Title: Link tiling amount
Post by: Tok_Tok on 2018-06-07, 19:36:31

Hi,

Maybe this is already possible somehow but I'm wondering if there is an easy way to do it. I often find myself changing the Tiling number of a bitmap for every bitmap that's used in a material. Is there an easy way to link the tiling numbers of a few bitmaps together via node or something?

Yes, there is a way to link unlimited number of various parameters in slate material editor, it's called controller nodes (https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/3ds-max/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2017/ENU/3DSMax/files/GUID-C1828D93-F764-4F9C-92AB-A5C0BB20831E-htm.html).

By the way, go to this topic if you want to learn more about controller nodes and SME in general: https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=14304.0

In all those years using 3ds max I've never tried control nodes. Thanks for the tip, I'm going to check it out!
