Coordinate space

Shrinks the UVW space to a non-unitary interval along the U direction.

Crop W direction

Python: "map_xform_crop_z"

Shrinks the UVW space to a non-unitary interval along the W direction.

Master repeat

Python: "map_xform_repeat"

Inverse scale the map is generated at. This parameter pre-multiplies the X/Y/Z repeat values. Note that local/world spaces tile at 1mx1mx1m by default.

Repeat U

Python: "map_xform_repeat_x"

Repeats the map along the X/U axis. Increasing this value increases repetition.

Enable U repetition

Python: "map_xform_tile_x"

Allows map repetition along the X/U axis. When disallowed, the map becomes zero outside the [0..1] (or cropped) X/U interval.

Clamp vs. repeat (U)

Python: "map_xform_clamp_x"

Toggles between clamped vs. repeated output outside the [0..1] (or cropped) X/U interval.

Repeat V

Python: "map_xform_repeat_y"

Repeats the map along the Y/V axis. Increasing this value increases repetition.

Enable V repetition

Python: "map_xform_tile_y"

Allows map repetition along the Y/V axis. When disallowed, the map becomes zero outside the [0..1] (or cropped) Y/V interval.

Clamp vs. repeat (V)

Python: "map_xform_clamp_y"

Toggles between clamped vs. repeated output outside the [0..1] (or cropped) X/V interval.

Repeat W

Python: "map_xform_repeat_z"

Repeats the map along the Z/W axis. Increasing this value increases repetition.

Enable W repetition

Python: "map_xform_tile_z"

Allows map repetition along the Z/W axis. When disallowed, the map becomes zero outside the [0..1] (or cropped) Z/W interval.

Clamp vs. repeat (W)

Python: "map_xform_clamp_z"

Toggles between clamped vs. repeated output outside the [0..1] (or cropped) X/W interval.

Translate U

Python: "map_xform_translate_x"

Offsets the map along the X/U axis.

Translate V

Python: "map_xform_translate_y"

Offsets the map along the Y/V axis.

Translate W

Python: "map_xform_translate_z"

Offsets the map along the Z/W axis.

Rotate U

Python: "map_xform_rotate_x"

Rotate V

Python: "map_xform_rotate_y"

Rotates the map about the Y/V axis. Positive values rotate the map counter-clockwise.

Python: "map_xform_rotate_z"

Rotates the map about the Z/W axis. Positive values rotate the map counter-clockwise.

UV distortion

UV distortion map

Python: "map_distortion_map"

Enable UV noise

Python: "map_distortion_noise_enable"

Toggles noise distortion in the UVW space on/off.

Noise amount

Python: "map_distortion_noise"

Amount of noise distortion applied to the UVs before they are used.

Noise size

Python: "map_distortion_noise_size"

Amplitude of the noise distortion. This value is given in UVW space; e.g., 0.1 means that the maximum distortion is about 1/10th of a 1x1x1 texture tile.

Noise octaves

Python: "map_distortion_noise_octaves"

Number of times the noise algorithm overlaps onto itself to add high-frequency details.

Noise randomize

Python: "map_distortion_blur_enable"

Toggles jitter blur in the UVW space on/off.

Jitter blur radius

Python: "map_distortion_blur"

Amount of 2D gaussian (jittering) blur applied to the UVs before they are used. This value is given in UVW space. Note that this type of blur may cause sampling noise that takes long to dissolve. Note also that jitter blur does not produce gamma-correct results, and can't be used for bump or displacement height maps.
