Hey. Is there any way of assigning one MXM material to front face and another MXM to back face? (Double sided material)

[dariolanza]

Of course jarekdudzinski,

Backface is an object property, so simply assign the material the regular way (and it will be applied to the front face) and on the object's Maxwell properties panel, there assign your other material for the back face:

Hello,

Sorry I have to make correction here.

In modo it is different, because it handles materials in a different way as other 3D packages.
Currently it is not possible with the modo plugin.

thanks for responses guys :)

I'm doing this right now by opening final scene in Maxwell Studio, applying back face materials and starting a render from there, but I was looking for a way doing this in modo.

I'm wondering why there is no back face material setting in object properties in modo plugin...

[Marton Day8]

In Studio you have materials what you can assign to the object.

In modo you don't have materials but the shader tree with material filters. So it is not very clear what can be assigned to the object.

This feature is on the plugin todo list, but still it is not available.

Hello,

Could you send a simple scene where we can reproduce the crash?
