About layers

[q976431]

Will you consider allowing the layer content of 3dsmax to be turned on in the vantage interface during real-time connection?
Because turning on the layer in 3dsmax can easily cause 3dsmax to slow down, if you can pass the speed advantage of vantage. It might be better.
Then the final setting passes Save vantage configuration file?

Hi q976431,

The current workflow with Live Link is that you use Vantage as a VFB and you are limited to what you can do. You can :

• create cameras;
• create camera animation in the animation editor;
• edit environment and fog
• add post effect (LUT, Bloom, Highlight burn)
• Render:
  • snapshots;
  • HQ still image
  • HQ sequence
• save .vantage file with the changes from above.

However you cannot:

• transform objects;
• hide/unhide objects;
• reassign materials;
• edit lights;
• import external(including cosmos assets) files;

We will try to improve that workflow in the future to support more changes in Vantage.

Best regards,
Alexander
