The script provides a workaround, but I think there should be an option at the converter to override metalness on demand.

Thanks for the feedback, we have various improvements logged for consideration.

I found this thread since i am experiencing the same problems. Only almost all of my materials get turned into metal? Attached is a very simple object with a material with only a diffuse map on it, the Corona converter makes it a metal material!

Any update or feedback on this issue? The converter is completely useless like this. Attached is a screenshot of the material editor of a terrain that i converted from Vray to Corona. Almost all the materials turned to metal! There are no metal materials in this scene. Apparently a fallof map in the reflection slot also makes a material metal. But als the grass material got turned into metal, there isn't even a reflection on the original material. Can you please fix this, in a scene with mixed metal and non metal materials it is very time consuming to fix everything by hand since the script to turn metal to non metal is useless in such a situation.

Thank you for letting us know, let's hope the improvements will come soon! I am very satisfied with this render engine but the converter is currently causing some grief. Keep up the good work!
