Better VRED Phyton Documentation with code examles

[maxepopaxe]

Hello,

i work on VRED 2016 for a major car company in wolfsburg.

i'm trying to generate Materials from a XML based Material library. I encounter some issues with creating Materials via Python Script.

for example:

fieldAccess parameters for imageMaps are not consistent. u always have to experiment ---> roughnessMap works different than specularMap

i could create a specularMap but no roughnessMap

Why create a specularMap for a UPlasticMaterial, wich uses glossyMaps in the Material Editor

How to access the Use ICC Profile field and set Input Gamma via script instead

How to access Lab values for Material Colors via script

Big Problem also while investigating:

The NodeEditor doesn't update on Material Editor changes and vice versa.

The Documentation is only Useful for experienced Programmers
