Quote - Now, this is where is would be handy for a node equivalent in both system would come in handy, then each system would know which nodes are safe to use.

All the best.

Great Uncle LROG

That's easy. The only "nodes" that are safe to use are image map based ones (color, transparency, bump, etc). In addition, parameter settings for diffuse color, bump, highlights, transparency are usually recognized, but they won't necessary look the same due to the different render engines.

Edit to add: While there are many nodes that have equivalents in both programs, their parameters are not easily matched and they often use different scales internally making it necessary to manually adjust the settings.
