to Superfly? I did work on that a couple months ago ... I will look in my runtimes later this morning.

bump again I need to keep this thread around for a while longer.

Did anybody ever put out a base tile shader for this thread?

Bumping this again for Clarkie!! Never did get to the Superfly shaders, but will as soon as I can ... working on a PE project at the moment.

Since BagginsBill did not publish his shader yet, you may start with this:

Download Shader here

This allows you to connect different shaders to Tile1, Tile2 and Mortar. The tile node above is used to generate the Tiles, the colors there are just for separating the components. Use the Color, Roughness and Bump inputs on the compound nodes to connect your own shader.

The size of the tiles can be changes with the tiles node. If you have a normal node, connect the normal compound node with the normal input on the Root node and connect your normal maps to the compound node.

Probably just a starter, but maybe helpfull to some.

bantha! This is amazing! thank you!!!

This is another method of avoiding the wood/marble texture pattern continuing from one tile/board to the next.

You could also use black in the RGB map and add another marble/wood tile.

Gonna keep this around for awhile. Also, looking for the soapy shader one.

For those that have no use for math and matmatic, here is the setup that produces the Corner function. The math node Math_Functions_7 is the k value. In this screen shot, k is 4.

I must be doing something wrong because I can't even make the tile render.

That post only works in FireFly. Are you doing SuperFly? Displacement can't really be used for tiles in SuperFly. Try using the bump channel instead of displacement with the same node setup.

I did one in Superfly and several in Firefly. And I did one with each root node. No luck.

I was only using the cloth Plane though, both hi-res and regular. Maybe that was the problem?
