bump error

Post by arcano » Mon Jul 07, 2008 3:23 am

Hi! I have a problem with this material http://www.indigorenderer.com/joomla/in ... Itemid=107 download from material database of this site.

After the loading of material from the skindigo window I've launch the render, but render doesn't start. With other materials it's all ok!

Sorry for my poor english :oops:


This is the error!

Hi arcano

Welcome to the club!
I've made the material you can't make work and I've have had the same problem until for a couple of days ago!

Now the quick solution:
Make a image map in a clean white color and use it as texture for the material. Make sure that the texture scale is the same as the bumpmap!

The explanation:
Its a bit hairy but its because the material you attatch to a surface don't have any uv cordinates unless you use a texture map!
Now the problem comes if you want to use a bumpmap without a texturemap on the material because the bumpmap can't use the cordinates from the texturemap and therefore Indigo don't know where to place the map.

Am I right?? Anyway the quick solution works perfectly! :wink:
