Mantra Transmission Color, at Distance March 19, 2021, 7:10 p.m.

Hi. There's a toggle for "Enable Absorption and Nested Dielectrics" under Rendering->Shading tab in mantra ROP which needs to be enabled for transmission colour to work under PBR.

That was it, thank you

Mantra Transmission Color, at Distance March 12, 2021, 6:09 p.m.

Hi all,

This is driving me crazy, I'm hoping that it's something silly that I've missed.

No matter what I set the "At Distance" value to (very small to very large)in the Principled Shader, I can't get the color to show up in the transparent geo.



I have a polygonal sphere, radius of 1, Transmission Color 1,0,0, and like I said, I've tried very small(.0001)and very large (1000) values in the "At Distance" parm, no change. I get the red in the caustics though, which is baffling to me.



Renderer is vanilla mantra, PBR.

What am I missing?

H17 Add Fur/Paint Thickness Attribute Shelf tool error March 5, 2019, 4:21 p.m.

Hey all,

Anyone else run into this with the off-the-shelf “Add Fur” shelf tool?

-create a polygonal sphere
-choose the “Add Fur” shelf tool
-select the sphere
-in the “geo1_hairgen” node, go to the “Thickness” tab and switch “No Override” to “Skin Attribute”:



-hit the “Paint Thickness Attrib” button
-error: “The node ”“ referenced by parameter ”Groom Object“ does not exist.”



Thoughts?
