Optimize materials -- not turning off trace reflections
« on: August 18, 2017, 05:33:28 AM »
I'm using the Material Optimizer and have unchecked Trace Reflections.

After I use it and drag/drop the material into the Material Editor, the Trace Reflections is still turned on.

Why isn't it working?

Hi,

Well, the Trace reflections option has effect just when converting Standard Material(s) to V-Ray / mental ray materials. Anyway, you can access this property from maxscript by:

.option_traceReflection = off (.option_traceReflection = off)

Also, you might find handy the "Vray Mass Material Editor" script or similar ones. Hope that helps.

Best regards,
