Hi everybody! I have some OSL shaders lined up for you which I’ll post here one by one as soon as the page for the shader is done. To kick this off I present to you… The Reflector! Links Page: OSL – Reflector – Rens Heeren Download: http://www.rensheeren.…

I’m not sure I follow the reason for the rough fresnel. Couldn’t you just increase the ior and decrease the reflection amount, or is it a case of this does it in fewer clicks and/or it’s more physically accurate?

[image] angles distort material Are there any shaders that anyone would like to see? A procedural texture (or a few) that emulated the weave of various types of fabric would be useful. The clothTex is nice, but only matches a certain type of fabric weave.

[image] Vray 2 for SU2014 works only with 1 user I had a chance to test the OSL maps in Maya, and other than a doubling of the inputs (one color, one texture) it appears to be working fine! True One thing that seemed to be missing was the string widget, as in an actual text field, this was a…

Shark, What is “clothTex”? The clothTex is nice, but only matches a certain type of fabric weave.

Yes, If you increase the IOR and decrease the reflection amount you’ll get roughly the same, and yes it’s less eyeballing with the shader and you can have varying roughness as well. Plus it calculates the front reflection colour for you. If you want to set up what I did in the shader yourself you …

[image] PhoenixFD light trouble A procedural texture (or a few) that emulated the weave of various types of fabric would be useful. The clothTex is nice, but only matches a certain type of fabric weave. Could you link said clothTex?

What is “clothTex”? Sorry that might be a Maya thing. Don’t know Max. At any rate, Vray has a plugin for it, so it should work in Max too. Just load it under the vray texture plugins.

Here’s the DisneyBRDF (minus the BRDF part I guess). I may try to get this working in GLSL instead since you can do BRDFs there… This works in Maya. I think Max might freakout about the getTextureDif routine, if so you can just swap that out with a result texture call. /* artist friendly metal */…

[image] Last bucket(s) stuck in build 3.00.08 That would be tricky. I had a quick look but you’re pretty limited in OSL when it comes to looking up geometry. A shader similar to the VRayEdgesTex might be able to do that. Maybe it might work somewhere along the lines of Photoshop’s bevel layer …

Rens, Luc was saying here that he was not able to connect an OSLmtl to a blendMtl or bumpMtl in Max. This works fine for me in Maya. Can you conform whether this is working in Max too?
