Compiling material nodegraph to shaders
-
I am looking into supporting cinema4d nodegraph materials into our pathtracer plugin.
I looked through the documentation, but found very little about the material node system on the technical side.Would it be possible to compile or translate material nodegraphs into GLSL shaders?

Hi @ECHekman, thanks for reaching out to us.
With regard to your question, at the moment with current API, is not possible to traverse a node-based material shader graph and consequently to convert to other convenient datasets.
As said already in other threads, it's under our radar and we hope to share soon updates on this regard.
Cheers, R

Thank you for your reply.
I take it this also means its not possible to manually convert node ourselves? -

Right.
