V-Ray 3.0 for 3ds Max: VRmats , quick method for creating a .mat ?

[joshpurple]

Hi all,

Thank You for any time and help in advance, I appreciate it .

I've downloaded the excellent Vrmats;



And I've started to create a .mat library in the Slate Material Editor (2014 64bit),
manually creating each one & adding it to the .mat ;



Is there a faster method (or maybe plugin/3D party app, etc.) for doing this?

Thanks again !

Edit/p.s. The vrmats are described as, "V-Ray materials (Low Resolution Library).."
is there a 'High' Resolution Library available?

Hi,

It seems that there is no short way to prepare a 3DS Max library from the Vrmat collection. I think this is something that we can improve on.

Not yet, but we are working on that regard.

Thank You Tashko ! I appreciate it.
I'll keep searching around, and if I find anything, I'll be sure to post it up.

All my best!

Any update on higher resolution maps for vrmats, or means of automating conversion to .mats?

Hi Scott, Thanks for the bump on this thread . I have not heard, or found anything on the higher res maps for the vrmats.
(and I haven't found any scripts or methods for automating/speeding up creating a 3DS Max library from the Vrmat collection. But, the guys from A&G Tool Company < http://www.agtoolcompany.com/ > did mention that they might be interested in working on something for that).

High resolution library of VRmats is not done yet, we are working on that matter.

+1 for some interest in the higher resolution textures, as well as an enmasse automatic way to convert multiple .vrmat materials into a single .mat file.

Thanks!
