how to use vrmat node

[marcoz]

Hello ,in wich way i can use the vrmat node in blender?

[bdancer]

You could use vismat files (in XML format). Select filepath, then select desired material name with the menu.

[marcoz]

i don't understand the way to connect the node, the guide is unclear, don't refer any example

Here is a example:

Then we can't further edit this kind of material?

Yes, editing vrmat would be a nice option.

I have this problem with this node. Nothing appear in the Vray frame buffer and in the material editor previsualisation. Have I plug things well or somebody could help me please

What does it mean I click "File:" and assign a *.vrmat and then when I click the folder icon next to "Name:" and select the material, nothing happens? Is the material name supposed to fill in the area next to :Name:"? I render and my object is invisible because the material isn't working. I am not sure how this should work.

[The3DNut]

I am not sure why the Name Field isn't/wasn't filling in but I discovered that manually typing the name works.

I would like to know what the node setup would be so that I can do a triplanar projection of the VRmat on an object that has not been UV mapped.

I am experiencing the same issue as this, my resulting render is invisible where the material is applied. Did you find out why this is?

Never mind - i found out that the 'Material Name' needs to match the name of the material in the file. seems so obvious now...
