Hi!

Just thought i would share my first experiment with the new node system:)

Here I tried out the dielectric and this is the result i got after some
tweaking to the default settings. With Fprime 3.0 this rendered really fast! original size height 1200px rendered in about 40 min :D

I gotta say i`m blown away by the potential of this stuff! finally it looks like
lightwave is moving forward and taking on the rest of the competition again!

feel free to post your own experiments here, I would love to learn more about nodes
since i`ve barely begun to scratched the surface :)

Hmmm... nice, I like it very much.
I guess we can finally get rid of old junk like air polys, fresnel gradients and such! Yay!

I do allot of medical device stuff with tons of clear plastics so I'm real excited about learning these new shaders.

So with this shader can you avoid using incident angle gradients in the reflective & transparency channel (something I do with my clear glasses & plastics)? Or would you still control that with another node?

Beautiful materials! And great model too!

thanks guys! the model is actually really old but was
a good object to do node tests with :)

Rickmorgan: material nodes do all the fallof and so on automatically, u only have to
set sertain parameters like absorption and refraction, pure fun in other words :)
