Triplanar Displace stands out in the Superhive library for tackling the stretching that single-direction displacement leaves on vertical faces and overhangs, using a three-axis projection built entirely on Geometry Nodes.
Triplanar Displace is a Blender add-on for adding surface detail to meshes without UV unwrapping. It projects your textures from all three axes and blends them, so displacement stays clean across faces at any angle. You add it with one click from the N-panel, then adjust strength, tiling, and orientation per axis directly in the modifier stack, with real-time viewport feedback.
The add-on is built on pure Geometry Nodes for fast, non-destructive results that fit into an existing workflow. Unlike a single-direction projection, which can leave vertical faces and overhangs looking stretched and flat, Triplanar Displace projects from all three axes and blends them automatically, so every face receives displacement regardless of its angle.
Created by Anas, an environment artist from Morocco focused on procedural workflows between Blender and game engines, the tool was built for production-ready displacement without stretching, manual sculpting, or UVs. The package includes documentation, support from HRB store, and product updates.
Triplanar Displace is best for blender environment artists building terrain, rock, cliffs, and organic surfaces with procedural, game-ready workflows.
Triplanar Displace is completely free to download and use.
Triplanar Displace supports Blender versions 4.2 through 5.2 and is listed as Blender Extension compatible. It is distributed as an add-on and is built on pure Geometry Nodes, making it non-destructive within the modifier stack. If you are running a version in that range, the add-on can be added with one click from the N-panel. For versions outside that window, check the developer's page for the latest compatibility details before purchasing.
Triplanar Displace does not require UV unwrapping. It projects your textures from all three axes and blends them automatically, so displacement stays clean on faces at any angle. This differs from a single-direction projection, which can leave vertical faces and overhangs looking stretched and flat. Once added from the N-panel, you can fine-tune strength, tiling, and orientation per axis, with results updating in the viewport in real time.
Triplanar Displace lists compatibility with a broad set of render engines, including Arnold, Cycles, Eevee, Freestyle, Luxrender, Mental-Ray, Octane, Vray, and Yafaray. Because it is built on pure Geometry Nodes and works non-destructively within the modifier stack, it fits into an existing Blender workflow. For engine-specific setup or the most current details, refer to the developer's page and the included documentation.
Triplanar Displace is listed as free in this catalog, and it is released under the GPL license. The developer's package also includes documentation, support from HRB store, and product updates.
