[Max] I need help! / Can't do perspective match

« on: 2023-09-13, 10:40:29 »

I have been trying to do perspective match in 3ds max. But I can't control the vanishing lines properly as shown in YouTube tutorials. It feels like every vanishing line is being affected if I move the handle of a vanishing line. I sometimes lose my reference object too. Can someone suggest me a good tutorial for perspective match or tell me what I am doing wrong? I will appreciate the help. Thank you! I have attached a GIF of how the vanishing line reacts.

[Max] I need help! / Tips on improving render quality

« on: 2023-08-23, 08:44:00 »

Hello good people! I am trying to render an exterior scene inspired by a reference. But I can't get the photorealistic, high-end look of the reference. Can someone suggest to me how I can improve my render quality?Material/resolution/lighting/detailing/etc.; what am I missing? I really appreciate any help you can provide. (It's kind of obvious, but still clarifying the black house is the reference and the brown one is my render.)

[Max] I need help! / Distortion around the stitch

« on: 2023-08-09, 11:30:03 »

Kindly notice the attachments. There is no distortion around the stitches in the model but when I render, there is distortion. Why is this happening? And how can I change this? Thank you.

[Max] I need help! / Material inconsistency

« on: 2023-05-25, 12:47:14 »

I applied a corona roof material here but it seems as if the roof is not aligned. But as you can see from the clay model it's a single consistent editable poly. I don't understand why this is happening. I will really appreciate any help you can provide.
Also, I cannot see this material in the viewport even after toggling the 'show shaded material in viewport' option. The rest of the material is fine.

[Max] I need help! / Animation render time

« on: 2023-01-19, 18:32:43 »

Hello,
I am trying my first animation project. It's a simple interior camera movement project. Total frames are 480 and the resolution is 1920*1080 and noise level set to 4%. I am confused about the render time per frame. It took me about 1 hour to render the first frame. It seemed unrealistic. I saved the uhd cache beforehand. I am wondering if this is normal or I have done something wrong. Can someone suggest me how I can reduce the render time?
Thanks in advance!

My pc configuration: i7 11700 8C/16T, Ram 32GB

[Max] I need help! / Problem with UVW mapping

« on: 2022-11-11, 06:43:29 »

I am having a problem with texturing. The map looks distorted. I tried UVW unwrapping. The checkered map looks fine. But the actual texture is distorted. How can I fix this? I have never used UVW unwrapping before. I might be doing something wrong.
Thank you!

[Max] I need help! / 4k resolution balanced setting to speed up render time

« on: 2022-10-12, 18:51:24 »

I am trying to achieve the same quality as in the attachment. It is 4k resolution and took too long to complete. Can someone suggest me a balanced rendering setting (noise level, pass limit, etc) or some other tips to speed up the rendering?
My PC has 11th gen i7 processor and 32GB of ram.
Thank you.

[Max] I need help! / Shows warning "Material type 'Missing Material' is not supported."

« on: 2021-11-18, 17:08:48 »

I imported a scene which was originally in the Vray renderer engine. I ran corona converter, relinked all the bitmaps. But it shows warnings and doesn't render the imported objects. I have attached screenshots to depict my problem.
Also, it renders those particular objects black when I use vray renderer.
Someone, please help me out. Thank you.
