Hi,

Today we (me and loocas) were experimenting with some car paint setups and some nice results came out of it, so i decided to share them with you. I am attaching Max file. The file is saved in Max 2013, so in case you use 2012 or 2011, you should try asking someone using 2013 to resave it for older version. (I know i could have done it, but you know, its evening, i am already tired, and lazy, and stuff... :) )

alieneye:
the car paint shader setup depends on the lighting, models curvature and camera angles.
but the base is always  the same:
falloff on diffuse and 2 reflection layers (sharp for top lacquer layer and blurry for speckles simulation)

Ludvik Koutny:
Actually i found it to be a bit more complex than that, if you want to create really believable car paint ;)

alieneye:
yes, actually it is more complex,
but my quick setup still looks better ;)

Ludvik Koutny:
Sometimes simple setup is not enough, but yes, in most cases, where you do not replicate any real reference, this works fine ;)
