no bump objects does not appear in "vrayRE_BumpNormals"

[flat]

The material to which bump map is not set does not appear in "vrayRE_BumpNormals" RenderElements.
(Now, it is necessary to connect a dummy node to bump.)

Hi,

I think it is made for better control, you can always use the "Normals" element to extract the normals for objects without bump.
However, i will forward this to the developers for consideration.
Thanks for the feedback!

understands.

Notes:
"BumpNormals" elements of VRay3dsMax,
An object without bump is also included.

It is right!

I can confirm I never had any nonbump materials show up in bumpnormals pass. I thought that was the target hehe.
