I'm not in the least bit angry - I have no idea what you're talking about or reacting to.

I was just telling you what I see.

Yes you're working on a shaders for a prop. So the glossy is too big. That's not an indictment against you as a person - it simply means there is a number that you should make smaller.

I don't have a way to communicate tone here - I'm not spitting or anything. I'm just typing as I do several hundred times a day. I give advice on how to improve, not comfort. I make money as a consultant, so every minute that I'm typing to this forum, I am making less money. Yes I work every minute I can. That isn't bullshit. So I type fast, and what I say is curt - short - minimalist.

So - calm down and either react to my suggestions or don't - makes no difference to me. Don't react to my tone because there isn't any tone - you're making that up. But even if you're not getting a lot out of my posts, other people are  by lurking in this thread. You have no idea how many people learn from these exchanges.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
