Layered Materials

[Brian3D]

Hey guys! Thanks again for the amazing work!

We've already purchased several copies of Vray 5 for the studio to begin the transition.

I'm working on transferring some client materials to 5 and couldn't figure out how to do so in the new blend material. Maybe you could help point me in the right direction?

I was using a texture map to drive the scratch material reveal on the edges. If you need me to I can provide the file to you.

Thanks!

I think I almost have it working, but I can't seem to get the Vray dirt bright enough. Is there a way I could get it cranked up to almost 100% white?

You could try the VrayCurvature map, which may work better, as there are wireframe artifacts with the dirt it looks like.
Use it as the mask in the mask map, with e.g. noise as the rough map.

Curvature didn't work, but I was able to build the entire material in layers within one Vray Material. Works great! Thanks a bunch!
