Shader Authoring tool for Maya.

#1

Hey guys,
I created a shader authoring framework called BlissLib. With BlissLib an artist or TD can create his/her own library of shaders of any complexity. Renderers which support shader network swapping during IPR sessions will take full advantage of BlissLib’s dynamic shader creation features.
I would like to share the tool with you guys. Go ahead and start creating your own material libraries! http://renderstory.com/blisslib-shader-authoring-tool/

Very cool! Thanks a lot for sharing, I’ll definitely take a good look at it when I have some time. :slight_smile:

Hi TheRazorsEdge,
My pleasure. The installation is extremely simple so it shouldn’t take much of your time.

That looks really great, I’ve been wanting a way to store RIS networks in an easy to access workflow for sometime. I’ll definately try it out. Much appreciated.

Thanks! I installed it yesterday and it works fine! It really helps a lot, regarding organising custom shaders!

Good job!

Hey guys,
Just received an email from an artist from Japan. She sent me BlissLib with her own custom library. The swatches were actually made in PS :slight_smile:
