The geometry nodes hexmap generator (based on @stavridisc's work) is now available for free via gumroad gum.co/gnhexmap #b3d #blender #geometrynodes

here's a couple of stills, currently there's 5 example color palettes but they can be extended/edited in the materials. This uses a simple nodegroup (8 slots) to switch between color ramps but more can be added with easily

with ease* 🫠

you can create a similar setup with @erindale_xyz 's hexagon world tutorial

though the difference here is that this uses dual mesh / extrude for the baes grid which greatly simplifies the creation process / nodes setup

Definitely still a lot of features I wanted to add to for this generator but I will be calling it "done" for now as I have been dragging it for way too long, aka at this state I guess I might as well call it a demo :D

I will still be updating this but probably not anytime soon

do note that you will need to use Blender 3.2+ for this

It's not shown in the clip, but the modifiers stack does include the bevel which you can adjust to round off the tiles
