Answered: LiveLink not creating material blends, just copying Master Material
Hi, I'm working with Megascans Unreal 4 Livelink with Unreal 4 version 4.19.2 - When I click on two material instances, as shown in your instruction videos, and click "Create Material Blend", it merely copies the Master Material with the white default tiles and doesn't carry over any other materials selected. "Reset… -
IN PROGRESS: Materials going inside other materials
I've been having issues when trying to assign a material to color IDs. This usually happens when I have a number of materials already (4-5) and try to assign my last ones. It puts them inside of other color ID materials without me telling it to. Normally if I tried to do that myself it would prompt a popup asking me if I… -

[3ds Max] Transfer Slate Material Editor views between files
Do newer versions of 3ds Max offer the possibility to transfer SME view tabs (so the exact layout/representation/ arrangement of the material nodes as opposed to simply merging the materials / material trees) between files? If not, are there tools for that? Couldn't find anything, and people don't seem to ask for it much,… -
Handling master materials and material functions for a modular environment?!
Hi everyone! I'm looking to start another environment but I want to be smarter about how I plan my materials instead of just making unique materials for each mesh. I'm going to be making a modular scifi biodome and would like to be guided in the right direction as far as materials and material functions go for a modular… -
How do you use IRO for opaque materials?
Hello! I've been informed about the use of the index of refraction for opaque materials such as brick, and I'm curious about how they apply it in Unreal for opaque materials. Should I configure it with the same settings as glass, like using Translucent and fast forward shading? I haven't come across many tutorials on this… -
