Thanks very much Eternal Art!

I have been using MIA _Material in XSI 5.11 and it's great to have more info, tips and tricks about it.

Thanks again,
Felipe

Is this hosted anywhere else besides rapidshit?

I've added another link for the document on top .

Does mental images have other publicly available documents such as that covering other shaders aside from what is included in the documentation shipped with XSI?

I guys! I have a little question. Does anyone know how to let the physical sun and sky work togeter? The sun of the physical sky is always in the same place... I dunno how to connect the parameters (in maya the sun of the physical_sky follow the sun of the physical_sun...)... Ciaciaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

After you create your sun, go to render>pass>edit>initialize sky shader (sth. like that)

From there pick your sun, and click apply. Now it follows the position of your sun. (this is in the manual btw)

Thank you very much! I'm sorry that I asked something that is in the manual. I've searched a lot before posting but i didn't find this thing... could you tell me the number of the page? I've tryied using words like "physical_sun" and "physicyal_sky" in the search field but i didn't see anywhere the "initialize sky shader" command. Now it works, so thank you so much!
Ciaciaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

guys any ideas why i get this error with the physical sun:

ERROR : PHEN 0.6 error: mia_physicalsun: Should be applied to a directional light source

I use infinite which i thought it was the directional light and then tried everything and still get the same error...

xsi 6...

Many thanks to Eternal Art,It's very useful to me!

Yup this document is extremely helpful...I started using the shaders and I created some very awesome looking surfaces with it...now the only thing that would help me is trying to speed up the shader without sacrificing quality...
