The VRayOverrideMtl is a utility material
provided with the V-Ray renderer. It allows a surface to look in a different
way depending on whether it is seen through reflections, refractions or GI.
With this material you can get a fine control over the color bleeding,
reflections, refractions and shadows of the objects. For more info see the
Example section.
