Hi there, at my new job, they are using Arnold and I’m impressed with the Alsurface shader, I was able to play with it and it’s MUCH better then in Vray..sorry. Here are some doc about it : Loading... https://leegriggs.files.wordpress.com/2015/07/alsurface.pdf Can we get something VERY similar (…

[image] Changing 3ds max's bitmap bluring default...Vray's AA still using version 3.30.05 due to this problem here: - Chaos Forums All the more reason to help us fix that bug… I don’t think you ever gave us any way to reproduce it? Best regards, Vlado

Hey guys, There’s a new version of the shader (with a recompile for 3ds Max 2015): https://github.com/ChaosGroup/vray\_al\_surface/releases *) Added separate bump maps for the diffuse and reflection components; *) Added support for render elements *) Added options for reflection depth and subdi…

Vlado I see you have a note on Github to add SSS to a light select RE. Is this something that could be done with the VRaySSS2 as well? Would you then add “SSS” to the drop-down choices for the Light Select RE (so we had: normal, raw, diffuse, sss, specular)?

[image] Monitor 1920x1080 vfb Is it correct to assume that the material subdivs are not active when “use local subdivs” is off in the Render Settings? That’s correct. The logic for greying out the subdivs is missing when the plugin shader is created from a V-Ray plugin. Implementing this would…

It appears that the GI is going into the SSS render element, instead of the GI render element. I’m attaching a Maya 2015 scene illustrating this. ALtestGI.zip (10.8 KB)

Yep. That’s the result with the sss2 shader as well when “scatter GI” is enabled. The GI element by definition only stores diffusely reflected illumination. If the sss2 stored its GI in the GI render element, you would not be able to composite things correctly when “sss mix” is between 0.0 and 1.0 -…
