We have three solutions: 1. Leave it as is 2. Introduce an extra factor (as you did) 3. Make BI default intensity equal to 1, which will unify colors between BI and Cycles, and then just darken default RGB values (which is the only logical and simple solution which does not break compatibility)
Your solution leads to more complicated code and supports ridiculous way to manipulate colors by additional factors instead by colors themselves. -- Regards, Mikhail Rachinskiy jewelcourses.com rachinskiy.com On Tue, Dec 2, 2014 at 2:17 PM, Antony Riakiotakis <kal...@gmail.com> wrote: > If we have two solutions only then the second worst is the best, right? > right? > > Ahem.... > > Most people (OK, that is two out of three admittedly :p) seem to agree that > the result is too bright and that extra controls are redundant. > > In that case it makes sense to just dim the default material - the only one > users have no control over - and leave manual specularity control through > the color widget for the rest. > > I'm going to leave this as is from now and see how others like it. > > On 2 December 2014 at 02:30, Mikhail Rachinskiy <wellmader...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > Hi Antony, > > > > https://developer.blender.org/rB4ee53074aa951c42b0fb0899cd6376d124992304 > > OK, you chosen the second worst possible solution for this issue. > > > > Would you also introduce new factor for default Cycles material? > > > > -- > > Regards, > > Mikhail Rachinskiy > > jewelcourses.com > > rachinskiy.com > > > > On Mon, Dec 1, 2014 at 3:19 PM, Mikhail Rachinskiy < > wellmader...@gmail.com > > > > > wrote: > > > > > Or we can make default intensity value for BI materials equal to 1 to > > make > > > materials look similar between BI and Cycles, after that we can lower > > > default Diffuse and Specular RGB values for both BI and Cycles. > > > > > > I thinks it is the best possible solution which will not affect old > > > materials and does not require additional factors. > > > > > > > > > -- > > > Regards, > > > Mikhail Rachinskiy > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Bf-committers mailing list > > Bf-committers@blender.org > > http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers > > > _______________________________________________ > Bf-committers mailing list > Bf-committers@blender.org > http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers > _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
