I haven't posted about this here yet, but my stone wall thing is still being worked on! 🧱 This is how it all started! Some info about this original prototype in thread 👇 #b3d #blender #geometrynodes - ThreadSky

Did sth similar in Substance Designer for the last game I worked on (SVG in Editor as input and then the rest handled by the graph). Cool to see it’s possible in Blender too!

This one! Initial mask approach is very similar to yours to get the irregularity of walls from natural rocks

Nice material! Yeah I find sinking time into procedural brick layouts never looks as good as just drawing/tracing them

I‘d say it depends on the type of pattern! tile sampler + distance + edge detect can lead to some very pleasing irregular patterns too. But for this type of material for sure

sounds like a very helpful tool

I've been kinda making my bricks *manually* but that's mostly to get the practice of extruding and such and beveling vertices and edges and such.

Basic approach for this version:
1. Create flat geometry from a mask
2. Apply "chipping" and surfacing to the flat bricks
3. (Decimate modifiers)
4. Expand and extrude bricks

As for generating the flat geometry from a mask:
1. Delete faces of a high res grid based on a mask
2. Convert boundaries to curves
3. Resample curves (you can smooth here too)
4. Scatter points and instance curve points
5. Fill curves once joined with points

Woahh this is so cool!

Thanks! I'll eventually release some version of this but I'm always happy to help implement similar things in the meantime 😊
