[Max] Resolved Bugs / Bad resulto Uvw randomizer

« on: 2023-02-12, 10:59:34 »

Hi All,
i am trying a very simple test with CoromaUvwRandomizer map (see attachment) , a plane 400x400cm with uvwmap planar map of 100x100cm.
I would like to get a randomly rotated 100x100cm map repeat on plane, but I can't get the expected result, am I doing something wrong?

thank you

It's just a third factor viewed from another perspective ;]

yes, it can be consudered a derivation of third factor.

The blurriness of a shadow depends on combination of 3 factors - size of a light source, distance from light source to the object that is casting shadow and the distance from the object that is casting shadow to the object that is receiving shadow.

Another factor is the angle of the light source  rispect to the plane of surface that recieve shadows.

Similar problems here,
borrowing license for 3 nodes ,2 are unusable for some reason that i don't know, i open support ticket, but untill monday i will not have response i suppose.
I had to complete my jobs....

Iit's not the first time i have licensing problems.

if you go to see the procedure to activate an offline node it is really anachronistic.

good luck

hi,
someone know how add 1 node to license server?
I try to use a new computer node added to local lan, but not work,
I can see from workstation the node address but i receive this message after 1 minute:
---------
Slave '192.168.1.41' reported error:
Corona license not found.
The image may come out wrong (e.g. darker or missing objects) because of this.

[Max] I need help! / How to change only the root of the paths

« on: 2022-10-15, 09:30:56 »

Hi all,
there is a script that change all the internal paths of materials inside  .max file?
Examples:
E:\ folder\texrure.jpg  become \\server\folder\texture.jpg
E:\ other_folder\other_texture.jpg  became \\server\ other_folder\other_texture.jpg

Basically I would like to change only the root of the paths.

I use  Asset Tracking toggle inside max but is not so usefull for that specific function.

thank you

It considers the pivot of the element, not its bounding box. So any element whose pivot is outside of the defined area will disappear

Isn't this the normal behavior of chaoscatter?
You don't need Chaos Scatter Edge Trimming for that.

No, it is not.

I know it take a tiny bit of getting used to... to explain:

Scatter places OBJECTS on a surface.

An object can have multiple ELEMENTS inside of it.

Scatter with edge trimming on removes the ELEMENTS of each object outside of the desired bounds.

Again, check my screenshot of the cubes scattered. See how some cubes are removed?

Sorry to reduce it in such a simple manner, but hopefully this has helped.

Now i undesrstand what Chaos Scatter Edge Trimming do.
thanks aaouviz
