When I enable Coat Specular RE I get nothing in the VFB, either in IPR or if I do a render.
Is this correct? Would be nice to have a coat specular pass.

Weird. I literally don’t even get the RE in the listing. I wonder if it is that I am using VRayOptionsRE as well.
Actually, it’s LightMix. Enabling the LightMix RE makes the CoatSpecular RE no longer show up!
And of course we always use LIghtMix, and utilize it to make the Light passes automatically.
Let me check—this might need to be logged as a bug
It’s gone back a long time in VRay, I never had luck getting Coat elements to work right, and now at least I finally figured out what caused it… the ubiquitous LightMix! I always just found way to workaround the need in Nuke, but would have benefited from the proper channel on numerous occasions. Hopefully you can figure it out easily enough. Probably some simple logic bug, maybe related to how LIghtMix used to prevent LIghtSelects (which thankfully was finally resolved).
It is now logged in our dev system!
