Bad gradients, creating stepping in every texture

[brandont70722206]

Hello, 

I havent had this problem in the past, but all my textures are having super harsh gradients. Making this program literally unusable. I will have pictures of a very simple setup. 

This picture is the graph, creating a very simple rock shape

This is showing the AO to kinda depict what is going on 

This is being cased by the base shape having harsh stepping. I have tried applying blurs and everything and it doesnt work 

Thank you for all the help, i really need to fix this soon.

Look at your slope blur. It is using 8 bits/channel which  is not enough for smooth heightmaps. It is not inheriting the 16 bits from the previous nodes.

There is a bug affecting inheritance in the current version which Adobe have confirmed they will be fixing in a coming release. In the meantime, as a workaround, you can go to Edit - Preferences -Graph and enable In Context Editing.

Version 12.2.1 has now been released and includes a fix for the issue where parameters such as bit depth were not being inherited correctly

Thank you! I'll try the process out without modifying  the graphs bits.
