Iray Settings for ONLY part of a surface
in The Commons
I'm looking for a good way to change IRAY surface settings for only part of a surface. In short, I have a mechanic scene where I want the hands to be greasy. On G3...there is no 'hands' surface.
Thanks in advance for any ideas

I would suggest using the geometry editor to create a new material zone, or else create a geoshell with a transmap.
There is also the LIE image editor in which you can add layers to any part of the body. Create a "dirt" image, or use an existing one. Open your surface setting for the arms (or whatever surface it is that has the hands), open the diffuse image with LIE
add a new layer in LIE and under "source" click where it says "None" and browse to your dirt image. Then move the dirt image where you want it to show up over the hands and scale it to fit how you want. Click "Ok" and you have dirty hands :)
