Andrew West Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Perhaps I am missing something obvious but after much searching I still have not found a way to set a material ID color. What I want to do is have the ID of my V-ray glass separated out in photoshop so that I can place a reflection on my building very accurately. Any clue how to do that?

Andrew West Posted June 26, 2018 Author Share Posted June 26, 2018 Finally. After searching for another 45 minutes I found it. For those out there that like to adjust their materials post production here it is: Go to the stand alone material editor Advanced-Options-Color-ID color This is an important feature that most people will find useful. It should be noted that within Form.z there is no way that I have found to set the material ID. You must save it as a V-ray material first and then use the Editor.

Justin Montoya Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Thanks for sharing Andrew! I think we should submit a request for this to be added into the Vray for FormZ plugin under the Material Parameters > V-Ray Material Type > Material Options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew West Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 I completely agree. The material ID channel is critical to post production work no matter what your field is. Every client likes to tweak the final materials and re rendering is a complete waste of time. Form.z must implement a material color ID channel into the Form.z translated materials without having to translate it into a V-ray material first. I will see what they say.
