Title: Rough metallic paint
Post by: Dahlgren79 on May 24, 2018, 12:55:52 AM
Having a little bit och hassle to achieve this type of metallic paint.
I'm using KeyShot CAD so I don't have the possibility to use the material graph.

Any suggestions how I can make this in my version?

There you go! Just download the file and put it in your Materials-Directory inside your KeyShot-Folder!
Hopefully that helps you :)

Thanks! But the material does'nt work for me?
Seems like a color map is missing.  :-\

Here's an odd thing.
I downloaded that material and renamed it to 'Powder Coating Grey' - then put it in my linked 'Legacy Materials' folder.

Opened keyshot - navigated to that folder and I see the name is still in it's German original 'Pulv...'

Makes it very awkward to search for materials in the tab.

Can this be fixed please?

Hi
Open Pulverbeschichtung Grau.mtl file and change this line :

#define material "Pulverbeschichtung Grau" {

by

#define material "Powder Coating Grey" {
