Randomize Material Tiling

Hello,

Having the ability to either randomise or shift material tiles to avoid the classic tiling when applying a material to a surface (i.e. bricks to a wall) would greatly increase workflow fluidity. It would reduce the requirements for spending time photoshopping or adjusting existing materials by allowing for the randomisation to occur within the material library.

The user could define the offset so that the 'tiles' are able to be controlled so they are able to align to look realistic, rather than completely random,

Thanks!

    The issue with this proposal is, that textures are usually designed in a way to reduce obvious repetition patterns if simply placed next to each other. If you would move them around freely, the tiling would be even more obvious.

    I could imagine that the proper solution to your request would rather be procedural textures. Am I right with this?
