These are so awesome I've bookmarked this thread. :)

Here is the new version of my Superfly shader. I have added sub-surface scattering to it in this version. For those unfamiliar with my shader I have cobbled this together from info I have gotten watching tutorials on Cycles material for Blender. I am not a blender user but have a copy on my computer. The shader is made up of three nested compound nodes but is intended to be used without ever having to go deeper than the main node. Most everything you should need is exposed so you can plug maps, masks, or anything else into it's inputs like you would on the Poser root node or the Physical surface root. The shader should make physically accurate textures that use roughness modulated Fresnel reflections. With it you will be able to make most materials you need: plastic, wood, metal, rubber, leather, etc. I have now incorporated SSS into the shader which can be controlled by a mask if you need. It does not do water or glass material right now. I still consider this a work-in-progress and if anyone has good ideas for it or finds mistakes in my work please let me know and I can fix/amend the shader and we all can benefit

did some more work on this and was able to get refraction into the shader.

Downloaded and can't wait till I have time to see how you did this!

Thx Ghostship!

Any chance we can get the car paint with flecks shader? I'm making a ball gown for Dawn and want to use it on the overskirt and corset.

sorry I'm answering this late. I did not get notification in my email.

Not sure how you would get flecks/sparkles in the paint. maybe use a noise node to vary the color coat. I'll take a look.

a new version (version 3) of my shader is available now at Share CG. I included all my other shaders in the zip. Most of the stuff here in this thread is in the zip now. I added Anisotropic reflections and you can now use normal maps in addition to grayscale bump maps. https://www.sharecg.com/v/86231/view/7/Material-and-Shader/Poser-11-Superfly-Uber-Shader-version-3

yes, I spelled Diffuse wrong a couple of times in that.

Thanks for the heads-up ghostship. I'm downloading the update now.

one of the best reads I've seen on here in a while, good work on the shaders Ghostship

Superb work, sir. Thank you for keeping the flag flying for the creative Poser Community I applaud your efforts and your generosity in sharing them with us.

Thanks! Love your stuff too! Poser would not be the same without EZSkin, Scene fixer etc.!

Ghost, this is so awesome, you have no idea how much time and aggravation this has saved me!

I have a question about your first post though. You've got that cool exploding liquid, is that a prop that can be bought somewhere?

I've been seeing this thread for ages and I still can't figure out why Boni would want Sticky Coffee. Ewww.

Get Poser 11 and find out!!!

Going to give this a bump to match the bump my head needs for forgetting about it.

Or, how stupid was that since it's a sticky and doesn't need a bump.

I'll just get me coat.
