Help understanding roughness
Posted: Sat Jul 09, 2022 6:36 pm
HI. I decided to give it a try to Luxcore after a couple of years.
I am a bit confused about a scene I am building:
I am adding roughness maps to create a bit of imperfection, but I can not manage to notice anything in the render.
It might be the lighting, and maybe I should choose a different hdri with more contrast I am also not sure I am mixing the roughness maps correctly.
I tried to rotate the hdri and even when I picked the contrast area, I could still not see many details of the roughness.
I would like to share the scene but all the textures are paid. I am not sure if its possible without getting into legal issues.
Hope you can help me
