Material Override for Arnold and ART

[kulaginb]

Material overriding is not presented in main interface for Arnold and ART. For Arnold known solution is  http://veda3d.com/override-material-for-arnold/ , but I think that this option must be present on main interface.

I would like to have that in good old Scanline as well. Sure, you could use Scenestates to get this effect, but you lose the connecten between MatEditor and Scene (if you want to modify a material you must reload in Mateditor -be aware of the Triangles of the swatch ;-).No better to have this option for every built-in renderengine.

Just my 2Cents,

Stephan

Hi, in the Render Settings + Diagnostics tab, there's a Shader Overrides function:

Shader Override

Global shader override which allows you to override the shader for all objects in the scene.

is this what you are looking for?
