| Nice one Lunchbox! Yet another mystery material explained! With so many materials available it's extremely helpful for people to share what these different materials do and more importantly how to use them in a real situation. It's a shame that the sound in the video was bad to start with, then got gradually worse until at 8.42 it gives up altogether, but by then you had explained enough to make this a very informative and usefull addition to the mysteries of materials. Thanks for taking the time out to produce it, maybe a new microphone is in order for the next one. (Or maybe it's just me? Anyone else have the same sound problem?) Regards. |

| No problem mate. To follow on from your excellent tute, you could use PS, (nudge, nudge,  ,), to create a very acurate mask for, (as in your example), the trees, from the background image. This could then be used in the 'transparency/opacity' slot of the matte/shadow material. This would then mean you could use just one rectangular plane to mask the model, (it could also be the same size as the render frame), instead of moving verts around to fit the image.Just a thought. Regards. |
