The FX-Map node, which enables the creation of procedural images, is not only incredibly powerful but also one of the most complex nodes in Substance 3D Designer. If you haven't delved into the FX-Map yet but want to, Andrei Zelenco, renowned for his extensive work with Substance 3D Designer, has created a free YouTube tutorial series to guide you through it.
Beginning with the basics of the FX-Map node and simple examples to grasp its functionality, Andrei will progressively introduce more advanced techniques across the four videos. These include math expressions, nested loops, and branching, all aimed at generating fully procedural drawings using vector expressions, variables, and iterated functions.
