bitmap texture no tiling

[flipside]

When using a bitmap texture, with tiling off, how do I control the color outside of the bitmap? I would think that the diffuse color would show where there is no bitmap, but this renders out black always.

Please don't tell me I should use a mask texture in the transparency slot and a second diffuse layer just to create this simple effect...

Unfortunately flipside - I think your fears are correct?! That's the only method I've found that works so far!! I'm desperate to find another!!

... I suppose so it's a bug.

I'll pass your concern along to Vlado. I'm not sure if that is an issue of ours or V-Ray. But we'll look into it.

I'm not 100% sure but I think in older builds, this problem was not present. Wherever there was no texture, the diffuse color would be shown. Haven't used textures much so maybe someone else can confirm this?

You know...this could possibly be a result of my change in the multiplier system...I'll do a few tests to see if that could be a side effect of the change

joeb - if you find the problem, is there any chance this could be fixed in an early service release??

definately - we have another thing in the works that might be added very soon. So if anything is fixed in the coming days it will be released to you all as soon as possible.
