Create Material Node from OBJ Material
Posted: Thu Sep 20, 2012 6:26 pm
After importing an object (from Poser in this case), there is a single object with a lot of materials. It was recommended to create standalone material nodes and plug them in, instead, so that if I had to tweak the pose or something of the OBJ, I could just re-import it, and not have to go through every material again.
That is fine, but is there a way to "copy" a material from a OBJ to make it a standalone material node? I made a very limited scene, but there is still 50 material's, and to re-create every one, every setting, would be quite a task. ...and this is a small render.
Thanks!
(I am new to all this, so be kind.
I am attempting a "test drive" after I heard the announcement of the Poser to Octane plugin)
