Rose Quartz material

[Spirou4D]

Hi everybody, Just a simple question!
About "LuxRender - Absorption - Rose Quartz.txt" file with Rose Quartz lmb!

There is the message of the Luxrender console:
"[2011-09-18 12:59:48 Info: 0] Freeing resources.
[2011-09-18 12:59:48 Error: 2] There was an error while checking the size of file 'LuxRender - Absorption - Rose Quartz.txt'
[2011-09-18 12:59:48 Error: 4] Unable to read data file 'LuxRender - Absorption - Rose Quartz.txt' or insufficient data
[2011-09-18 12:59:48 Warning: 0] Parameter 'filename_data' not used"

Now what can I do with this recommandation , please?

Are you using network rendering? If so, the problem could be that the render server's luxconsole doesn't have rights to write to its own folder.

If not, could you post the full path to the absorption file? Just to make sure I'd also try renaming the file so that it doesn't contain any spaces, even though in theory this should not cause trouble.

"Are you using network rendering?" no.

This is the full path not relative:
"C:\Users\Patrick\Documents\Mes CAO 3D\BIBLIO LUXRENDER\Materiaux LBM\Rose Quartz (procedural Clouds Voronoi F2)\LuxRender - Absorption - Rose Quartz.txt"
Make the test yourself with this file, please.

Thanks alot for your help.

Hmmm...thought that material looked discolored. Not sure LuxBlend25 is handling tabulated data in LRMDB mats correctly.

Hi Spirou4D

It's best to use LXM.

Add in materials file:

Actually correct ior is.

   "float cauchyb" [0.004068890120834]
   "float cauchya" [1.537050008773804]

I've hidden this mat from the main db page until we can figure out what's wrong with tabulateddata in mat db entries. (dougal2?)

In the meantime, Meelis has provided what you need to duplicate his mat correctly above^

Great Thanks to everybody. I would wait before the file lmb2.
Congratulations.
