Noise Field
VFX Loom 1.1.0 reference for the Geometry Beta Noise Field node.
Fields
generator.geometryNoiseField
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.

Inputs
| Input | Type | Required | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| geometry | Geometry | Required | — | See the overview for the node's documented behavior. |
| time | Scalar | Optional | — | Timeline seconds, typically from Time → Seconds |
Properties
| Property | Type | Default | Animatable | Range / options | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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. |
Outputs
| Output | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 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.
