Advanced Fabric Shader Bundle for Vray5 - 3DRnB

[sirio76]

Hi everyone
of course the metal shader bundle was just the beginning (https://forums.chaosgroup.com/forum/...or-vray5-3drnb), we plan to release all shader categories within 2021 and the next one will be fabrics (it will be available for both Cinema4D and Max).
In 2020 we have released a fabric shader bundle for Corona so all the research/assets are already made, now we just need to rebuild the materials using Vray. This is not a simple conversion from the Corona shaders, in doing this we are taking advantage of new features like the Vray Sheen layer that proved to be amazing for these kind of materials, so our goal is to get even better quality (this is the Corona bundle for reference: https://www.3dtutorialandbeyond.com/...abric-shaders/ ).
We have already made 100 out of 600 shaders so you can expect the bundle to be ready in about a month, in the mean while I'll post some images of the WIP here on the forum
Let's start with a couple of simple fabrics, a cotton and a linen:

This makes me very happy. Can't wait for the fabric shaders to be ready..
Looks amazing!

Thanks
Here is another one using displacement:

I've already done 160 out of 611 fabrics, that's the latest one
Most shaders will come with chromatic variations (up to 24) so you will always find the right color match to use in your scenes!

Padding Hexagon, I've also made an animated gif to show a few components

A slightly crumpled silk, including a real reference.
I still need to fix some detail:

They look great! will you include some curtain shaders as well with alpha and translucency maps?

[sirio76]

Yes of course, we have plenty of curtain shaders planned, here are just a couple examples made for the Corona bundle but we have many more!

Hi Sirio,
any news on the progress of this bundle?
Looking really forward to it

[sirio76]

Hi, we are still working on the fabrics bundle, we have already have many of them ready so if you need a specific fabric urgently let me know and I can give it you

[floris_drupsteen]

Hi Sirio,
that is a great offer. Thank you so much.
I'm not sure if you have it; but corduroy velvet is number 1 on my list.
Followed by the silk.

[sirio76]

Silk is done I’ll look into the corduroy velvet in the spare time, it was not planned for this bundle but I can add it to the list!

Hi Sirio,
any update regarding the fabric bundle release? looking forward for it! are the shaders going to be available for v-ray 5 and v-ray 3.7 as well? cause the unreliability and lack of some features of v.5 for now, I'm moving back to v.3.7 so I was wondering ...

Hi, to complete the fabric shader bundle I was waiting for the 5.1 release since this update introduce a new thin walled SSS mode suitable for some fabrics.
Now that 5.1 have been publicly released I can get back to work and Ill do my best to complete the bundle ASAP
Unfortunately the new bundle will be available only for version 5, for older version we are still offering the old fabric bundle but is a totally different product.
