rbfNode "radial basis function" : Maya/Arnold/C++

Here is two rbf plugs.

For Arnold:

rbf Node Arnold c++ from Silvestre Julien on Vimeo.

After seeing the great rbfSolver video from Hans Godard, i decided to create my own implementation in c++. I choose to use c++ in a way to translate it for Arnold.
Those node can be used in multiple situation (few exemple in the video) :
Node features:
- rbf type : linear, cubic, quintic, multiquadric, multiquadric inverse and gaussian
- distance controle
- ramp distance ...

Tested on arnold/maya 2013 to 2016 win and linux.

flakes procedural texture shader : Arnold/C++

Here a flakes procedural texture shader that can be usefull to create flake on different type of shader (snow, carpaint or sparkles effect). This shader give the possiblity to create a various number of flakes layer with different param.

Below few exemple:
