Node Reference


Dusting

Simulate › Snow
Shortcode ds

Dusting is a lightweight snow node which adds a thin layer of snow to your scene with a focus on creating light sprinklings of snow.

This node can be used with or without Snow.

Properties

SnowfallControls the intensity of the snow dusting effect, determining how visible and thick the light snow layer appears.
StrengthControls the intensity of the snow dusting effect, determining how visible and thick the light snow layer appears.
SnowlineSets the elevation at which snow begins to appear, defining the lower boundary for snow coverage.
FalloffControls the softness of the transition near the snowline, blending the snow edge smoothly into the terrain.
DistributionEnables or adjusts wind-driven accumulation, causing snow to gather more on one side of terrain features.
DirectionalEnables or adjusts wind-driven accumulation, causing snow to gather more on one side of terrain features.
DirectionSets the primary direction for wind-driven snow accumulation, simulating the effect of prevailing winds.
PeaksControls additional snow accumulation on terrain peaks, enhancing coverage on high points.
CoverageAdjusts the overall amount of snow applied to the terrain, increasing or decreasing the extent of dusting.
Slope CoverageModifies how much snow accumulates on slopes, allowing for more or less coverage on inclined surfaces.
FlowSimulates subtle downhill drift and redistribution of snow, mimicking natural snow movement due to gravity.
EffectsReduces snow coverage in sun-exposed or warmer areas, simulating natural melting patterns.
MeltReduces snow coverage in sun-exposed or warmer areas, simulating natural melting patterns.
GrittyAdds noise and texture variation to the snow, creating a more natural, patchy, and irregular appearance.
Include Existing SnowAllows the dusting effect to respect and blend with existing snow layers, ensuring seamless integration.
SeedRandomizes the snow pattern, enabling varied results or reproducibility by changing the seed value.
Artistic ControlProvides fine-tuning options for the overall look and style of the snow dusting, supporting creative or stylized results.
