Normal Strength Node

Access: Nodes > Filter > Normal Strength

The Normal Strength node adjusts the strength of the input tangent space normal map by blending it towards or away from a flat normal. The higher the strength, the further the input normal points from a flat surface and the more extreme the resulting normal map becomes.

This node can be used to make adjustments to a normal map without having to make any changes to the map itself. It is a good way of iterating and comparing various strengths.

Normal Strength with a value of 0.5.	Normal Strength with a value of 6.
