  • How to reset Material Editor to VRayMaterials ?

    Hi,

    I just changed my computer and started with a fresh installation of 3ds Max 2016 and VRay 3.40.03. Previously, when I went to Customize > Customize UI and defaults Switcher, and that I chose "Max.vray", each time I reset the Material editor, every materials were replaced with VRayMtl, it was very convenient.
    But now, when I choose 'Max.vray" and I reset the mat editor, it doesn't work anymore: I come with Standard Materials instead of VRay materials.

    Does anybody knows why and how to fix that please ?

    Thanks a lot,

    It should just work, however I had a mate a while back and his pc kept resetting to MentalRay, even though iot was setup the same as all the others in the office.
    Even when you manage to get it working, the materials are NOT set to the new defaults.

    I'm hoping they will finally update it with SP5 coming soon... (I had the same hope for SP4)

    You can also manually edit some INI files to get it to reset like you want, but we shouldn't need to do that

      Thank you so much Morne for your answer.

      By any chance do you know what to change in the .ini file to have the default materials set to VRayMtls ?
