# Sample Texture 3D node
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Sample Texture 3D node samples a **Texture 3D** asset and returns a **Vector 4** color value. You can specify the **UV** coordinates for a texture sample and use a [Sampler State node](Sampler-State-Node.md) to define a specific Sampler State.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For more information about Texture 3D assets, see [3D textures](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-Texture3D.html) in the Unity User manual.

## Example graph usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the following example, the Sample Texture 3D node samples a 3D fractal noise Texture asset. It takes its input UV coordinates from a Position node, set to **Object** Space.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Sample Texture 3D node needs a Vector 3 for its UV coordinate input, rather than a Vector 2, because the Texture asset exists as a volume in imaginary 3D space. The node uses the default Sampler State because there is no Sampler State node connected.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This specific Texture 3D asset stores its Texture data in the Alpha channel, so the Sample Texture 3D node uses its **A** output port as an input for the Base Color Block node in the **Fragment** Context of the Master Stack:
