Blur
Denes the radius for the convolution if the Anisotrophy group is checked. Radial convolutions are
not supported because very similar effects can be achieved by blurring the environment map (it is
also much, much faster).
Samples
Denes how many samples will be taken by the convolution. If you enter 1, no convolution will occur.
The value should be similar to your Blur radius value. The appropriate range is 2 - 50.
Jitter
Denes the maximum random offset per sample of the convolution function. This rids the blurred
environment of the stepping effect when you can see multiple images layered. The appropriate range
is 0% - 100%.
Environment Color
The controls the base color used to attenuate the reection sample in tandem with the reection
Intensity parameter. Utilizes the Falloff parameter to mix with Edge Color.
Edge Color
The controls the edge color used to attenuate the environment sample in tandem with the environment
Glare parameter. Utilizes the Falloff parameter to mix with Environment Color.
Ambient page
Color
Denes the base ambient color used to attenuate (multiply by) the scene ambient color provided by
CINEMA 4D. You must have an Environment object active in your scene for this to effect your surface
at all.
