Vector - Vector

Category: Processing > Math

Shader Family: Texture

Output: Vector

Performs a mathematical operation on a vector input resulting in a vector parameter.

Name	The shader's name. Enter any name you like, or leave the default.
Operation	Defines the mathematical operation: Negate (Vector Input 1) Vector Input 1 + Vector Input 2 Vector Input 1 - Vector Input 2 Vector Input 1 x Vector Input 2 This operation is a cross product (VectorInput1 = (a,b,c), VectorInput2 = (x,y,z), therefore VectorInput1 x VectorInput2 = (bz - cy, az - cx, ay - bx) ) Normalize (Vector Input 1) Minimum(Vector Input 1, Vector Input 2) Maximum (Vector Input 1, Vector Input 2) Vector Input 1 x Scalar Input 1 Vector Input 1 / Scalar Input 1
Scalar Input 1	Defines the Scalar input.
Vector Input 1	Defines the vector (1) used in all of the mathematical operations.
Vector Input 2	Defines the vector input 2.

Render Tree Usage

Connect one or two vector-output shaders (bumpmap generator, Texture Space Controllers) and a scalar-output shader (texture generators, other math shaders) to the Input parameters. Once an operation is selected, the output can be used on any shader that accepts a vector input.
