(arnold) How can I render a volume shader without a background, whith the displaement still works?
Hello! My question is relativly simple. I created some sort of cool thing with a volume shader on a sphere, and a displacement map (fractal) on it. It renders fine when there is a background (either the sky or a plane). But right when I hide the sky background making the background transparent, the effect of the… -
Re: mixing 3dsmax (arnold) rounded corners shader baking with traditional highpoly to lowpoly baking
Arnold updates have to be downloaded separately unless there's an actual version update to Max, in which case AD usually bundles the latest stable release of MaxToA in it. As far as OP's question goes, there's usually no problems mixing either floaters or subdivision meshes with round edge workflows, Arnold's round edge… -

Arnold aiNormalMap node doesn't appear in graph editor after creation / connection
I've set up a simple script to create an arnold standard surface shader and connect a few nodes for selected objects. Creating file nodes and connecting them seems to work fine for me. However when I try to create an aiNormalMap node and connect it, it won't appear in the graph..only in the attribute editor for the… -
Displacement From ZBrush to Arnold (Maya) gets twirly when animating facial rig
Hi Polycounters :) This is my ever message here after ghosting for a while and this place is the best. I'm an animation student, working on my first ever 3D short movie. I made a model, and I've recently added a facial rig which works fine (for a first timer). I wanted to move towards my next step which is adding a… -
