I might recommend watching through my basic material tutorial for v2. There is a section on using Stacked Layers, which will be especially helpful:

Basic Materials for Maxwell 2.0

Nice to see that a high resolution version can be downloaded via torrent. Wish... You know what...

2NicoR44 - this tutorial is only for us who are waiting for our downloads. You have already got one! So it is not intended for you! :mrgreen:

Thanks a lot Mike. I think that material creation is the most important skill (and toughest to learn) in Maxwell. Your tutorials have always been a big help.

Definitely, and it just requires the understanding of a couple of parameter relationships, which is why I show them step-by-step and explain what's happening. Makes all the difference when you understand what's doing what, and it makes creating materials fun, which I think it should be!

Yes, the tutorial is great. Thank you.

BTW could anyone (Mike?) seed the "mov" version via torrent please.

The download option downloads as a php file? And also the torrent file is messed up as MS said. Thanks

Hello Mike,

In your material tutorials for 1.0 you spent time at the beginning setting up accurate/neutral lighting. In this 2.0 tutorial you have switched over to IBL. Can you comment on what your considerations were when switching over, how you achieved neutral lighting and what your HDRI is like.

Thanks for your very informative video!

Regards,

Gary
