Maya File-pre-filter, File - Filter offset - how to replicate in Arnold ?

[Stephen.Blair · Accepted solution]

You want to blur the texture? I suppose you could use mipmap bias to get a lower resolution (blurry) version of the texture.

Ah yes that will do just fine, instead of Maya Pre-Blur. Not as much control but, will do the job in this case. Thanks for the reply, much appreciated.

It would be cool to have a "blur" node wouldn't it?

[zenop]

Agreed, especially for procedurals it'd be cool

For me it was for fake depth of field.. but was something I used occasionally in maya
