Various render material for different pipes

[jiri.drahotusky]

Hi everybody,
I am using MEP to create pipes for a visual presentation. I know change material in Style objects, but I want render all the pipes together with the others materials (hot water - red, gas - yellow and so on...). And filters are only for colors on view, not for render. Do you know anybody, how to do it?
Thank you.

Hey Drahotusky

We run into the same problem and it can't be solved. All the pipes have the same material paramter. What you can do is try to filter in different pipe systems and give each a different color. But I don';t know if that also works with render colors.
As a last option you can point brush each fase of all the pipes with a material. But that is really a lot of work to do!

Goodluck! J Schermerhorn

Thank you for your answer.
I agree, filters are only for objects color, not for render color. But I try brush, if it will be practicable. Perhaps only for a few pipes...
