Messing with Centileo,

Hello Kirgman,
It seems I can't create two sided materials in Centileo. I have a plane and I want texture on its front and silver material on its back. I am looking something similar to c4d default front,back, both check box in material. Or a node that can define the same function.

It seems like centileo is not recognizing the side selection.

Hello Kirgman,
When on IPR, if I delete any node (say gradient) the whole material node system, delete from the editor. Is it a bug, or it is supposed to be like this?

What about the next update?

Hello, I need to create textured lights (light projection) with centieo.
I couldn't find a way to do so. Emission material is not providing the exact look, it is spreading the light too much.
Usually I work with a spot light/ ies light with the desired texture, but centileo seems not liking the texture in light.
Any idea?

C4d physical render with spot light.

The second image is I am looking to recreate but with GI and bounce light.

In Blender Cycles I already did.

Hello,
I am facing problem with png images with transparency. See the screen shot

PNG file doesn't use the alpha correctly. Cinema 4d standard render has the same issue with transparent png file, but once I connect the alpha with material alpha and turn on image alpha it will be good. In centileo i couldn't solve this issue. Connecting the png alpha to the material alpha is not working.

In the screenshot Left square one is png and the right one is tiff, both have the same circle with alpha.

I did some test with Centileo recently. The coin renders were pretty fast on my GPU (GTX 1660) with all reflection and depth of field turned on.
Render time is around 15 sec/ frame.

Though I did some adjustments in the render,
No displacement used
Max iteration= 1
Ray bounce = 4
Denoise image= on

Scene contains
hdr =1
light- 3
400 instanced coins with 6904 poly face.
Depth of field =1
