[HELP] Curve Node substitute/ work around for Substance Designer 5.6.2

MMattice

Hi everyone!

As the title of the post suggests, I am looking for a substitue for the curve node in Substance Designer 5.6.2 (Which is the version that I am currently using). 

I am trying to follow along with Allegorithmic's new "Aged Wood Planks" tutorial, and to create the nails, they use the "Curve" node which I cannot find. Ill include the video in this post, and it should start at the time he begins to use the curve node.

I am a serious noob when it comes to Designer, and I am hoping that there is a work around for this issues, because i am really enjoying these tutorials and would love to finish!

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know! 

Thanks!

You can use gradient map instead

For  a very simple curve  a histogram scan can do the job too

Thanks! I'll give that a try

I forget if the Bevel node is in 5.6, but if it is then you can use that. As has been said, a gradient map will work as well

Thanks for the suggestion, as well as the image example! The Bevel node is available in 5.6, so I will try that in the future.
