[Max] Bug Reporting / Re: Chaos Cosmos in 3ds 2025 has texture problem.

Hey, I can't repro this on my end.


Can you make sure that you are the updated version of Cosmos?

click on the three dots in cosmos then go to "about" then see which version you have.

Also from the screenshots you have posted, it seems like you have launched one cosmos from Corona toolbar and second cosmos browser from V-Ray toolbar as the material shows vray nodes not corona.

[Max] I need help! / Re: Unwram and uvw problem

« on: 2024-08-13, 17:29:45 »

Hi!
I'm going mad because of that, and i don't know if this problem is a general problem or maybe I am doing something wrong. I added an unwrap map to straighten lines on material. On the view everything is ok but on the render nothing working- nor my unwrap or uvw, even if I want to just scale with uvw. Nothing changes. Can you help me why this unwram not working?

I working on 3dsmax 2025 and the newest corona. I've tried on max 2024 but I have the same problem.
btw. sorry for my English.

Hello, is only our office experiencing license problems, it shows that license nodes are available but Corona in 3Ds Max doesn't accept it and shows error -197 or -98.

Please send a ticket to our team for any licensing related issues.

[Max] I need help! / Re: Help to create metal texture

« on: 2024-08-06, 12:25:26 »

Yes, correct you can use noise on both roughness and bump....I will advise to use the mix node with your noise and then use it in roughness so you can control its overall effect on reflectivity. You can also turn down its effect from the maps section as well. It will take a bit trial and error to achieve what you are going for but overall this is the way. You can further use some layered shader to addsome subtle dirt, dust and grunge effect but if its a product shoot then you would not want to do this for a cleaner look so it all comes down what you want to achieve. :)

what you are doing is correct. Right now you are using a bitmap...if you want a little more control then you can also use uber OSL noise with UVW transform to create the same brushed look. Both approach is good as long as you are getting your desired results. It all depends on how close the camera is going to be and how much detail you actually need.

have you tried finding something similar in Cosmos? Is there any reference to better understand what you are looking for?

Hi,

This is because you are overriding Tone mapping operators from Camera.

Regarding the cursor changing appearance, can you explain it a bit more what is exactly happening?
