matte reflection support for all materials

[gimiky]

as i understand it, matte reflections only work for top level VrayMtls and will not render for other types (e.g. Multi/Sub-Object materials). support for all other basic types of materials (Multi/Sub, VrayBlendMtl, Vray2SidedMtl, VrayFastSSS2) would make this feature a lot more useful.

thanks,

Yes, it is on the "to do" list and will be implemented.

Best regards,

just curious-- where does this stand?

[vlado]

Still where it was - it got pushed down by other things on the "to do" list If you need it urgently, let me know and I'll see what can be done about it.

Best regards,

as much as i would like to say it's "urgent", i can't really... it's just that all the newer materials work so great that we have progressively used them more and more, so generating proper reflection mattes for things like fume or whathaveyou is no longer "out of the box".

Would like to add a +1 here.

We use a lot of Multi/-Sub in our studio environment and this feature would be a real timesaver.
Currently we have to split our Mulit/-Subs into reflecting materials and non-reflecting.

Any chance of bumping this up in the to-do list?

Thanks for your time!
