In Houdini 10 I made this object, applied Chrome material with environment map added to it. All has been made simply and without any difficulties. But in Houdini 11… I tried to use new Chrome material, added environment map to it, but the result, to put it mildly, is rather far from perfect… I tried to influence material parameters - their titles have quite clear sense, but the behavior of a material didn't correspond to the expected, especially, when the question concerns reflections (I can't see reflections of environment map). Direct transfer of parameters from old chrome to new has appeared impossible as the set of parameters differs. Can anybody help me to set up parameters for chrome or gold material (with using environment map) for new Houdini 11 material model? Were can I read about new Mantra Surface material (the Help contains the incomplete description of parameters)?
Thank you!
This is my object with old and new chrome material:
