Override on cluster material

Override on cluster material

Hi List,

Here is the plbm:

I've got this mesh with 4 different polygon material clusters on. All have
displacement.
I want to override their surface to a constant instead of texture maps (and
keep the displacement.)
When I do this, only one cluster gets affected.
The override doesn't seem to be able to sort-out multiple cluster entries.

I know it has been talked about before but I am curious to know
if someone has got a better/simpler workaround that the one proposed by
Ludovick on this thread :

/msg00641.htm

Thanks all,
F.
