Exclamation procedurals 0wn j00

you have a texture looking too shiny? SMACK A PROCEDURAL ON IT! dirty them up! make it messy! nothing in the real world is as clean as a fresh render... that means you have to fake dirt.. and procedural textures are just the way to do it! layer em on, till it looks right!

weeeeeeeeeeel... they are inbuilt into max and LW. just use multilayer textures, and use the proceduals as alpahs for eachother for a real good radomization... stuff like fractal noise and whatnot

Hmm.... well, I was hoping you'd be willing to go into a good explanation for the rest of the group, but hey, here goes.

Give this site a shot:

http://www.snotmonster.com/

They have a plugin called TrueGrit that is FREE and is also aparently pretty good. I haven't played with it much, as it's rather late. But take a look, there is an HTML file in there that may be a bit hard for some to follow, so a good explanation, perhaps even with robot parts, is probably due. Tomorrow (WED) happens to be my off day, and I'm going to make it my tutorial day. Just write up a tutorial or two to share here each week. So look for a better explanation on TrueGrit tomorrow. Involving robot parts of course...

Good luck all, and happy animating.

Slap a noise/smoke/small resolution stucco map into the specular channels of your materials. Play with them on a sphere lit from several angles until you get the settings right. Voila.
