Quote - bagginsbill I used A3 with Capsces kioki in the images I posted.

Here is another image using Rishiki, there is a problem when using VSS with him, but nothing a copy and past didn't cure :)  He has a few extra material zones. I put them in with the picture so you could see

I'll add those tomorrow. BastBlack told me about those, but I didn't put them in. I was so close to shipping, and didn't want to break anything. Now I feel comfortable adding more rules.

Here's a quick lesson on how to do rule editing.

Open the VSS Prop in the material room.
Edit the Shader Rules material.
Click the "Designer..." button in VSS buttons.
Click "Add a Rule Node".
(I'm not at VSS - doing this from memory)
Use pulldown and choose other - type it in
Type in the name, such as beard. That's for exact match.
For substring match, enter beard
Hit ok.
The "Rule beard" node will be added near the top.
Connect it to the desired Copy Template.

To add a new shader zone altogether:

Use Designer.
Click "Add a Material Zone".
Use dropdown to choose.
If what you want is not in my dropdown, choose other - type it in. Then type Template XYZ.
Edit Shader Rules in mat room.
Click "Add a Copy Node"
Use pulldown to choose the material you just made. (It will be there.)
Add Rule nodes as needed, and connect them to your new template shader.
Populate the template shader with some shader.
As you add Image_Map nodes to the template, they need to be named correctly.
Hook them where they go. Then click Auto Rename Images (or Image Maps - can't remember.)
