It won't let the texture be part of the SSS calculation, but you can then mix a texture with what Carrara comes up with. So if you're trying to knock out portions of the SSS or change it in some way, you can use a texture. Very handy for putting that paper label on the outside of a candle kind of texturing problem. Attached is a sample image.

Click on the platform/version you need underneath the Try Shader Ops 2 to get the download you need.
