Curtain material
Curtain material
Made this in Kerkythea quite quickly and not tested in a render. So, please, if you have a nice scene try it and tell me if it's good.

P.S. Don't know if It's good to use KT's material preview here.

Re: Curtain material
Massimo, if it's the one I'm thinking of, it looks like this when rendered, and is really good.
Twilight v.2 will allow you to achieve this curtain within SketchUp/Twilight.
Using the KT preview scene is fine.

Re: Curtain material
Wow the render looks really nice!
Did you use my material for that?

Re: Curtain material
Sorry, have not looked closely at your material yet.
Shown below is the Kerkythea render setting that which I have found to be a perfect setting for curtains with SketchUp - because they are usually single face.
It is actually by the inimitable Alvydas.

Re: Curtain material
Ah, OK. The material I've made is a bit more articulated (have also a bit of spec. for example), but Alvydas's one seems pretty good.
Re: Curtain material
Here is your material, same model.
I will try to create a material library for use with Twilight that has several colors of the Alvydas curtain. Not sure when it will get done. Feel free to make and post your own.
This material you have made seems to take a lot longer to render than the other one - just to warn you. Likely it's because of the added specular then.

Re: Curtain material
Thanks for the test! it looks not bad. I'm cooking one too.
Yes it's a layered mat whith fresnel ramp procedurals and it have a bit of falloff too.This material you have made seems to take a lot longer to render than the other one - just to warn you. Likely it's because of the added specular then

Re: Curtain material
Ok here I've build the material with the settings you posted (diffuse colour set to 80% and transucent&refraction 40% each).

Re: Curtain material
And here is a very quick comparation on a model that Frederik post here somewhere. Changed some material and sun&sky settings.
Both renders were made with the same materials, with the exception of the curtains, and with the same sun&sky settings you can see in the picture below.
>curtain_Fletch-Alvydas easy 09 - 7 passes in 15 min
>curtain_massimo easy 09 - 7 passes in 22 min.
In mine also the outside seems brighter...

Re: Curtain material
Great work massimo!
I have difficult to avoid the grey that appears in my curtains render.
I saw your work and seem's that what i'm looking for.
I made the download of your material, but i can´t open it in twilight's material dialog box.
There is any tip that i'm not doing?...
