Originally L3 Texture was designed as an extension to L3 Deformer toolset. For now only this beta software provides 15 new nodes to build advanced texture networks in Maya. The plugin contains procedural noise textures, regular pattern generators, coordinate displacement nodes and additional utilities. All texture features are fully animatable and mapable. Combination of procedural textures results in a huge amount of pattern.
Examples include regular cell pattern, irregular structures like marble, wood or rock surface, irregular or regular wave pattern and many more. Lightstorm3D promises more information soon.
