XSI_ShaderMultiPortConnection

This template is nested inside a shader or material template. For each input port in the shader or material that is connected to a multi-output shader, this template specifies which output port on the multi-output shader is connected to the input port. Even if only one of the output ports is actually connected, this template will appear inside the XSI_Shader or XSI_Material template that defines the connected input port.

Each connected input port uses its own XSI_ShaderMultiPortConnection template, so there is only ever one connection defined in each template. This is true even if the same multi-output port connects two of its outputs into two input ports on the same shader or material.

 

This template corresponds to the CSLXSIShaderMultiPortConnection class.

Description

target

Name of the input port connected. For example, the surface parameter on a material.

output_port

Name of the output port on the multi-output shader. For example, the out port on most shaders or the AO_fake_out port on the Particle Shaper compound shader.
