Post by: LorenzoS on 2019-12-16, 12:28:30

Hi all,
as from subject, sometimes the Lightmix setting is not reloaded reopening the .max file.
There is a way to solve it?

Do you mean that LightMix colors are reset to white and intensities are reset to 1 if you open a file which was saved with different LightMix values?

I don't know regarding the colors, but yes the intensity are reset to 1 when i open a file which was saved with different LightMix values.
I suppose that happen when i insert manually a lightmix element.

The last 2 elemets are insert manually by me, and the last one "infinito" is reset to 1.

V6 rc1 3dsmax 22020.
-open files,
-change one or more value in ligthMix and close the files,
closing the files max dont ask to save the changes so when i reopen the files, the last setting in ligthMix is lost.

Hi,

I have just tried this and 3ds Max asks me to save the file when I try to close or reset 3ds max.

Can you provide some video showing me the issue?

Rowan, can you try to choose "new files" instead of close directly the max file?

Hi,

Thanks for the video, it looks like it only happens when rendering with IR.

If you render with the production renderer then you will get the prompt to save the file.

I have just tested and it behaves the same in v5, however I'll see if there is something we can do about this.

In the mean time a workaround would be to just save the file before you reset it (File->Save). In this case the lightmix values are stored and correct the next time I load the scene.

Cheers,

Rowan
