 The Texture Repetition nodes takes an images that is no tileable and randomly splats it onto a surface using a projection.

 This works best for images that are more organic and irregular in nature.

+An integer number to initialize the random number generator used for the noise. This allows for different distributions even if all other settings stay the same.

+These correspond to the same controls on the native image nodes.
+==== Triplanar Mapping ====
+{{ :tools:pasted:20210208-121923.png}}
+Triplanar mapping is a type of cubic texture mapping with edge blending.
+Please have a look at the [[tools:triplanar_mapper|]] for a more elaborate explanation.
+=== Use Triplanar Mapping ===
+Activating this toggle enables Triplanar mapping, overring the Projection input and the use of the default UVs. It also enables the controls below used to control the mapping.
+Controls not described here work identically to those used by the native 2D Image node.
+=== Triplanar Blend ===
+This controls how hard/soft the blend of the planar projections is as the normals point away from the major axes.
+|{{:tools:triplanar_blending0.png?nolink&200|0% Blend}}|{{:tools:triplanar_blending20.png?nolink&200|20% Blend}}|{{:tools:triplanar_blending50.png?nolink&200|20% Blend}}| {{:tools:triplanar_blending100.png?nolink%200|100% Blend}}|
+|0% Blend|20% Blend|50% Blend|100% Blend|
+We recommend a value between 5% and 20% for most uses.
+=== World/Deformed Coords ===
+This controls if the blending is computed in local or in world space. Please note, this only affects how the blending is computed, not how the images are projected.
+=== UV Tiles ===
+== Flip Reverse Side ==
+If this option is enabled, the projected image will be flipped on the U texture coordinate axis on the negative side of the projection. This can be used to make images containing text be readable on the back side of a mesh as well.
+=== UV Offset ===
+Adds an offset to the computed UV coordinates. This can even be used to animate a texture across a surface.

 === Projection ===
+This defines the Projection to use. If nothing is connected, the default UV is used.
+This input is ignored if triplanar mapping is used.

+Outputs the alpha of the repeated image.

+Outputs a bump map computed from the luminance of the repeated image.
