Subject: P5 material node help? Stewer?

I was wonderin' if (hopin') there's any way to make a node/ combination that will give a "radial blur" type effect? TIA

Do you mean like a radial blur in Photoshop? Depending on what you want to be blurred, it's probably easier to either do it in post or to enable motion blur and either zoom the camera or scale the objects you want to be blurred.

Yeah, like Photoshop. I'm tryin' to do a "textureless" image, else I'd have done the whole 40 seconds worth of work in Photoshop.

I googled and found this recipe for Radial Blur. When turned into a set of Nodes (after a lot of tweaking values), I get whats shown above.

Same Nodes, different image.

Now for the (sort of) bad news, because of the number of steps required to get a decent effect, I wrote a Wacro to generate the network.
So if you can get a few steps to give you an acceptable effect, then it's possible to set up by hand.

Here's a simple directional blur test we tried a few weeks ago, its a similar method but with an offset in U/V used to create the blur.

You would need a similar setup but use a scale in UV to create the 'radial blur', on each image the UV scale is getting smaller.

We used only 8 images but the more you add the less stepped the resulting blurred image will be.
