Principled BSDF – Принципове BSDF

The Principled BSDF that combines multiple layers into a single easy to use node. It is based on the Disney principled model also known as the «PBR» shader, making it compatible with other software such as Pixar’s Renderman^® and Unreal Engine^®. Image textures painted or baked from software like Substance Painter^® may be directly linked to the corresponding parameters in this shader.

This «Uber» shader includes multiple layers to create a wide variety of materials. The base layer is a user controlled mix between diffuse, metal, subsurface scattering and transmission. On top of that there is a specular layer, sheen layer and clearcoat layer.

Примітка

The emphasis on compatibility with other software means that it interprets certain input parameters differently from older Blender nodes.

Inputs – Уводи

Base Color – Базовий Колір

Колір поверхні розсіяння – Diffuse або металу – Metal.

Підповерхневе – Subsurface

Mix between diffuse and subsurface scattering. Rather than being a simple mix between Diffuse and Subsurface Scattering, it acts as a multiplier for the Subsurface Radius.

Subsurface Radius

Average distance that light scatters below the surface. Higher radius gives a softer appearance, as light bleeds into shadows and through the object. The scattering distance is specified separately for the RGB channels, to render materials such as skin where red light scatters deeper. The X, Y and Z values are mapped to the R, G and B values, respectively.

Subsurface Color

Subsurface scattering base color.

Subsurface IOR Cycles Only

Index of refraction for Subsurface Scattering.

Subsurface Anisotropy Cycles Only

Controls the directionality of subsurface scattering.

Metallic – Металік

Blends between a non-metallic and metallic material model. A value of 1.0 gives a fully specular reflection tinted with the base color, without diffuse reflection or transmission. At 0.0 the material consists of a diffuse or transmissive base layer, with a specular reflection layer on top.

Блік – Specular

Amount of dielectric specular reflection. Specifies facing (along normal) reflectivity in the most common 0 - 8% range.

Підказка

To compute this value for a realistic material with a known index of refraction, you may use this special case of the Fresnel formula: \(specular = ((ior - 1)/(ior + 1))^2 / 0.08\)

Наприклад:

• water: ior = 1.33, specular = 0.25

• glass: ior = 1.5, specular = 0.5

• diamond: ior = 2.417, specular = 2.15

Since materials with reflectivity above 8% do exist, the field allows values above 1.

Specular Tint

Tints the facing specular reflection using the base color, while glancing reflection remains white.

Normal dielectrics have colorless reflection, so this parameter is not technically physically correct and is provided for faking the appearance of materials with complex surface structure.

Roughness – Шорсткість

Визначає дріброграневу шорсткість поверхні для розсіяного – diffuse та блікового – specular відбиття.

Анізотропне – Anisotropic Cycles Only

Amount of anisotropy for specular reflection. Higher values give elongated highlights along the tangent direction; negative values give highlights shaped perpendicular to the tangent direction.

Анізотропне Обертання – Anisotropic Rotation Cycles Only

Обертає напрямок анізотропії, значення 1.0 дає повний оберт.

Підказка

Compared to the Anisotropic BSDF node, the direction of highlight elongation is rotated by 90°. Add 0.25 to the value to correct.

Блиск – Sheen

Amount of soft velvet like reflection near edges, for simulating materials such as cloth.

Sheen Tint

Mix between white and using base color for sheen reflection.

Полакованість – Clearcoat

Extra white specular layer on top of others. This is useful for materials like car paint and the like.

Clearcoat Roughness:

Roughness of clearcoat specular.

IOR – Показник Заломлення

Index of refraction for transmission.

Transmission – Пропускання

Mix between fully opaque surface at zero and fully glass like transmission at one.

Transmission Roughness Cycles Only

With GGX distribution controls roughness used for transmitted light.

Emission – Емісія

Light emission from the surface, like the Emission shader.

Сила Емісії – Emission Strength

Strength of the emitted light. A value of 1.0 will ensure that the object in the image has the exact same color as the Emission Color, i.e. make it „shadeless“.

Alpha – Альфа

Controls the transparency of the surface, with 1.0 fully opaque. Usually linked to the Alpha output of an Image Texture node.

Normal – Нормаль

Керує нормалями базових шарів.

Clearcoat Normal

Controls the normals of the Clearcoat layer.

Tangent – Тангенс

Controls the tangent for the Anisotropic layer.

Properties – Властивості

Розподіл – Distribution

Використовуваний розподіл дрібних граней.

GGX:

A method that is faster than Multiple-scattering GGX but is less physically accurate. Selecting it enables the Transmission Roughness input.

Multiple-scattering GGX:

Takes multiple bounce (scattering) events between microfacets into account. This gives a more energy conserving results, which would otherwise be visible as excessive darkening.

Метод Підповерхневе – Subsurface Method

Метод рендерингу для симулювання підповерхневого розсіювання.

Примітка

Eevee does use not support the Random Walk methods.

Крістенсен-Берлі – Christensen-Burley:

An approximation to physically-based volume scattering. This method is less accurate than Random Walk however, in some situations this method will resolve noise faster.

Random Walk (Fixed Radius):

Provides accurate results for thin and curved objects. Random Walk uses true volumetric scattering inside the mesh, which means that it works best for closed meshes. Overlapping faces and holes in the mesh can cause problems.

Випадковий Хід – Random Walk:

Behaves similarly to Random Walk (Fixed Radius) but modulates the Subsurface Radius based on the Color, Subsurface Anisotropy, and Subsurface IOR. This method thereby attempts to retain greater surface detail and color than Random Walk (Fixed Radius).
