I need substitute for color correct plugin!

[alexthg]

I got here a 64-bit processor, winxp64, 4gb ram, max64bit, vray64bit....

but i see NO color correct plugin for 3dsmax9-64 (www.cuneytozdas.com) !

is there any 'substitute' for the color correct plugin? any luck that cuneyt ozdas will recompile a 64-bit version?

[m_hinks]

with the RC4 it has a built in gamma correction within vraycolour mat, so you can use that once it is out.

[panthon]

If it only corrects colours, will it be of any use to correct bitmaps?

[m_hinks]

no, but you dont need to cc bitmaps if you have the inport bitmap gamma set in the preferences dialog.

[alexthg]

problem is, I don't use colorcorrect just for gamma correction, but sometimes to edit brightness/contrast/saturation etc.

well i guess I'll wait till Ozdas finishes his 64-bit version plugin

As I thought more about it.... why haven't they make this plugin 'built in' into 3dsmax

[m_hinks]

yeah exactly, if max had the option to do gamma to colour swatches as well as bitmaps automatically, then LWF would be a sinch.

Anyone tested it already, how does it come with V-Ray ? Any issues ?


Edit:
Can someone recall back, if you choose a bitmap and want to set correct, we put gamma 2.2 in the slot. ( with the ColorCorrect plg.)
This new one (AF Material) seems to want inverse gamma values, so the same map to be corrected, you should put in the gamma value: 0.4545.
Or am i doing something wrong ?

Yes. I think so...
I mean - 0.4545 is correct value

[Paul Oblomov]

Fast test

[Candelero]

Yes, indeed.
That's a bit ugly as lots of people would actually prefer calling the maps with real gamma values, i.e. 2.2, 1.8, 1.6, 2.5, etc... rather than calculating
value = 1/gamma., IMHO

Sure, but you can buy it and ask 'em to change it
