thats just awesome! works perfectly, tnx! dont know how i can thank u. how long did it take u to write the shader? u want something in return?
what does the Orm parameter do? ive applied a packed map with AO in red, roughness in blue and metallic in green channel but it looks too shiny maybe im packing the channels wrong
You have blue and green swapped.
I also forgot to make AO and tinting do anything, so I updated it to fix that and also made it use better default values.

I wrote most of it 2 months ago :)
@DJM said: u want something in return?
no.
@spacecloud said:
no.
ok, tnx anyway, exactly what i needed
@spacecloud the triplanar shader is broken in alpha 9 could i make a similar shader with the visual shader editor? i havent tried that feature yet
I updated the download with one that works with alpha 9.
You probably could, but i can't help with that.
@spacecloud tnx!
@spacecloud im getting this warning when using your triplanar shader

weird, it's used in triplanar_texture
Honestly, that's an ignorable warning but I'd make sure you have no typos in your code that might cause it.
edit: it might be because you are reading it's components not the whole varying, i.e. the linter warning you is just a bit too dumb to deal with it. Ignorable warning.
That warning seems like a bug. The varying is clearly being written and read from. You might want to make an issue about it on Github.
spacecloud yes it is. weird.
Megalomaniak yeah its not really an error and doesnt show strange results, ill ignore it.
cybereality id rather make a bug report for my 'fake wind' shader i wrote.

if i use this shader the editor becomes extremely slow. it also doesnt give the correct results. but it also might be my shader code is wrong
spacecloud how do i add an overall 'detail normal map' and a a black and white multiply 'detail color' to the complete triplanar material with its own scale?
Pre PBS the black and white detail map would just get multiplied over the diffuse, nowadays you might do that in albedo, but I'd recommend to multiply or multiply-add it to the roughness instead. If you feel the effect is too weak then maybe consider also albedo.
Mixing normals is a bit more delicate and don't forget to normalize the result at the end. You might find some glsl examples via google, for an example on shadertoy.com
i did it!!!
@Megalomaniak tnx for your shadertoy suggestion!
heres the shader if anybody is interested, u will need a mesh with painted vertex colors red green and blue
, works in godot4 , dont know if it will work in godot3

nope i was wrong, the base triplanar normal seems to be inverted on some places
this page might come in handy, I neglected to add the link in my previous post:
https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/shaders/converting_glsl_to_godot_shaders.html
Megalomaniak
to difficult for me to really understand the normal blending. i simply messed around with an example on shadertoy.
strange thing is that it works correctly on specific axises and others dont.
