Output map in reflect

[evgen]

Hello. Since sp2 version, output map in reflection channel does not affect at level of reflection more at 1.0
Ex. I need to increase reflections without increasing IOR
early, I could just put a output map to reflection and set RGB value to any value( more than 1) and reflection became brighter, now I can't do that.
Please, return this nice thing!

Maybe I can do now another way? If so, let me know
Thanks

Same thing at diffuse map.
It seems, VrayMtl just clamp maps which has brightness value more than 1.0

There is a hidden option for VRayMtl that you can set from MaxScript, it's called "option_clampTextures" and its default value is "true". If you set it to "false", you will be able to set the reflection color to more than pure white. However I don't recommend this, as the resulting material is not physically accurate and various issues can appear.

Best regards,
Vlado

O, thank you!
It's could be nice to see this flag somewhere inside advanced option in shader or global vray setup.
thx
