Procedural Question

[matt-sony]

I remember reading somewhere that there is a procedural texture in XSI, which whilst not specifically designed for this, does a damn good job - I want to create layers of dirt/grime on a few of my models.

Can anyone refresh my memory as to what this texture was? Or, even better, does anyone have any good advice on how to do it or where to look at how to do it?

Thanks again.

I should set up a website called

'matt's stupid questions.com'

Hmmm, can a question be procedural? Interesting. I've been having some ok results using the normal fractal shader through a color correction into the mix2colors to add some dirt to my base material. Remember to mask off your speculars+reflections too. I manually painted the mask for the dirt using the vertex paint tool and a vertex rgba shader. Check the branch texture tutorial on edharriss.com for reference. Hope this was at least remotely helpful.
