I am watching the InlifeThrill Beauty passes video, and he has a Tab in the options at LV (between "post" and "settings" tabs) with all the options for beauty passes.... i dont have that Tab.

Why is this?

Im using the v3 beta versions (already bought V3 but i have not downloaded it yet)

Dude! Just try it out. It's for both.
Once you will click that you want to enable render pases, it will appear in live view.

Ok, now its solved thank you both!

What was happening (remember, im a noob) is that when you enable the render passes and select a beauty pass it does not change anything.
But then, you have those little icons at the LV wich you must press so the LV changes the display mode to that mode.
I didnt know that; i was waiting the LV to somehow change on its own... wich really does not make sense.

So yes, its working well. It was my fault not understanding how it works.

Thank you again for helping noobs like me! :D

Aoktar, one more -probably silly- question, please (sorry :D)

If i remember well... we had a matte option on diffuse materials, to get shadows and so.

I cant see it now. Is it there, or it wasnt there ever?
