Simple Metallic Paint Shader for mental ray


#1

Hello,

I’m happy to release a free shader here, which is an implementation of “Reflection Model of Metallic Paints for Reflectance Acquisition”, an SIGGRAPH 2009 poster. It’s simple, fast, similar to mi_metallic_paint, Flake model is different than both mi_metallic_paint and mi_car_paint.

You can download the binary DSO http://ortholab.codeplex.com/releases/view/64849 , for Maya 2011 x86. You can compile it for your mental ray. If you found bug or have a suggestion please tell me.

Here is some results.

Samples = 128, Sigma = 0.149, Mu = 0.001

Samples = 128, Sigma = 0.249, Mu = 0.001

Samples = 64, Sigma = 0.349, Mu = 0.001
