Hello,

I've had this problem a couple of times now.
Is this a bug or are some settings responsible for this?

Off-Topic / office/working chair

« on: 2021-02-25, 15:38:50 »

Hello,

My back is demanding a seating upgrade and I was wondering if you guys have any tips or experiences you can share.
The sheer volume of office chairs is so big that I have successfully avoided this topic for too long it seems.

Any help greatly appreciated!

[Max] Resolved Bugs / big scene handling

« on: 2021-02-15, 13:34:58 »

I have a pretty big file of a city here. (~ 28 million polys). Simple setup with an override material & sun/sky.
In IR the performance drops significantly, to the point where its not really useable anymore. (see corona_ir.mkv).
Normal Render performance is fine again as you can see in the screenshot.

In Vray IR performs with no issues.

[Max] Resolved Bugs / volume grid inside global volume env

« on: 2020-11-10, 12:14:50 »

I thought this has been resolved, or am I missing something?
The borders of my cvolume grid are clearly visible when a global volume material is enabled.
