Awesome lesson. Good to see matx + karma has the same chops as other renderers

Awesome tutorial always could you explain any tip to flake shade?

[@jin416]

is there a way to export those node as texture?

[@frigbychilwether]

Hi, thanks for this. Really useful information. Some useful tips no matter what render engine is used.

[@raneemFX]

Thanks

i love how similar the logic with Keyshot material graph

[@rohandalvi]

Most material graphs function in very similar ways. The only difference is how open they are. Material X is very open. You can control literally everything. Which is a good thing. They just need to add more patterns and noise maps

[@SuperCarzetin]

amazing lesson thanks for that dude!!
PD: would be great have a similar one with Octane if you have the time!! :)

[@rohandalvi]

I think I can do that.

[@SuperCarzetin]

I really appreciated! that would be awesome! @@rohandalvi

Octane Solaris Please

It's easier to keep track of stuff if you create the 3 different materials, each one of them with it's own mtlxstandard_surface, and then after that, you blend them together with the masks

[@ripvangu]

wanted to ask this same exact question,I am assuming that there is a perfomance advantage in using one material?

[@Al1987ac]

But you can blend only two materials in Karma.

[@asr59]

@@Al1987ac but you can blend two, and then the result of that one, blend it with a 3rd one and so?

[@Al1987ac]

@@asr59 Ok, let me test it in H20.

[@asr59]

@@Al1987ac that's how I've done it in blender and ue4 before, so my guess is it will be the same, is like layering materials
