Title: Layered material mask is off-set? [USER MISTAKE]
Post by: tennet on 2019-08-23, 11:21:24

Hi,

I'm creating a simple material for a product (candy bag) using the Corona Layered Material. I've created a "Base material" using the color map and some other channels and I've then added a "silver foil" material for the 1st slot in the Layered material.. I'm then using a black/white alpha (PNG texture) in the "mask slot".. it renders OK, but the silver foil material i off-set.. it's not rendering perfectly aligned on top of the color map? Why is this?

When I tried to re-create the whole material, just using a single Corona material, then the same "silver foil" alpha texture renders prefectly aligned... Is there something I'm missing in the settings for the Layered material or why is it not aligned correctly?

Thanks,
Frederik

That's interesting, never saw this. What Max/Corona version is this? Also, when you say offset is it really off or do you mean that it produces an outline/fringe instead of a clean mask?
Can you attach a simple scene and screenshots?

Hi,
Sorry it was just me being stupid.. ;) Had two "almost" identical color maps in my folder, and I was using the wrong version.. problem solved. :)
