Procedural material + hair simulation
This fabric material combines the versatility of procedural materials with hair simulation.
What is a procedural fabric material with hair simulation? Simply put, it is a type of digital material that is mathematically generated to simulate the appearance and texture of fabric, while incorporating hair fibers that mimic the texture and softness of natural hair.
Procedural materials cost more to render than traditional materials based on predefined texture images, but they have certain advantages to take into account:
- Scalability: Procedural materials are scalable, which means that they can be easily adapted to different resolutions and object sizes without losing quality.
- Customization: Due to their algorithmic nature, procedural materials are highly customizable. Users can adjust parameters such as color, gloss, roughness and patterns to achieve the desired look and feel.
- Storage Efficiency: Unlike traditional textures, which can take up a lot of hard disk space, procedural materials are generally more efficient in terms of storage, since only the parameters and algorithms needed to generate the material are stored.
- Flexibility: Procedural materials offer greater flexibility in the design process by allowing artists to experiment with a wide variety of visual effects and styles without having to rely on predefined textures.
