yeah - I know what you mean - I've wanted one that just overwrites the alpha of an input a few times. I consider writing it as it's really simple. Then I decide I can't be arsed as it wouldn't be used often enough to justify 10 minutes of dev..... damn I'm lazy.

Grab the shader wizard in 5. It's in the plugins manager under the new entry.

call them inputColor of type color and inputAlpha of type scalar. The code you want is:

miColor color = *mi_eval_color(&params->inputColor);
miScalar alpha = *mi_eval_scalar(&params->inputAlpha);

*result = color;
result->a = alpha;

return miTRUE;

Cheers,

Alan.

yeah, but that takes 4 inputs!
I want two colour inputs, one for the rgb, the other (which is a black and white rgb image) for the alpha.

Hi All,
Brain not working here.
In the render tree, I have two rgb sources. I want to combine these so
that the first becomes the rgb and the second becomes the alpha of the
combined rgba colour. How do I do this without using any of the

Illumination nodes ie. Phong, Lambert etc?
This is probably a stupid question, so sorry in advance!
Thanks
Chris
