Max -

The values you're typing in for Anisotropy and Angle don't do anything. Once you map those channels, the values are taken only from the map.

Having a value for the roughness channel, when it's texture-mapped, LIMITS the influence of the map to that value, like a compressor. If you want the full-range influence of your roughness map, you check Lambert, or set the roughness to 99.

Bump values do influence the material when the channel is mapped, of course. The bump map merely defines the global look of the bump, but the typed value increases or decreases the perceived displacement.

3DTP: Thanks man i'm glad i could be of any help, and maybe more will come later..

jdp: Hehe thanks and you're welcome

Tom: Thanks master but this is how i always do my materials to get them to look more real and it was about time to start sharing them now.

8etty: Anytime hehe i'm happy to help you move back into 1.0 now, you might just enjoy it..

Mike: Hi and you're right you know it's just that the numbers there are remains of my first test which was done without maps and then i just forgot to remove those numbers as it looked alot better with maps than it did with just plain numbers. It's a mistake on my side to not cleanup properly there after the initial test was done. But good thing you pointed it out as i forgot to mention that at all, now everyone else knows how this works thanks for your useful and helpful tips Mike.

sandy: Hehe, you're welcome and i'm happy you think it's good hope it helps a little..
