hello everyone!

in my scene i have this cigarette pack, all the graphics are not reflective( and i am using a diffuse material for that) but the logo is super reflective and with a bump.

i have tried to stuck on my pack 2 different materials with alpha, like i would have done with c4d standard materials.
and i have tried the octane mix materials, but i cant figure out how does it works!

pls help!

hi,
you need a b&w map where, for example, the white is the diffuse material and the black the glossy part, and then assign the mask map to the 'amount' channel in the mix material ;)

Hi,

I did this, but I also need to place a logo onto circular brush metal texture.
So I need to place the logo in a certain position and the circular brush metal texture in an other position.

How can I do this with only one mix material applied ?

Thanks,

Can't you mix 2 mix materials ?
Using the same principle for mixing them (B&W texture).

1. use the main material for box
2. use material which has bump and reflection and check "mix materials"
it should work this way
