How to have missing and half tiles?

allengingrich

Making a tiled surface is easy enough, but can someone give insight into how I can make it look like a couple tiles fell off or cracked in half? I've been experimenting for days with little luck.

Thanks!

Generate random, solid values per tile. Using that + histogram shift/scan nodes you can make black and white masks that separate your tiles:


Now just use those as masks for which tiles to do what effects to.
