Well, right there is my day of experimenting and playing with the fake stone shader, and documenting it. I went over the basics of the shaders being used, and then in the end showed how to kinda compile them together and create some boulders. Still learning myself about fake stones so its probably not the best tutorial, but as I learn more I will probably come back and revise this one and perhaps clarify it more.

I probably will take a break from tutorials for a bit and do some actual images for a bit. Afterall gotta get my NWDA picture I want :P. Hopefully my two tutorials I've done can help clarify topics for those curious.

thanks so much for this and everything else you have contributed. this also goes out the rest of the forum. using this program is obviously a labor of love. you have to try a setting, wait, view and try again. this is not for casual users. sleep however is not an option ---again thanks

A very good read and lots of good info about the shaders as well. Especially the redirect shader was a good bit of information.

Thanks!
