shadow mask problem

Thanks for your script.
but "shadow mask" dosen't work in vray.it's all black.i can't see and select the shadow in ps. so i read the script and found that all selected objects are black material, same as unselected objects.and the background color is black too.is that a bug or maybe i missed somthing?

Frame Buffer

Hello Ivan :) Using your script almost everyday, i am wondering if a slight tweak could be possible ?
I'm using the Vray Frame Buffer, and it would be fantastic if RenderMask could force using the max Frame buffer instead ?

That would preserve the previous render (for region renders for examples) and mainly, that would avoid the color corrections or exposure corrections applied on the VFB, that affect a lot the masks !!

I have no idea if this is possible though ...

Cheers,

Forest

Hi, if you want that Rendermask work fine with Forest pro, you have to unchheck the CONSOLIDATE button on the Geometry panel in each Forest object. ;-)

Forest Pack Support

First we would like to thank you for the life saver script its our number one script in the office:).
We are trying to use RenderMask with the Forest Pack plugin Pro from itoo soft.
Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, most of the time it does not work and we tried several tricks and modes (Wirecolors, Luminance etc..) selecting at the same time the distributed elements and the surface we are scattering on, non of these works. So I thought sharing this with you.
Thank you a lot for your efforts and the good work.

Almost perfect.. almost! Except opacity map issue.. :(

Thanks for your script.

But there is an issue with the opacity map option. The rendered matte cutout and the foreground object material opacity don't match up!

Perhaps this is because of 2 sided material?

Is there a way to fix this? Or am I missing something?

3ds max "matte element with object id" works perfectly but using it render times are a lot bigger.

Cheers!

Thank you !

Hi Ivan,

It is a great news for me that you have updated this wonderful script (I'm talking about the long awaited Multimaterial feature).
I'm going to wait the next update with the output's format lock feature asked by zrK to do the update though :)

Thank you again !
