Triplanar Mapper
This node maps a single image three times, along each of the major axes (just like cubic mapping) but blends between the three projections depending on the angle of the surface to hide the seams.
This can be used to quickly texture more organic or natural objects without requiring precise UV coordinates.
Controls
Background Colour / Blend Mode / Opacity
These are the standard compositing controls as provided by the native 2D mapping nodes as well.
Triplanar Blend
This controls how hard/soft the blend of the planar projections is as the normals point away from the major axes.
![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
0% Blend | 20% Blend | 50% Blend | 100% Blend |
We recommend a value between 5% and 20% for most uses.
