amount for diffuse/reflection/refraction in VrayMaterial

[ronald_a]

Can we get amounts for diffuse/reflection/refraction like in maya?

Thanks

Hello ronald_a , this is still not implemented, but there is an easy way to do it with V-Ray Color Operations.

Thanks chakarov, I am aware of this solution and this is how I do it right now. It's just when you have to do that on every shader for diffuse/reflection/refraction it just clutters your shader network a lot (especially if you just want a color and amount without any textures). So if the devs find time to bring it in it would be really nice.

I like this idea. Other renders for Houdini, like RS, Renderman,Mantra have same approach, using multiplier/gain for components.I often use it myself to debug/proof shader in IPR...
