AI Surface Node

Opacity – Assigns transparent properties to the material where white is completely opaque and black is completely transparent. Maps can also be assigned to create a material that has a non-uniform opacity.

Diffuse Color – The color of the material. Note: The actual diffuse color of the surface also depends on the reflection and refraction colors. You can use a texture map for the diffuse color.

Diffuse Strength – A multiplier for the diffuse color.

Diffuse Bump Map – Specifies a texture for the bump or normal map for the diffuse component. The bump effect here is added to the General parameters bump effect. If no map is set in the General parameters or the map there is disabled, the map in this layer still produces its bump effect.

Diffuse Bump Amount –

Diffuse Bump Type –

Reflect Color – The reflection color. Note that the reflection color dims the diffuse surface color.

Reflect Strength – A multiplier for the reflection color.

Reflect Roughness – Used to simulate rough surfaces or surfaces covered with dust.

Reflect IOR – The IOR to use when calculating Fresnel reflections. Normally this is locked to the Refraction IOR parameter, but you can unlock it for finer control. 

Reflect Distribution – Determines the type of BRDF (the shape of the highlight):

Beckmann – Uses a Beckmann distribution for the reflection.
GGX – Uses GGX distribution for the reflection. The GGX distribution has a longer "tail" compared to the Beckmann distribution.

Reflect Bump Map – Allows the user to select a texture for the bump or normal map for the reflection component. The bump effect here is added to the General parameters bump effect. If no map is set in the General parameters or the map there is disabled, the map in this layer still produces its bump effect.

SSS Mix – Enables or disables the SSS options.

SSS Mode –

SSS Density Scale –

SSS Weight – The relative contribution of the shallow scattering layer to the material.

SSS Color – The color for the shallow scattering layer.

SSS Radius – The distance that light is scattered within the shallow layer.

Reflect Max Depth –  The number of times a ray can be reflected. Scenes with many reflective and refractive surfaces might require higher values to look correct.

Reflect Subdivs –  

SSS Subdivs –  

Consider All Objects – When enabled, the V-Ray AI Surface considers all intersecting objects with Al Surface when calculating the sub-surface scattering effect to allow for the effect to "bleed through". This option is not available in V-Ray GPU.
