Loading render preset = DMC default

V-Ray V-Ray for 3ds Max Issues
1

Hello

Im using universal settings in a scene. So DMC = 1-100 etc
Problem is that everytime 3dsmax render batch loads a new camera/render preset it changes universal DMC settings back to defaul = 1-4

I was wondering if i can counter this issue.
If not, if its a 3dsmax problem, how can i still have the same universal settings quality while having DMC set to defaul 1-4? Having an higher brute force subdivs value will do the trick?

Thanks in advance.

Can you give me some more detailed steps to reproduce the issue?

Its pretty easy to reproduce this.

3dsmax2011 and vray 2.0

In vray render setup. Change DMC value to something like 1-100, and below save render preset to a file. Load the same render preset and check the DMC values. It goes back to default: 1-4.

This is what happens when using render batch to creat several still images in a row. Each time it changes camera and loads the preset, it ignores the DMC value and allways overides it with default. So in the end, its impossible to use universal settings using render batch.

I can post screens if needed but ive just formated computer and currently installing everything fr scratch.

This happened to me using 3dsmax2008 and 2011. In 2010 this issue didnt happen. As for 2009, ive no idea.
All makes me believe that this is a 3dsmax problem, thats why i ask what settings do i need to change in universal settings when using DMC in default and still want the same quality with DMC 1-100?

Worked fine for me in 3ds Max 2011 when I tried it just now. Are the other parameters loaded correctly?

Yes, every other parameter loads correctly.

This happens to me at work, my colleague here and my other computer at home. All 3dsmax 2011.

Thanks anyway Vlado.

Is it possible that you are using 3ds Max Design 2011?

Nope, ive got the normal one.

But my colleague has 3dsmax design 2011 installed and has the same exact problem.

Vlado, if this question could be answered it would be great!

How can i still have the same universal settings quality while having DMC set to default 1-4? Having an higher brute force subdivs value (like 20) will do the trick?
