Hey
Since some time I've been using mentalray and one thing I find repetitive and time consuming is to tweak every shader in a complex scene to obtain a desired level of realism.
So I was wondering if there's a place on the web where ppl upload their materials and you can download them and apply directly onto the object.

Fryrender, for example, has this page where ppl share their materials :
http://materials.fryrender.com/#home

On many other engine's website (maxwell, finalrender) there are libraries like this.
Is it such place with mentalray?

Thx

The trouble is with that site most of the material presets are for Max.

http://www.mrmaterials.com/ When it gets going, it will be very cool. Because all the materials have their own sections which are divided up for XSI, Maya and Max.
