Andrew West 345 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? 2 Brantheat and JoryikMn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew West 345 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. 1 Des reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin Montoya 323 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 1 Jaakko reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew West 345 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.
