That was all procedural - with the new nodes. There are a bunch of textures like crumple or something and then also I use them on some of the reflection and spec. maps as well to break it up. I can post my node setup if you want.

**gpdesigner** · 07-18-2007, 02:36 PM

What is a node? That's LW9 lingo isn't it . . . I am running LW8
I have LW9, but I am waiting until I upgrade my Mac before I install it.
I got a sweet deal from Newtek . . . god I love those guys . .
Anyway, I ran through the preset surfaces and found a few textures, I believe I found a "Splotched" metal surface of some kind I want to use on my project.

Yeah, the node system is all from LW9 / 9.2... there are some very cool materials and some very cool ways to use them. If you notice that the reflections on the floor blur a bit but they actually disperse the colors a bit too so the rgb values will shift the more they blur. It makes for some very realistic reflections - but they are slooooww......

I never really used the standard textures with LW so all I've really been using are the nodes so far.
