Title: Material Converter unusable
Post by: aaouviz on 2021-04-06, 08:12:02

The latest daily build for Max really f**ks up the scene materials when using the corona converter. It's basically unusable now whereas previously it worked perfectly...

I figure it's got something to do with the converter being a bit confused about when to apply metal/non-metal to legacy materials.

I can show some example if you wish, but hopefully this has already been discussed or discovered?

Usually better to just go ahead and post example images / video, if not just because other users might not yet be familiar with the issue as you've described it.

Sure thing. Please see attached... I'll make another post showing the materials compared.

I used (what I deem to be) the default settings for material conversion... also attached

Hi Guys,

We're working on improving the converter as currently there are a few issues as you've noticed.

Would you be able to send over this scene (pre conversion) so we can make sure it converts these materials correctly?

Cheers,

Rowan
