Photoshop: Improve fractal noise filters (render clouds, procedural noise)?

I totally understand your feelings about that. On the substance website they even advertise that as one of the features. I wish we would have access to at least a third of that noises in Photoshop ...

Adobe now owns a company which produces artificial texture and materials like no other. We've been waiting for them to allow us access since acquiring... 
This is linked to from within the CC desktop app under 3D & AR:

This is definitely one of my most wanted features. As a retoucher it is quite important to create natural looking textures from scratch. And improved noise filters would be a great help. And they would also help to incorporate variation like dirt, smudges etc. to existing photos. This is especially helpful when dealing with CG imagery which is usually to clean when it comes out of the renderer.

KPT! Oh man nostalgia. 

Here's a plugin to try:

KPT was decades ahead of its time, apparently...

It ́s absolutely dissappointing that there is no improvement to the Clouds filter after all those years! Not to mention that there is no texture generator at all.....

In case anyone wonders about the effect that Fractal Noise>Difference  applied.

i love this comment i think the same. photoshop its really sick versus After Effects

Hi Trevor,

Yeah I sure do and use that on most jobs. But the basic noise filter is very simplistic. I know there area few filters in filter gallery that can be combined to create something non-destructive but these are kludgy.

Look at Cinema 4D's noise shader interface below. Procedurally generated and non-destructive. Having something like that in PS would take it to the next level.

Cheers
