OneMinus Node | 5-Minute Materials [UE4]

Hey Prismaticrew! In today's extremely simple episode of 5-Minute Materials we're looking at the OneMinus Node! This node is most commonly used to invert the values of a texture, mainly to use the Dark parts of a Mask instead of the White parts.

I love this channel. I wish I could find a channel as instructive on regular blueprint commands as this channel has been on shaders. Not just explanation, but the mind expansion that happens here, where I get suggested uses that I might not have considered.

[@Rapol95]

Damn i really love your videos, im learning so much shader stuff with them. Thank you for taking the time to make this awesome content.
Fell in love with the fresnel one.

[@PrismaticaDev]

Really glad to hear it Rapol :) I'm hoping to build up a huge database of videos so I can raise an army of UE4 Material nerds.

[@johnmannp7158]

Love the osrs soundtrack in the background! :)

[@PrismaticaDev]

So do I! Haha I need to find a source for the -entire- soundtrack as I only have 2 hours of the absolute classics.

[@Fokkusu]

Really nice tutorial, oneminus is one of those that by themselves are not that cool but combined with other stuff you get really crazy stuff, ty for demystifying it ^^

[@PrismaticaDev]

Any time! It’s also a great node when combining textures in specific ways - photoshop blend modes do this a lot

[@wortnes]

Nice one!

[@koyukupa]

Thank you so much. Very valuable for me

[@wortnes]

Great! 💗

[@PrismaticaDev]

You are :) :) :)

[@Daniel-be6cj]

If you just want to raise the black part of a texture there's also a node just called "raiseblacklevelsbypercentage". You just pulp in a value to raise it by and it does waht it says

[@PhilipPetrunak]

It inverts it. Got it.

[@PrismaticaDev]

Only if it's within a 0-1 range, yep!

[@bersK00]

Noice.

[@PrismaticaDev]

Cheers moite!

1-x I was looking for :DDDDD 0:23 second just watched but I pressed LIKE :DDD

[@IIIQZAIII]

and subscribe...... coz I like SHORT videos with NO introduction

[@IIIQZAIII]

INVERT

[@YellowChecker]

As long as your texture is linear. In SRGB, things get a bit more complicated

[@marcusunivers]

Hmm. But what is the difference between using the OneMinus Node and Multiply by -1? 😅

[@PrismaticaDev]

Multiplying by -1 will invert the number around 0, so 1 becomes -1 and 0 remains 0. Oneminus makes 0 become 1, and 1 become 0.

[@marcusunivers]

@@PrismaticaDev Ah nice. Thanks for the clarification, now I understand it 👍

[@saintracer2083]

Hii can you make a tutorial on a football field grass one with texture and one with grass model :).

I'm sorry, but with my "like" the likes count becames 666. We need more likes to prevent something bad happens!
