Would be great to see something like this in Max/VRay!

That looks awesome indeed, hopefully there will be a Max plugin some day

Would be helpful indeed.
Looks like it's based to this:

There is the source code if someone wants to make a port to MAX :PComment

That would be a very useful shader.
I first saw this technique in a presentation on the VFX of Batman Begins a few years ago. They used it to create realistic buildings in Gotham City. IIRC they created a huge library of cubic maps made from photos taken in various rooms in office buildings, and then the shader would assign the maps on a semi random basis.Torgeir Holm | www.netronfilm.comComment

That's definitely scriptable alright. I'd have a crack at it if I had the time. It seems quite doable based on the normal of a polygon.Comment

how would you script that? as far as i understand it, it's a shader, not some rendertime geometry/proxy thing...Originally posted by joconnell View Post
after the second look i'm not so sure...i wonder how it is set up and where the real benefit is, compared to simply modeling the inside.Last edited by plastic_; 19-07-2009, 02:37 PM.Marc Lorenz

Yes I see what you mean after reading more - I'm sure you could make some kind of parametric object or process to do similar since it's just some extrudes and face assignments - what they've done there is very smart though.Comment

I can see chaosgroup implementing something like this since vray is still most used for architecture for wich this shader is perfectComment

Has or does anyone produce a decent library of room interiors for this though?Comment

I imagine a lot of us would opt to make them ourselves (spherical HDR renders of 3D interiors), because as you hint, theres probably not a lot around! Or maybe that guy would sell just his HDR library..Originally posted by joconnell View PostComment

It is rather easy to implement. Did a quick proof of concept outputting colors per wall. Works like a charm. Outputting it as a seperate pass would be easy enough with either a Mtl_Select or as a ExtraTex element. Prolly wont have any time to actually create something usable. If anybody has, dont fear it's pretty straight forward
