Hi Neil, JSP and all..
I was apparently abit to hasty in this.. playing VSL guru.. which I am not..=)..
I noticed that my way for the gold material, is not completely working =)
It wont show for example wooden pattern in the reflection of a wooden sphere...
Though a change in the Secondary ray Shader, fixes this....(I think...)
Instead of using a VSL Copy.. use a VSL Operation Object.. like this
Illumination*=(x,y,z)->xyz(GoldSens)
Too me this seems to fix it.. but I am just a hobby VSL fiddler.. =)
Any VSL GURU please correct me.. !, or maybe show alternative or more correct
ways of doing this..
I hope I am not confusing more than I try to help..!
Take Care

Massive. Thanks Stefan.
Also I recall that Andy did a reflection control Tut in a 3DWorld mag at one
stage.

Hi Jean-Sebastien..
Here is a simple prj..
Two lightsource, each with its own material using each an own channel to
control which object and how much they are affected by them..
Also a ground using the original 'Gold' material (in which I just added a
'Secondary ray' Shader) that uses an own user channel 'Gold Sens', to
control which objects and how much they are reflected in the ground.
The values for each UserCustomChannels.. ('Gold Sens', etc) is set in the
'Properties' Win, 'Col' Tab
Just select wanted object, then in 'Attributes' DropDown menu, select needed
Channel, for ex. 'Gold Sens'.....
Some simple info in the prj.. (some comments also in the 'Gold' material, in
the 'Advanced' Mode
If something is unclear, just ask..
Take Care
Best Regards
