Re: Surface edge material?

This is actually a better pic of what I´m looking help for: So I have a model that has two materias (asphalt & grass). I would want to add sand to the edges where asphalt and grass meet. (So that sand blends to grass and blends to asphalt too.) How can I do that? Thanks!

Re: Surface edge material?

I have two polygons, pink and blue. I want to blend those together by adding some blue gradient on the edge of the pink material.
Is there some way to do that?

(My actual need is to blend a grass field material to a sand pathway).

Surface edge material?

Hi,

If I have only one polygon (ie. round polygon), how do I make with Material Mixer so that polygon edges are different material than the center of the polygon?


(I want to "blend" between two materials but dont know how...)

Re: Sheer curtain shader?

Hi,

Using Universal material helped a lot. Thanks!


Below I attached two new pics: One with Specular transmission and one with Diffuse transmission.
I like that Specural gives some look through (etc. the man) but otherwise the Diffuse looks better. What to do about this?

(Diffuse Thin Wall didn´t ...
