vrayscene overide

[gandhics]

I'm building vrayscene override snippet with script.
Is there any documentation for the requirement or limitation or anything?

visible property is working.
But, primary_visibility is not working

and material....

The documentation sounds like I could have the override material in material editor slots. But, it seems I have to apply on the vrayscene object as a sub material of multi/sub material.

Then, I can;t use multi/sub material as a override material?

Just tested this out and it seems to work:

Node <Sphere001*>{
primary_visibility=0;
}

Make sure there is a semicolon at the end of the parameter value.

What the documentation is trying to say is that in order to override a .vrscene's shader (with one from the editor), the shader in question should be applied to the VRayScene node prior to writing the code in the snippet. Multi/Sub-Object materials work fine as well.

ok primary_visibility is working in vray 5.

I was testing on VRay next 3.3(?)
It didn't work there.

Multi/Sub is still not working.
I made a "newmtl" multi/sub-material and applied to vrayscene object.
WHen I override with the material, the assigned object takes the id 1 material.

Seems to work as expected on my end. Have you set the material ids prior to exporting the .vrscene? Check this example.
