Hi Philip, you mean the new Corona Physical Material, right? This is only available in the daily builds, and please note they are intended mainly for testing / experimenting.
The old material is now called Corona Legacy Material and is also included in these new versions.

You can learn more about the new material here:
https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=31802

Once we will be closer to the final version of the Physical Material and Corona V7 release, we will definitely publish more tutorials / guides / examples / FAQ. :)

Thank you very much for the reply.
My apologies for the delay in getting back to you .
I use the daily builds, so that makes sense.
Thank you very much for all the hard work you put in to making this a great product.

No problem at all, and I understand it's a bit confusing. The new material is a big thing!

The new material is a big thing!

The new Corona Physical Material looks like a big change from the Offline Render Shaders seen up to now (at least to me).
To better understand how it works, beyond how it is used in practice, I wanted to ask you on which technical papers you relied to structure it, or if you will publish one yourself to talk about it.
