http://www.autodesk.com/products/3ds-max/features/new Seems pretty underwhelming… Again!!

If it fixes that I am happy. But the disappearing bug could also occur while looking at the object from a medium range.

[image] Material Nodes in Blender for V-Ray 3.0 Well, I guess that sounds a bit better after a deeper explanation. What kind of things could Python do to make max more powerful. I’m not really a programmer but it would be interesting to know. There was python support before. There is a whole n…

We’re a small place with one sloppy coder (me) so a basic shotgun implementation out of the box would be perfect for me and as you say it’s full python and not a wrapper so it’s a good opportunity to convert everything over to a more universal language!

[image] Render times getting longer In admittedly quick testing this does not seem to be the case for me. A in progress scene with about 900,000 polys averages about 70-80fps in 2016 (using the shaded mode) and about 30-40 in 2017 (using the performance display mode which I think is the equivale…

I’ve been testing it a bit this morning and it’s kinda weird… I managed to have 240 mil polygons and 4000 objects… still responds in “Performance” mode and about 8 fps… But if i have a single object with 20mil it’s really slow, like 5 fps, and max 2015 is faster.

My initial testing seems pretty promising. Booleans might actually be worth using now, for the first time ever!

What about the asset browser? Looked pretty nice. I hadn’t seen that before. I’ve been using Connector by DesignConnected. Works awesome for drag 'n drop propping from my prop library. It will be interesting to see how 2017 compares. Then again, it’s such a pain to migrate from one version to the ne…

Have you guys heard that the Snap feature is broken? … Same thing every time, how can they brake something that has been working for years…
