    Weird Lines in display port and render

    Question Materials and Textures
    dsmarra

    Hello,

    I've come across a shading issue, I can't seem to figure out.  In Blender 4.0.2 I keep getting these lines after I shade smooth. I've attached screen shots and shader nodes.  Thank you in advance for your help.

      Hi ddsmarra ,

      (You need to press the + in the middle of the Image, when you want to post it here.)

      What you have is basically a Musgrave plugged into the Displacement (and that is set to Only Bump):

      That Musgrave Texture is causing the weird Shading.

      Where did you get that? I can't see any screenshots or shader node. And the problem was the lines were just a bump coming through from the shaders?

      Hi Omar, the screenshots were uploaded, but not added to the post... (we IA's can still access them...see Discord message).

      And yes, the lines were just some sort of bump from that Musgrave Texture.

      Thank you.  I changed the shader node to include a bump node feeding into the normal socket of a Principle BDSF for desired texture.  Issue resolved.
