Hello there,
We are trying to transfer shaders between VRay for Houdini and VRay for 3ds Max in a way that allows us to edit them in 3ds Max.
This can be helpful for our Grooming workflow :
If we are able to edit shaders inside 3ds Max, we can avoid going back to Houdini for the edits and re-exporting as .vrscene to 3ds Max, also we can have direct results with 3ds Max’s lighting.
Shaders coming from .vrscene files are in read-only mode in 3ds Max. Is there any way to recreate the shader’s material network inside 3ds Max ?
As far as I know .vrscene files contain text describing the shader, does it have enough information to recreate the shaders network ?
Thanks !

This can be helpful for our Grooming workflow :
- Grooming and shading are done in Houdini
- Lighting and rendering are done in 3ds Max
- Hair shaders are exported as .vrscene files from Houdini and loaded in 3ds Max
