Dose anyone know if there is any NODE BASED material editor for Vray? Kind of like Mental Mill, or how materials work in Maya?

I agree that NodeJoe is costly, but I find it a massive time saver. I wish it was less expensive, so I could buy more than one license, but it does work very well.

That rumor is going around since the release of max6, this on and the one about rewriting the core of max to make everything faster, they just pop up everytime there is a new version of max.

Zookeeper looks really nice. I wonder how long it will take ADSK to snap it up?
