Overview

Generates a procedural scalar field across geometry.

Geometry Beta field source. Produces a procedural field over the connected geometry; an optional Time input provides timeline seconds for animated sampling.

geometry Geometry Required — See the overview for the node's documented behavior.
time Scalar Optional — Timeline seconds, typically from Time → Seconds

Properties

Scale Scalar 2 Yes Hard .01..16 · UI range: soft · Step .05 Animatable control; changing it over time varies the node response.
Octaves Scalar 3 Not declared Hard 1..6 · Step 1 Local control documented by the production node behavior.
Seed Scalar 0 Not declared Hard -100000..100000 · UI range: soft · Step 1 Local control documented by the production node behavior.
Speed Scalar 1 Not declared Hard -8..8 · UI range: soft · Step .05 Local control documented by the production node behavior.
Offset X Scalar 0 Yes Hard -1000..1000 · UI range: soft · Step .05 Animatable control; changing it over time varies the node response.
Offset Y Scalar 0 Yes Hard -1000..1000 · UI range: soft · Step .05 Animatable control; changing it over time varies the node response.
Offset Z Scalar 0 Yes Hard -1000..1000 · UI range: soft · Step .05 Animatable control; changing it over time varies the node response.

field GeometryField The production node output described by the overview.

Usage

In practice

  • Use Noise Field for irregular deformation masks or animated variation across a mesh.
  • Connect Time to the optional input when the field should follow timeline seconds.

Notes / limitations

  • Noise Field is a Geometry Beta field source; Octaves and Seed are not declared animatable.
