imagenetwork as a texture

[junaid]

Hey guys,

i was wondering is there a way to call my image network in shop as a texture,

for example i was working creating reflection ball in the scene i realize i have

to do certain alteration to my image like little bit color correction, blurring and

croping, so i did that in cops but then how do i load back that cop network into

my shop as a texture, with out rendering out image from cop?

cheers,

Junaid.

you can use the op syntax in the SHOP paramter, so it would look something like this

op:/img/img1/myImageNode

myImageNode should be the last node in your cop network

Just be aware of this syntax leads to un-aliased maps.

For best results use .rat files.

A way would be to link a copROP into your mantraROP so the image-network gets rendered before the rat files are used at render time.

I have tried with op function with pic and rat files, I didn't understand what exactly you saying.

i am attaching my file here, it would be nice if you could fix this.

Sorry for not being clear:

If you modify an image of any type in COPs and then reference it in any parameter with the op:/ syntax:

the output will not be anti-aliased.

For best quality you need to render the modified image to disk.
