## Veins

### Scale

Parameter ID: `INPORT_MM_FUHHRIT1IB8HBGNPHFB` · Range: [XYZ %]

These values can be used to scale the structures individually along the three spatial axes.

### Octaves

Parameter ID: `INPORT_CS46EIJAMDWMC9A33WP2EH` · Range: [2.00..20.00]

This value defines the precision of the noise calculation. The larger the value, the more variation and the more detail that will result.

### Large Turbulence

Parameter ID: `INPORT_HAG_OWL6LV3OUDKP3ZP2WH` · Range: [0..100%]

### Small Turbulence

Parameter ID: `INPORT_BVZLLBBTPL9K9TA1ZLO2FE` · Range: [0..100%]

These values can be used to create a pattern. The Large Turbulence value is Blistered Turbulence and is superimposed by the FBM type Small Turbulence.

### Veins Gaps

Parameter ID: `INPORT_TBTTKM5RPNOQNTDAOUVVPH` · Range: [0..100%]

An additional noise structure can be used to hide regions of the grain and add variance to the generated pattern.

### Seed

Parameter ID: `INPORT_LU6KRDVZNRVRIH_2ZQEFGA` · Range: [-∞..+∞]

All random calculations of noise patterns and turbulences used by the node are based on this value. Modifying this value will result in a recalculation of the grain.

### Contrast

Parameter ID: `INPORT_MI3SGD_6EX5STHET0AWTVA` · Range: [-100..100%]

This setting can be used to increase the difference in brightness between the dark and light regions of the grain.
