Quote - > Quote - I can produce 100 parametric variations in a single button click and then render them all in one preview. In a month or two, nobody on earth will have produced and tested more Lux materials than I.
I will probably let the DS users buy some of them. giggle
Cool perhaps eventually "LUXPOSE" users will have a large database of materials like the eyepopping one we have for Maxwell.

Oh wolf, you make me drool drool. That library is so cool.
Every renderer has a standard scene for material testing. Those balls are cool. Lux has a lux ball too, but I have not had time to track it down.
Maybe somebody who knows where it is could point me a linky, please?
I think also that some really great materials don't look so great on a ball and you don't realize how cool they really are. Like floor boards or roof tiles - you won't get an accurate sense of what they look like on a mat-ball.
It would be cool if some folks would take on a sub-project to create and share a small but varied set of material demonstration props of various shapes that we can use for materials that don't demo well on a ball. These need to have some good light setups as well.
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)
