Shader Node for rounding corners

I just saw the Glenn Frey presentation for IBC2018. In it he shows that a shader can be created with the new node system that will create a rounded or “beveled” look that is rendertime rather than using the bevel deformer. Renderers like Redshift have a ‘round edges’ node that can be used. However, he never showed how to create the shader or which nodes to use.

Can you explain how this is done?  I am only using the R20 demo and so I am not sure if the node is missing or not.

Hi vytas_rauckis,

I have send Glenn a message if he has a link to a set up. I will update this post in the moment I get something.

All the best

Glenn Frey does not only do great presentations, he is also very helpful!

He just wrote me back, here is the link he has provided:

The Mix needs to be set to Vector.
