Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Can someone explain me what is this weird pattern on the translucent material (no bump map or any kind of map)?

Render with V1, SL 13.3

Any chance you can post your material settings?


Tim.

Hi Hyltom,

Please post your material...I suspect a strange usage of Nd=1.00 in this material.

Nd is set to 1.2

You can find the material here:

Thanks Hyltom, I'll test it...

I don't have a clue what it is wrong with the material but it is somehow cool!

Yep, It 's like when you make a drawing on a block note then you turn the page to make a new one and some strong line from the previus one appear in the middle of the new sketch.

One week later...
Still no comments from NL Team about the fancy pattern.

So, may be you know about it and have no solution.
Or, you have the solution but as usual you don't care about your customer.
Or, you are not aware about that problem, in that case you could ask me the scene file or anything, I 'm ready to help.

Anyway, the minimum is to give an answer when you customer meet such problem. This is no more Alpha or Beta version...IT'S V1 that I bought (by the way, I'm still waiting the free licence) and as all products, customer is in right to get some support.

Sometimes it's best to bump your post again hyltom or it will get quickly burried under other posts. Would be cool if you could post that top part in a scene, looks like a geometry problem.

Happy to hear from you Mihai. Now I'm at home, so I will post the scene tomorrow. But anyway, I don't think it's a geometry problem...Look at the line closely, they are not following the shape but they are like on a layers above the picture.

...well, actually 4 days (2 of which were on the weekend).

I said that I'd test it...and I will, but if I test something I like to get a real answer...so it might take a little time. People are sometimes busy too, you know.

My complain was not for you JD... I'm sure you are doing your best to help.
I just fill strange that except you nobody (from NL Team) show up here.

So if they don't reply to each and every post where a user has a problem, then they have ignored someone? I mean if only 1 post is not answered "officially", then it's normal for that user to say: I'm ignored.....?

There would be no time for them to code anything.....besides people had already responded to your post and offered to help, where's the problem?

Exactly 19 minutes from your post to JDHills reply....

What the hell is going on here?!?

This is clearly more evidence that pre-benedictine cistercian esoteric symbolism has been and continues to be encypted into maxwell's statistical mutation sampling algorithms...

Looks nice though

I bet this could become a whole new art genre, haha. Instead of elephants painting with their trunks, Maxwell paints with its noise.

Those elephant paintings go for a lot too.
