Free Carrara Shaders - Polyloop

digitalarena · 29th May 2007, 17:49

Hello everyone. I have recently added a new section to my website to include a place for Carrara shaders

.

If any of you have any custom shaders you want to share, just email them to me on daniel@digitalarena.co.uk.

Visit my site here: http://www.digitalarena.co.uk/vmatter/www/index.htm.

Would like feedback on the site too.

Thanks everyone

.

Can you post some samples please?

mayito7777 · 29th May 2007, 18:32

The website looks great and so the shaders.

digitalarena · 29th May 2007, 18:48

Try this sample free shader.

It's dirty, weathered army paint with rust spots and blisters.

You can change the colour of the paint or the grime to suit yourself.

It is totally procedural too which makes it a small file and quick to render.

Have fun.

Will post more later.

Cool !

..sorry but

can you use the Hexagon logo?I suppose that has author rights
Its just a simple cuetion

Thomas · 30th May 2007, 08:20

On the intellectual rights, I'm ok as the creator of the Logo, but as the usage rights, it's a DAZ matter

digitalarena · 30th May 2007, 10:49

Did I use the hexagon logo? Show me where and I will sort it.

Sorry if I did - it was unintentional.

Thomas · 30th May 2007, 11:12

Sorry, I only have these one

digitalarena · 30th May 2007, 12:03

I have re-rendered the shaders using a mesh that does not resemble the Hexagon graphic. Apologies for my earlier blunder.

Thanks for pointing that out.

Thomas · 30th May 2007, 12:27

No need to apology. The problem may come from DAZ (not from me), but honestly, I don't think they will care of that problem.

Just to say I am appreciating in this picture the unused fragments and parts surrounding what's now used as the Hex logo ;).

Someday someone would have the nerve, and get something interesting.

Best, Thomas, and usual thanks for what you provide for all of us.

hmm. Not sure about those shaders. A few of them look like the default shaders that come with Carrara. While I don't have an issue myself. It might not be something that is legal to supply as free, since it is included content. Of course I could be wrong

digitalarena · 4th June 2007, 02:44

Thanks for the feedback Nichod. I guess I am not too worried about the standard Carrara ones as they are already available to all Carrara users and useless to anyone else. But I guess if Daz are likely to have a problem I can take them off.

I don't suppose you have any you want to submit to the site?

Meanwhile - have some more.

Just fiddling around after noticing my bath taps could do with a good clean.

sadot · 4th June 2007, 04:40

Digitalarena your idea its good, this weeck i will send you some shaders

digitalarena · 4th June 2007, 22:18

Thanks Sadot, I look forward to it.

I was inspired by Paul Taylor's site for sharing Cinema 4D shaders - http://www.maxon.net/~deepshade/

I thought we Carrara users could benefit from a similar site to share shaders between us.

digitalarena · 11th June 2007, 09:35

I've been playing around with Carrara's Layer List and Mixer functions to create a human eyeball.

The great thing about doing it this way is that the shader is completely procedural and so users can edit the colouring of the iris without having to edit a texture map in a third party program.

Have begun some vegetable shaders and added more Minerals to my site too >

While re-potting tomatoes into large terracotta pots, I couldn't help noticing how some of them get lichen or moss growing on the outside.

I see textures everywhere I look now. Enjoy.
