Quote - > Quote - ok i have been playing around with VVS. i think i havent readed the whole thread so i dont know if this was already posted. VVS works the best with a bright IBL. without an IBL or for example with just one light it looks very fake. but with an IBL it looks groundbreaking.

can we change some of the settings in the shader? for example i noticed that you dotn even use specular value heheheh :) you are really a PRO

Thanks.

Yes please go ahead and mess with the shader nodes. You edit them on the VSS prop. Then you click Synchronize to copy the new settings to all the materials on your figure.

I posted a screenshot a couple pages back with arrows showing the key parameters.

I made a mistake and made my demo lights too bright. Thus the shader needs very hot lights at the moment. I'm fixing that.

i am such an idiot. 3 times i went over this thread quickly reading your posts. and i didnt see it. i am such an idiot. ok now i understand what to change. 
can iask you for a simple way to explai to me how you make the cpecular without the specular value? is it a trick or what?

p.s. i think you make perfect shaders. they are perfection. do you think we can make a perfect poser skin shader for outdoor and indoor lighting? this year i have been reading your posts and other forums and i think it just can NOT be done. this VVS is great because we can make quick changes. i think with VVS  we can make a sun outdoor shader and then an indoor skin shader. and it works this way better. i think its better to change some settings and make them more realistc, then to make a more fake shader for both indoor and outdoor.
