Quote - Well you are successfully doing things. You are indeed set up to copy shaders into four zones from four templates. 

I just don't understand why. Are you planning to manage hundreds of sets of wings simultaneously? I get that you're not ready to explain why you're doing this, but I can't explain what you should be doing if I don't know what you're trying to do.

 

The reason I changed it to 4 material zones is because all of the Winter Queen Wing material zones are different and hborre suggested that I needed a different material zone for each of the WQ Wing node setups that were different.  Which is all 4 material zones because the image maps vary and so does the poser surface node values.

To be honest I don't know what I'm doing or why. I'm just trying to follow along with instructions given to me to achieve what I want....

A VSS shader that will work on the Poser 6 Winter Queen Wings. The same way that the default VSS shader works on V4.

This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
