Vray material convert + alpha channel tutorial

[kraphik]

Hi

I search info about how to use alpha channel effectively from this forum. someone mentioned using colorize in layer. Many users still find it tricky to use new material settings and so I decided to make a tutorial that many users will understand what differences there´s when converting the native cinema 4d material to vraymat. Especially the alpha channel.

thanks. i found something you did was not necessary but works too.
instead of clicking effect and then put white and black etc..
just put layer then right click on the small icon of the alpha image then invert image =)

your work is really appreciated =) thanks. :wink:

I found it though it was difficult to spot at first.
So After all we have now several ways to invert the alpha which is great.
Thanks.
