Translucency

(1/2) > >>

Utroll:
I'm a bit surprised as I thought that a black value in translucency slot means no translucency and while checking it appeared false.
Or is there something I'm missing ?

Chakib:
yeah, the actual translucensy option is added  to fake it , wait for real sss.

Utroll:
I understood that, but it is not bad option neither as it's probably cpu friendly. Just cannot understand that behaviour not to interpret black value as no translucency, would be convenient to affect a material in just some part.
Vray SSS or double sided material are coexisting.

But if that parameter is to be deprecated then of course...
Thanks for your answer though

Ludvik Koutny:
I fail to see anything wrong with this behavior. It looks exactly as it should...

maru:
Translucency is not a fake implementation of some other feature. It is different than SSS. The black/white/green whatever you set is a COLOUR value for transucency, the other value is fraction. If you set translucency colour to black, then black colour will blend with diffuse. At least that's how I understand it.

If darker translucency colour would mean less translucency fraction, then how would you make a very translucent material that is dark?
