zoomer Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Have you tried a Material from Scratch and using the Metallic Shader ? Diffuse : Black or 0% Brightness Reflection : Metallic > Gold Reflection 100% (Because Dimming is done by Color Value) Roughness to your liking Scratches to your liking Transparency OFF Bump (better OFF too) That is the most physically based correctness you can get in VW or C4D. 1 Quote Link to comment

zoomer Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 ah, you should find the color RGB for Gold Reflections in the www. Try the Glass Reflection and try that color instead of the Black setting and with brighter, nearly white, from that Gold Color where White was. The rest stays the same. 1 Quote Link to comment
