Toon Mtl Shader - Shadows Issue

[caio_agostinho]

Hello, I don't know if this is common, but I can't apply Toon Shader with darker shadows.
In my case it looks like the image I linked (light grey), but I see in some youtube videos it is darker by default.
I want a more stylized render with contrasting shadows.
Turning off the GI only makes things worse.
Is there a problem with my V-ray? Because all the settings I'm using are V-ray defaults.
And there is no tutorial for this Shader on youtube (at least not for 3ds max).


I'm using:
3ds max 2022 and V-ray latest version.
V-Ray Physical Camera (by default)
V-Ray Sun (by default)
VrayToonMtl (by default)

Thanks!
