Hello, There are several different ways in which we can implement this, and we would like to get some input before choosing one of them. If you can put your vote for this, it will be very helpful. Some notes: *) Rendering of MetaSL shaders is likely to be slower than rendering native V-Ray materi…

I guess my point is that it’s hard to vote between 1 and 3 because we cant see the difference in either look or time at this point, and it seemed to me that they are equivalent in that there is no user level of control over that difference anyway. Do you have examples so we could make a meaningful …

Yep, I can try to make some examples in the next few days. Best regards, Vlado

Option1 would be useful if you used different renderers and wanted to have a consistent look, but Option2 would be better if you weren’t, because of the speed (i’m guessing). Why couldn’t one write a MetaSL shader with the same flags that hook into VRay? What options of the VRay shader would be miss…

We have a Auto-Cad Architecture > 3D max File link relationship most of the time in our firm. it’s always annoying that when the model comes into max it’s given a MAX texture, it would BE AMAZING if they converted into Vray Materials right away, Auto-cad glass to Vray glass, that “Chip” to a decent …

I’ve been requesting this for years, sadly it seems it’s against some people’s religion

We do have quite a large library already assembled; if and when it will see the light of day remains to be seen… Best regards, Vlado

[image] Ocean shader We do have quite a large library already assembled; if and when it will see the light of day remains to be seen… Best regards, Vlado What is the problem then? Is there anything we can do to “make it happen”?

Even more amazing would be if that library could be accessed within Revit as well, with a seamless transfer into Max! :smiley: Impossible, Vlado?

I voted for 2 simply because the models I am getting from our designers tend to have Autodesk materials, so I am thinking this is the way Revit is set up. Without knowing Revit I am wondering if it is going to be difficult to get the designers to switch to MetaSL materials, when they are used to wo…
