Creating Your First Procedural System
The Node Graph is the core of Infinity Creator, allowing you to visually design and modify procedural systems by connecting nodes.
Step 1: Opening the Node Graph
The Node Graph should be visible in the default setup under the 3D Scene.
- Go to View > Node Graph or click the Node Graph Panel in the workspace.
- You'll see a blank canvas where you can add and connect nodes.
Step 2: Adding Nodes from the Toolbox
- Open the Toolbox Panel (left sidebar).
- Expand a category like Noise, Math, or Geology.
- Drag & drop a node into the Node Graph Canvas.
- Repeat to add multiple nodes.
Step 3: Connecting Nodes
- Click on the output port of one node.
- Drag the connection line to the input port of another node.
- Repeat this process to build a procedural flow.
Example Workflow:
- Create Mesh → Noise Deform → Create RenderObject
Step 4: Adjusting Node Properties
- Click on a node to select it.
- The Inspector View (right sidebar) will show the node's properties.
- Modify values like scale, intensity, frequency, etc.
- Press Enter or click outside the field to apply changes.
Step 5: Running & Previewing the Graph
- Click the Run System to execute the selected system in the node graph. Click Run Core to execute all systems.
- View the result in the 3D Scene View.
- Adjust nodes and press Run System to see updates.
Step 6: Saving Your Project
- Click File > Save Project.
- Choose a save location.
- You can reload projects later via File > Open Project.
