I want to play too. When is the next release coming? Lets see if i get the material inputs right from the screenshot: Kd = difuse (color) Ks = specular highlight Ke = emissivity T = transparency S = reflection (by elimination) Did i get close?
Btw, are you using rhinos opengl pipeline or a custom one? For example, if in V5 there are real time shadows, will grasshopper get them automatically or you'll have to implement them separately? There is no mapping and textures right? I guess this are at the end of the todo list.
