I’d love to see an option for a highlight like the “Relaxed Highlight” option in the finalRender Stage-0 material. This causes a “true” highlight: no dirty blending of the highlight area into the diffuse area, but looking like the highlight is alpha-composited onto the diffuse area. As the highlight area of a standard Max material is a faked reflection, a true highlight option really makes it look much better instantly.
What I’d like is to have the composited highlight as a part of the VRay material, or even better: as an option in the VRay render dialog, so it the clean highlight technique also be applied to the standard Max material, if this is possible.
