  • from new max 2009 materials to vray...

    Well ,

    I know vlado has supposed somewhere, he could make a script, to transform easyly max new pro-materials to vray materials...

    Well the workflow of revit to max seems good for many situations, expect of the materials and mental ray.

    so a script that would transfer pro materials, maybe also the whole scenesetup to a vray conform setup would be a real nice thing...

      Vlado, you planning to :
      1) covert the material to support vray?
      2) write maxscript to convert the material
      3) create custom materials like the new ones?

      also do you plan to include a sample in the sdk for a converted material?

        Most likely, V-Ray will internally convert the materials to V-Ray materials and render them directly, without the need to modify the scene. As such, there will be no need for extra conversion.

              No, I don't think we will manage it for SP2... there are 14 or so ProMaterials, so that will take a while to implement and test all of them. However, once this is done, we will post the update immediately.

                Will the conversion also convert lights (sun/sky) and perhaps cameras ?

                  If you want it, it can be done

                      maybe the converter can have a check box look to it to ask you what you want converted

                        I understand that you wouldn't "convert" anything, internally converting them would mean that they just work properly with VRay, no visible conversion needed.

                            are the pro materials really that great? I have seen the demo...nothing special to me...Waste of time imo to implement them. I understand that it has to be done, because majority will ask for it, but still.
