The Change Refraction Mode operation scans all parent materials in the project and modifies their refraction method to use the Index of Refraction mode. This operation ensures that materials with specific refraction settings behave consistently across different rendering scenarios.

Dependencies

Run this operation before any geometry-related tasks, such as Smart Merge or Create Instances, to maintain material consistency.

Best Practices

• Material Review: Run this operation in projects with materials using refraction to ensure correct rendering behavior.
• Backup: Back up your project before running this operation, as it makes direct changes to material properties.

Considerations

• Visual Changes: Altering the refraction mode may impact the appearance of certain materials. Use cautiously in scenes where refraction is critical.
• Project Scale: For large projects, consider running this operation on a per-level basis to reduce processing time and manage memory usage effectively.
