Here is a filter to convert baseColor/Metallic/roughness to Vray/Corona/Redshift/Arnold This filter is now by default in SD library (search for PBR converter). Limitations: - in Vray/Corona the fresnel is colored, it's not in SD - a 100% black metal renders black/no reflection in Vray/Corona, in SD the fresnel is still…
Arnold is developed independent of the Max dev team. You can just download and install the latest Max2A, which features the latest Arnold core. Grab it from here for Max 2019; https://www.arnoldrenderer.com/arnold/download/#3dsmax
Can specular/glossiness textures be exported from Substance Designer in a way that would work with Vray/Arnold/Clarisse? I can see the options when exporting from Painter, but in Designer specular/glossiness template says "This workflow is not compatible with offline renderers such as Vray or Arnold." Is there a…
I'm experiencing an issue with Arnold GPU rendering in Maya. When I render a scene it seems like Arnold is making a very low usage of the GPU ( between 1% and 4%. This is what the task manager shows. Anyone having the same issue?

Hi All, I know it's early days, but with the new Arnold 5 and Arnold Standard shader the current export presets aren't correct. Is there someone out there who figured out what to use now, as the new shader leans more towards the PBR workflow. cheers! rob
We need rendering services for our 3d animation project. Part 1: Rendering itself is a small part. (Maya + Arnold) - studios/ those who already have renderfarm services to provide. Part 2: We are also looking for developers who can assist us in setting up our local servers for the next phase of our project. Knowledge of…
I am having difficulty creating light in maya using Arnold. Should be a simple thing but for some reason my render is pitch black even with skydome in. Weird part is outside the skydome, which is the container box of my scene shown above is properly displayed in the Arnold renderer. Any ideas how to fix this problem? Also…
Hey everyone, I've been learning how to render in Arnold but I can't seem to find a good tutorial that talks about making procedural crevice or dirt texture (e.g. concave surfaces get a different colour than convex). I have found this: https://vimeo.com/134311814 - but I don't think it really covers what I'm asking. Is…
