      Okay Pete. . .you just need to stop now. I don't know if I can handle any more of this . . . You've crossed the line from being inspiring to just downright irritating. πŸ’š

      **I feel so inferior right now.

      p.s. Thanks for the mat pack. I'm sure NOW my renders will be amazing.**

      If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

        Thanks Pete. The bump in that mat.pack is it one of the defaults with Thea?

        Sorry for the OT guys but the more you play with Thea the more you want to know.

          Yes, it's one of the procedural noises (Perlin) notice I scaled it down to 100.00

          If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

              So you just dragged and dropped the Perlin procedural after scaling into the bump slot?

              That whole Procedural stuff is still Greek to me I'm afraid. Same for Sigma in the Structure tab. Anyway, thanks for the info πŸ‘

                I dropped in the 'More Settings' menu, scaled it and dragged to bump slot.

                    I can see segments in the tape - other than that it's completely convincing. Looks great.

                        Hard to tell "fact" from "fiction" with your super work, Pete.
                        Thank you for the mat.

                          Looks great, but I wish the seam around the case was rendered as well...

                                  Just looking at the image. . .I just wanna pop it into my '93 Subaru GL Tape Deck right now and listen to My pirated copy of "The Stranger" by Billy Joel.

                                  How are you with 8-track?

                                  If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

                                      looks perfectly realistic - remembers me of the time when i was recording songs from radio/tv and made mixtapes i carried around in my car for months πŸ˜‰

                                      great work, as always!

                                          Perfect 😲 , maybe too much so. To me the only tell of these renders are lack of minute imperfections such as dust, fiber pieces, smears, fingerprints, or dents ... Those tapes would sometimes crinkle similar to the seen segments even.
