Making a procedural zipper shader
Hans Chiu shared a stream about making a procedural animated zipper material.
Nodevember
Nodevember is a monthly challenge you invited to make procedural objects for Blender every day. It can be a material, a shader, an object, anything, if only it would be procedural. “If you can call it nodes, you can call it Nodevember!”

Procedural gradients
Except for the “Gradient Texture” node, we can obtain a gradient factor by using some simple equations. Look for the mathematics with a spherical gradient sample.
- Uniform gradient
Can be created based on a downward-facing cone equation.
Procedural stylized eyes
Pack with nine procedural stylized eyeballs materials.

Materials are ready to render with Blender “Cycles” and “Eevee” render engines right away.
Texture pixelization
The simplest way to pixelate texture, procedural or not – get the color from the single pixel and fill the region with required width and height (resolution) with this color.
Here is the gradient texture with red – green – blue colors:
To pixelate it with the first step of resolution we can make some vectors manipulations.

Color mask by scene materials
To quickly create a color mask by materials, assigned to the scene objects, for post-processing
you can use the following script:

OpenGl – DirectX norma map converter node group in Blender
Normal maps are usually saved in one of the two most common formats: OpenGL or DirectX. Blender uses OpenGL specification. Trying to use normal maps saved in another format will result in the wrong visual effect. To convert normal maps to the desired format the “OpenGL – DirectX Normal Map Converter” node group from the BIS material library can be used.
The samples of use:
