Multiply Blend Textures

00Zero

hey, is there a way in 3ds max 2009 to multiply textures like in photoshop?

for example, i have a tiling texture that i apply to an object, and i also have a seperate ambient occlusion texture for that object thats using unique UVs. is there any material that will let me multiply the AO over the tiling diffuse texture?

yea you should be able to do it with the composite material in max.

Actually I thought I read that if you use the Composite material in 2009 only that inside that material you could specify layer type as in Photoshop IE multiply / screen / overlay ect.

Autodesk had a video of this on their site, I think its the Composite material, although it could be mix? pretty sure its composite.

edit: 1min beat down by Pixelmasher guy! gak!
