Re: Ysalex Anatomy Practice Thread (nsfw)
Thanks guys. RaxorB I have been a fan since your exstatic dump, so I really appreciate it. Stevston, I use an IMM brush very similar to this one by Jonathan Nascone, a very talented polycounter (JnasconeArt) and gracious enough to share his IMM brush. http://www.jonathannasconeart.com/#!portraits/c14cx Its awesome.

Re: create lightmap atlases in Max
Try Flatiron: http://www.texturebaking.com/ It unwrappes you the lightmap UV-Set in a decent way an you can use your mentalray light setup to bake all the stuff. You also can set up a MR sun-system and render it to textures. There are lots of tutorials out there. Iwould use a script because I dont have time to bother a lot… -
Re: Lighting Problems using FG and GI (3ds max)
Firstly, You'd be better off posting questions like this over at 'My Mentalray' As for a solution you can try these: 1:Looks like your GI Photons radius is set too low. try increasing it. I would suggest you study up on GI if your planning on using it much. its quite a pain in the butt. 2:Alternatively, switch off GI and… -
Re: ANSWERED: Quixel for Arnold, Vray in Maya
I've used quixel generated maps in arnold, vray and mentalray. They gave almost identical result with real time engine, such as toolbag and unreal, without any tweaking. The cpu renderer could even give better result with extra light bounces, sampling, etc. It's physical-based and I think they're pretty much cross… -
Re: Render to Texture Normal Map Incorrect results (Not HP - LP Baking)
When using VRAY; all the maps are appropriate VRAY materials, likewise for Corona and MentalRay (VrayMtl, CoronaMtl, A&D respectively) The environments are also set to their appropriate maps (VrayHDRI for Vray, etc.) All maps are properly gamma corrected too. I'd be very inclined to think it's a map or material issue if… -
Re: Vray for Maya Normal Map Problem
Yeah it sucks something like this is still a problem in current times. If you find anything specifically for Arnold let me know though! =] However you can still get MentalRay from Nvidia right? https://forum.nvidia-arc.com/showthread.php?16283-Now-Available-Mental-Ray-for-Maya-2018 I've just downloaded and installed it.… -
Re: 3dsmax always grabing distance geometry when baking
This is hacky and may need some testing before you trust it but It seems to work just fine. Make an wedged clinder inside the object to occlude the other side. Add the cylinder to the list of render meshes. Switch your renderer to menatal ray and add an A&D material to the occluder. Switch back to Scanline and render. The… -
Re: Lights as a particle
I don't know if this will work for max particles (I think it work for XSI particles) but here's a mentalray shader that might help... http://www.mymentalray.com/mymr_shaders/shaders.htm go to 'Ray Control' section and grab ctrl_objectlights, you're on your own to see if it works or not though. There is a small tutorial on… -

SSS scaling issues?
Ok using Maya2008, mentalray with the misss fast skin shader to render this baby out. My problem is when zoomed out, the subsurfacescattering kills the detail of the normalmap, however when zoomed in it looks fine. Full body shot, there is hardly any detail http://visupoint.com/unleashed/ceraR1.jpg zoomed in:…
