Nodes

2D

2D nodes generate and affect objects in 2D space.

3D

3D nodes generate and affect objects in 3D space.

Cameras

Cameras define the point of view a scene is rendered from.

Cloning

Cloners generate instances of objects in a scene.

Colour

Colour Nodes generate colours and gradients.

Deformers

Deformers create, destroy, edit, and animate existing geometry.

Fields

Fields generate simulations of volumetric and fluid-like effects.

Generators

Generators create mathematical 2D patterns.

Interactive

Interactive nodes allow external inputs to be used in scenes.

Layers

Layer nodes allow effects and compositions to be used within an existing composition.

Lighting

Lighting nodes control how a scene is lit.

Logic

The Logic nodes are used to create a meta logic system within Notch.

Materials

Material nodes control how light interacts with the surfaces of objects.

Mocap

Mocap nodes animate rigged skeletons with motion capture data.

Modifiers

Modifier nodes modify the properties in other nodes.

Nodes

These nodes generally used to help with workflows and UX.

Particles

Particle nodes perform simulations of particle-like effects.

Physics

Physics nodes allow you to add Rigid Body Dynamics to objects.

Post-FX

Post FX nodes perform image processing on the node they are parented to.

Procedurals

Procedural nodes generate geometric and volumetric forms using signed distance fields.

Rendering

Rendering nodes process the lighting and shading effects from a scene, and show the result.

Scripting

Scripting nodes allow for project behaviour to be scripted using JavaScript.

Shading

Shading nodes generate material shaders for creating materials.

Sound

These nodes control sound input and output in Notch.

Text-FX

Text-FX nodes handle generating, modifying, and combining text strings.

Video

Video nodes modify, process, and combine videos.
