Sheen Reflection

This page provides information on the Sheen Reflection Render Element.

Overview

The Sheen Reflection Render element is analogous to the Reflection Render Element.

The Sheen Reflection Render Element stores the indirect reflection information calculated from the VRayMtl Sheen Layer. Surfaces with no Sheen values set in their materials will contain no information in the render pass and will therefore render black.

The Sheen Reflection Render Element can be obtained by multiplying the Raw Sheen Reflection by the Sheen Filter. So while the raw sheen reflection pass gives the full reflection of objects reflecting in the scene, the sheen reflection filter sets how much of that reflection should come through in the composite. The two are multiplied together to create the Sheen Reflection pass which gives a true representation of the reflection in the scene.
