Title: Layered Material
Post by: danielsian on 2018-02-12, 00:22:04

Hello guys

I'm trying to use Layered Material but I can't figure out why the "Amount" parameter is not working.

If I use 1, or 0 doesn't matter, nothing is gonna change unless I remove the mask.

When a mask is being used, is Amount parameter useless?

Is this a bug?

Thanks

You got it right, the Amount parameter is not working when a mask is used, the mask fully takes control then.
I had already suggested - quite a while ago -  greying out the parameter in this case. I hope that together with other things, like the ability to switch a layer on/off and change the sequence of them, this will be changed.

I think instead of make it grey, they could change the usability of that and do it like a percentage of visibility or something like this. And should work like in Photoshop, where even with mask you can control how much visible that layer is.

Thanks
