Help Topic: VRayBlendMtl - How to properly blend specular layers.

[stevejjd]

Thank you very much for this.

I think I will use this method until Chaos Group fixes this huge problem with a proper VrayCoatMtl


It would be good to hear from Chaos Group - freed-back regarding the coat material. May I please ask if someone from Chaos Group can comment on the subject of a coat material? it will help release my anxiety to know that a solution is on its way.

Thank you all for being so helpful

I did some research and found that the falloff map is from the scanline render days when they used a falloff in the reflection slot. That's like, 15 year old tech....

I hope Vray can make their own coat material soon.

Well, the actual math for it is about 200 years old, it's just not implemented correctly in the Falloff map.
