      Hello,

      I just wondered, and really got me stuck, is there a way to reproduce metallic flake paint in V-Ray for SU?

      I know that in max it's a pre-established setting which gives the flake aspect to a metallic paint, but can't this be done inside VFSU?

      Made all the tutorials with metallic car paints but can't get the flakes to appear.

      Help πŸ˜„

        No, the flakes are not available in vfs 2.0

        Some time back, one of the vray support guys shared a material that approximates the flake effect:
