vray colour map, texture slot, kelvin temperature

[jenya.andersson]

Hi,
It would be great to have a kelvin temperature in the Vray colour map.
As went creating light mtl objects. I want to match the colour Kelvin temperature of my area lights.

Thanks

That would be useful, but as a work-around I just select the light then go to the lightmtl, use the colour picker and place it over the colour temperature slot of the light. Works perfectly every time.

what version are you on?

you can use a vraycolour node in vray 3.2 to do this.

oh great didnt know you can do that, will try thanks .
Im on vray 3.20.2.

Kinda wish there was a tint control next to the Kelvin temperature for lights like this too:


As especially re-creating fluorescent tube lighting has a slight green tint.
