Post by: iacdxb on 2017-08-12, 12:34:39
Hi,

Is it possible to add curvature shader in upcoming update.


Thanks.

As far as I know, nothing like this is planned yet. But I will add it to the list.

This has been a long standing request for Max but always has been declined, and while Max 2017+ offers a built-in way to get this it's far from ideal and not as powerful and convenient as a shader/map solution. If the C4D community want this, too, I hope it's going to be considered as a future native map in Corona.

Thanks for that.
Sure it will add the value of Corona.
Few materials & shaders... will help designers to make work fast and more beautiful, car paint material, Hair material, soft box shader for light, dirt shader... I hope these also will be in your list.

thanks.

Just FYI: Hair shader is already being worked on in the max version, so it will appear in C4D version too, sooner or later... ;-)

Thanks Houska for update.
Thats will be very nice if Hair for C4D... in sooner.

Thanks.

If I'm correct and this equates to the dirt map in Vray, then +10 for this as I see it as an indispensable feature

Dobcat already found a way to get curvature map from rounded edges. :)

I think the solution for this is on this link: https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=21381.0

this is sadly no solution,

the effect is not the same as with curvature shader!
only a rough approximation which works only in some cases but not all where a real curvature shader woud be needed

Agreed. We need the real thing!
