Quote - So where's the easy to use User Interface for adjusting bump, specular, displacement, SSS, AO, where's the dialog saying not to ignore transparency maps or anything that is necessary for the skin to look ok?

Have you had a look at Parmatic? Bagginsbill's skin shader supports it. Doesn't get much easier to use than that.

Besides, this is free. What are you whingeing about? that Bagginsbill hasn't had time to update? Free is free. As we in the Linux world like to say: "this OS is free. If you break it, you get to keep both pieces."

Have you used VSS for anything else these last two years? Do you even know what else you can use it for?
