sss id in shader

[LeoYfver]

Is there a possibitlity to get the option to assign a sss id in the shader? like with the renderstats node?

SSS is not a shader property, but the object property, so you could only set it with object properties (or via "vray_sssID" attribute for packed).

ok, thanks for the info!

thought maybe it was missing from the vray material wrapper because the other properties where there.

In Houdini it is located here.

yes I know. just hoped that it would be possible on the vray mtl wrapper because the SSS surface id existed under the matte properties tab in maya(i understand its object properties).

If its not possible to enable the sss id from the shader i understand. Thanks for checking into it!

This is only UI difference - at the end SSS ID is set on the Node plugin not shader plugin.

ok, I understand. Thanks!
