Having trouble with blender. I had just managed to make a material on the walls as pictured, iridescent and shiny. I have somehow messed with the nodes and now it has turned black and looks completely wrong. I will attatch pics of before and after and the nodes. Could anybody tell me which part I have tampered with to ruin the image? desperate to get the original material back as I have a deadline tomorrow.

$\begingroup$ it would be better if you can add your blend file or post pics of your material set up. $\endgroup$– icYou520Oct 30, 2018 at 22:31

Here is a much simpler node set up for you.
Essentially all you are seeing is the noise texture. You dont need all that other stuff.
Also the sockets have to plug into the same color (you can break this rule sometimes, but not in your case.)
You can use something other than a noise texture to have a different type of bump.
Or even better just use this set up since you want shine and bump.

$\begingroup$ No problem, please mark it as accepted so it helps others, also the bottom node set up is if you wanted a little bit of shininess on the walls. $\endgroup$– icYou520Oct 30, 2018 at 22:59

$\begingroup$ Sorry one more question before I accept it. How can I make it look more like bumpy shiny glass? I turned the roughness down to 0 of the glossy, and mode to sharp. Hasnt really done much. $\endgroup$ Oct 30, 2018 at 23:06

$\begingroup$ also I probably should have plugged that purple bump node into the purple layer weight node to be more correct, but it wont matter much. $\endgroup$– icYou520Oct 30, 2018 at 23:20
