I noticed out of nowhere that now there appears to be a stark difference between the render frame window (interactive and final renders) and the jpegs that is output from the renderer. That never happened before now.  (I just returned from a long rip and started rendering again with a new processor and hard drives installed. I bought some animal models online.)

I have attached an image with the window frame and the jpeg next to each other. Any ideas?

I reset the scene re-imported the animal, and it works - the output is the same as the frame window. Who knows why this happened...

It's the gamma issue. If you saved the image with automatic gamma and it looks different than in the VFB, then most likely your gamma settings are wrong. Unfortunately they are not exposed in 3ds Max, but you can type
Code: [Select]
FileOutGamma = 2.2 in maxscript listener window and it should fix the issue.
