car renders

[olishea]

Hi Majid,

I think the preview images all relate to the same material.

there are 6 textures in the "oli" package, however, they all seem to render as the same material (the first, more dull grey)

See images, (I cut car in half to reduce file size for testing), note the materials are the same.

The 6 balls all come out the same even though each has a different material.

However, this grey is very very close to the lava grey.....the other materials looked even closer

here is the SU view: each sphere should be different

looks like something is wrong with the materials. I don't have time to 'play' with them, and as they are a user-to-user type of thing, I would like to help, but think that Majid will have to do so.

My guess is that the diffuse texture is pointing to the wrong place in the mat file? You could edit this yourself by putting the material library file in the Kerkythea material library folder and opening the library in KT's mat editor, open each material to take a look, redirect any mis-placed paths, save the library, and copy it back to your Twilight folder.

I am a noob at kerkythea. I opened it once and it scared me!

Yeah I think its a very simple problem.

dear Oli, I can't understand the problem ...maybe Fletch could help more, at this situation...( as I am not at home now to play with material)

[olishea]

has anyone else tried these paints? same problem?

has anyone else tried these paints? same problem?

Sorry, but I haven't got any time to play with these at the moment...

Have you tried installing the Car paint Metallic or the Car Paints KT material libraries...??

Remember... KT material libraries can be used together with TWR...

[olishea]

Yeah I do. There's no rush or anything. I got all the KT libraries now hehe but that lava grey I wanted is a very specific colour, hard to replicate as its almost pearlescent purple-grey.....its weird!

no worries
