Height Blend

Utilities

Blends two height maps and outputs the height and foreground coverage mask.

Select a node to adjust its parameters. Double-click a node to inspect.

Inputs

foreground : Foreground height map. Uses the red channel as height.
background : Background height map. Balanced Height can lower its range as Height Offset rises above 0.5.
opacity_map (optional) : Optional mask applied to the height ranges before comparison. Black sets Top Height to zero and restores the original bottom range; white applies the full remapping.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Range	Description
`height_offset` Height Offset	float	0.5	0 to 1	Remaps the height ranges. 0.5 leaves both ranges unchanged; lower values compress Top Height, while higher values favor it according to Mode.
`contrast` Contrast	float	0.9	0 to 1	Sharpens the linear height mask. Top gets full coverage wherever it is at least as high as Bottom; lower Top heights fade across a difference of 1 minus Contrast.
`mode` Mode	enum	balanced		How Height Offset remaps the two height ranges. `balanced` : Below offset 0.5, compress the top range toward zero. Above 0.5, compress the bottom range toward zero. `bottom_priority` : Keep the bottom range unchanged. Above offset 0.5, raise the minimum top height toward one.
`opacity` Opacity	float	1	0 to 1	Multiplies the output height mask. 0 returns the remapped bottom height and a black mask.

Outputs

height (default format: r32float)
mask (default format: r32float)
