Photoshop noise filters

[protonpix]

I just want your opinion on Photoshop Elements noise filters that can be used for photorealistic textures creation with minimal effort, such as perlin noise, voronoi, simplex noise, worley etc. that can be blended together to make stunning realistic looking textures.

I am amazed by Substance Designer and similar material authoring software, but it needs time to master, especially with the role of functions implementation to expand the noise usability.

As a note please let me give you details, Photoshop Elements is limited in filters that can be used for creation of textures, it's a photo editor we know... but, if we have filters that can produce a variety of noises that can be modified, combined or blended together as we say to create more realistic textures such as tree bark, carpet, knitted clothing, flower or leaf texture etc.
I know there are people that will say Substance Designer is enough for producing textures, but this software is simply not for everyone, that is why I vote for such Photoshop Elements filters, to make artists feel like artists, and not like coders or mathematicians.

P.S. Filters in Photoshop Elements do not have other names except to be called such, but in reality these would not be called filters, but procedural texture generators.

Welcome protonpix. 
Sorry, no help from me on your question. I use the PSE built-in textures on rare occasions.  
Hope someone can offer assistance.

PS Elements does not have the same tools as the full PS but there are some work arounds.

1- Downloading free stock textures or photos that can be transformed into textures.
2- Some tutorials in the full PS also work in PS Elements. eg generating a night sky with stars and clouds. Generating curtains.
3- Download free photoshop brushes that usually work in PSE that can be used to create designs.
4- There are probably some free third party texture generators that can be used to create a design or texture that can later be imported into PS Elements. (A simple one I have in Elements is "Abstract Curves" although it generates designs rather than textures)
5- You can use displacement maps in PS Elements to create some interesting designs and patterns. There are many tutorials on YouTube.
6- Check out the goodies page on the Forum for some ideas: photoshopelementsandmore.com/board/41/goodies

Kind regards
