Hello,
I have textures for 2 different sides of leaf material with transmission texture.
I made mix material first, and I wanted to make this much newer technique.
After some research, I guess this can be done with universal material and layers, but I really could not achieve this yet.

Could you please tell me how should I construct node system correctly for this kind of material?

I have
2 diffuse and 2 normal (front and back) textures
and
1 roughness texture
1 transmission texture


thank you

Hi,
in my opinion, you don't need the Material Layer, but some Mix Texture nodes, with Side node in amount, for Diffuse, Normal, and Transmission in an Universal material.
You need to set the Transmission mode to Thin wall Diffuse, and multiply the Transmission texture with both Diffuse textures.

ciao,
Beppe

Thank you, @bepeg4d,
I did that and it worked very well. Also, I didn't know thin wall detail for this.
