Hi all,

How does one get started creating custom materials using nVidia MDL in a way that they can be used in DAZ Studio?

Thanks!

    An MDL shader file can be added to Sahder Mixer as a custom brick - hold down Alt/Opt and drag it in to get everything set up for you. The MDL file has to be in a folder DS has been told to use as an MDL Directory (using the Edit menu in the Shader Mixer pane>MDL Directory Manager...)

    Umm is there another way of getting MDL in other than drag and drop from file explorer ?

    Yes, just use a Custom MDL brick and hook it up manually to the needed inputs and outputs.
