Sorry to bother again, but I’m stuck on a stupid problem.
How come I can only set bump throught a bitmap? each time I try to use anything else (a grid, a checker, a noise etc…) it has no effect on the rendering.
Is that a limit of my testing version or am I setting something wrong?
Another question is about displacement: I’ve seen really cool .mat for v-ray for max made with no texture but just a displacement setting, like grass or fur: is this something different from bump, and is it possible to have the same thing on VRfR?

Currently only the bitmap texture supports bump-mapping. Also displacement is not available to us at this time either. We are working toward resolving both those issues - but the displacement side is out of our hands entirely unfortunately.

beside this we can do both using other ways.
what do you want to achieve on your project ?
we surely can help.

Thanks for your kind answers!
I’m working to make ceramic tiles.
This is what I did (with a bump bitmap).
As you can imagine those are the esiest to be done! :shock:

do you have a reference picture ?

I would like to make something like this, but I cannot imagine how to do it without displacement..

It seems like this topic has been covered elsewhere today (JP?), but you might be able to modify Micha’s Grass concept with a different image to create a carpet like that.
Might be a place to start.

Thanks for the answer… I really do need to have a registered copy since most intresting topic are unavailable to me

I knew that she didn’t have access to it, but I wanted to wait to see what she needed first before copy pasting info…

Maybe I should simply wait for Micha to update Material tutorial 
(it’s him, isn’t it?)

Do non registered VFR forum members have access to the Gallery Section? I forget, if so…
This is what I was refering to.

how do i have to understand that? :?: :roll: :?:

I’m referring to the information Jean-Paul Paloux provided in your thread, in regards to Micha’s grass concept.
However; I didnt’ know if those using the 30 day demo version had access to the Gallery Section.
Bump texture and displacement questions
Yes, I can! Thanks, I’ll work on this!
