Hi Dalai,<br>
<br>
This is very cool :)<br>
<br>
One small note, with Cycles each Texture node has also mapping<br>
settings built in (in the Texture Properties), so you can use only 1<br>
node instead of 3 if you wanted to. It may also be a good idea to<br>
enable "Sample as Lamp" in the World Settings.<br>

</div>I'm not sure what you mean here? The edit mode limitation I can think<br>
of, is that editing a mesh does not update in Rendered draw mode until<br>
you go back to object mode, but that seems unrelated to this.<br>

</div>This is something that I have been looking into for mango (Ton calls<br>
it the "happy shader"), but I haven't found the right implementation<br>
yet. I'll definitely have a close look at the paper/code here.<br>
