Hi guys,
I cant find vray triplanar node in create and other textures. What an I doing wrong?
Thanks
Same here.
You can get it with the node editor by hitting tab and writing it in, but it’s nowhere to be found in the materials menu.
What build is this with? The triplanar should be visible in the “create node” window (in the “other textures” category).
- In Hypershader press to bring up the search box for creating nodes.
- Start typing “triplanar” and select Vray Triplanar".
- You now have a triplanar node
thank you all
This is really cumbersome now, I just had to search to find the node, it used to be in the Hypershade list if i remember correctly Other Textures, why was this changed? is really a step backwards . Im on Vray next update 1 Maya ,2018 build 4.12 windows 7
We never changed this, it’s where it’s always been. Can you give me a screenshot of where you’re trying to find it ?
The screenshot has the plugin node, which generates UI in a different (more generic and definition-driven way, instead of using a UI Template) - which is why it looks different. The regular (maya-native-templated node) should still be there. I have no idea what could have gone wrong on your end, and I’m out of the office until next week, but I’ll ask someone to look into this.
In the meantime - can you tell me the exact V-Ray and Maya versions, and the OS?
And if you could try re-installing V-Ray and/or deleting the maya prefs folder and see if that helps?
OK, try looking for it in the ‘other textures’ category ( but not the V-Ray > Other textures category, instead - the Maya > Other textures category). Seems to be wrong, I don’t know why, because we haven’t done any changes there. I’ll make a note to fix it.
We’ll fix it.
Great Alex, we will enjoy that.
Right, we found that this happened when we made the viewport preview for the triplanar. Apologies for that, something very minor was changed in addition that broke this.
And btw, there’s a viewport preview for the triplanar node now 
Thanks Alex, I noticed that the other day.
