Another Node Material Editor question please.

I have enabled “Use parallax occlusion” on the PerturbNormalBlock, added a couple of inputs (G & B of the bump texture) to parallaxScale & parallaxHeight, but nothing changes. What am I doing wrong?

[https://nme.babylonjs.com/#EPY8BV#577](https://nme.babylonjs.com/#EPY8BV#577) The bump texture gets removed when I save as unique URL.

Thank you.

Your material is quite complicated and is missing a lot of textures.

So, here are two examples of how parallax can be used in a node material:

- Standard material: [Babylon.js Node Material Editor](https://nme.babylonjs.com/#KIUSWC)
- PBR material: [https://playground.babylonjs.com/#NSG82E#8](https://playground.babylonjs.com/#NSG82E#8) (forum thread: [Is there the way to use Parallax Mapping for node material? - #37 by Evgeni\_Popov](https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/is-there-the-way-to-use-parallax-mapping-for-node-material/16903/37))
