i dunno about the normal vraymat translucency, but im using yours right now egz (the wax one), and if i lower the thickness under 1.0 to say .9 or even .5, it acts as tho i'm increasing it instead of lowering it.

max4.2 allways says "Assertion Failed" "In file:`..\..\maxsdk\include\tab.h"

does anyone have an idea whats wrong?

Is there a way to install these scripts on our DR Render machines? Obviously I can't drag the mzp file onto the viewport since these are just render slaves. Any suggestions?

Just copy the egzMaterials folder from /scripts/startup/ on your workstation to the same location on the DR systems.

Thanks!! I will test that out now!!

[wulfie]

So, no new progress on these nice materials?

[egz]

Sorry, haven't had time lately. I'll try to make an update before christmas though.

[wulfie]

Hmmm...guess no update to the beta materials before x-mas..
would have made a very nice x-mas present..

It seems I can't get the wax material to work, it always comes out black or very dark gray in th rendering, nomatter what settings I use. What could be the problem?

thanks!

and still no updates to these lovely materials..

wulfie: You have to understand that this is something I do in my spare time and then give away for free. Lately I just haven't had much time to work on it because of commercial projects (which always have to get 1st priority over other stuff), so you will unfortunately have to wait a little longer for an update. I appreciate the eagerness though

navyseal & flipside: this might be units related. Try changing to 1 unit = 1 cm or 1 mm and see if that changes things.

as the old saying goes, 'patience is a virtue'...so I shall be patient all mighty one..
they are some DARN good mats though!!

[TOBTHREEDEE]

very very great.

by changing the color for the reflection nothing happens, is that right?
