Disney BRDF & Material

Disney's principled BRDF model is available in appleseed in two forms: as a standard appleseed BRDF ("Disney BRDF"), and as a custom layered material ("Disney Material").

The best reference for the Disney reflection model is probably RenderMan's PxrDisney documentation.

SeExpr

appleseed's Disney material allows using arbitrary expressions for any of its inputs. Expressions follow Disney's SeExpr syntax. Please refer the SeExpr User Documentation for details.

Wiki

The wiki on GitHub also contains documentation that you may find useful.
