Changing items in dforce/iray etc
How can I alter the textures these days otherr than using presets, please? I am thinking of things like marks or stains on clothing. It used to be straightforward - find the original image and create an overlay or change the colours. Alos it used to be possible to introdce rips and tears by simply altering the base maps, but I can't find them inthe new systems.

The method is still the same as before - use the Editor tab of the Surfaces pane, possibly using the Surface Selection tool to select the target surface. Don't forget that for rips and tears you need an opacity map.
Thanks Richard. Problem is finding an opacity map often.
