UDIM texturing in 3dsMax and Vray Help

jaker3278

Hi i need your guys help i cant get UDIM textures to work inside max and vray. The way i am going about it is though using a composite node as described in 
http://www.neilblevins.com/cg_education/multiple_uv_tiles/multiple_uvs_tiles.htm

I've found startlingly little information about both 3ds Max Multi-tile/multi-uv-shell workflow and I'm having a lot of trouble getting things to work with the info I do have.

hears what i have so far and you can see the problem im having. In the third image you can see that when i offset the layer by 1 in the U direction the bitmap is no longer visible. Can some one whose done Multi tile texturing please help.

you dont need the composite node...
vray is able to read the UDIMS...

just type in texturename<UDIM>.tga

vray will do the rest...

heyy! Is it possible to use this method with vray on 3dsmax to load different displacement maps to different coordinates?
I can't do this, so, if it is possible, does anyone could help me?
Thanks

Just use the udim tag in the filename.

well, when I try to load KEN<UDIM>.exr it says the file doesnt exist =(

Your files need to be named like this --> KEN.1001.EXR, KEN.1002.EXR

And you need to use the VRayHDRI node to load the textures in max. 
I could be wrong i used max the last time 2014.

I used HDRI map. unfortunatelly, UDIMfor displacement isnot working,it just take the first map 1001 and applies to all the body =(

It should work. Report a bug if not.

I made the test with colors right now,it works, except with DISPLACEMENT,it continues failling, only the head is loaded and affects the entire body...

Go to the Chaosgroup forum an fill a bug. They do a good job in fixing it.
