Title: Connecter vs. Project Manager
Post by: Ryan.Schuman on 2019-06-19, 20:05:33

Asset Management Question...

After years of being in product visualization, I'm starting to get more into archviz and/or work that is requiring more asset management (instead of burying things into project folders, which works fine for product-viz work). 

I'm seeking advice for a good asset management system for Max.  Since I'm working on this personally, I'll be storing all of my assets locally on a dedicated HDD that would be used in scenes (models, materials, proxies..etc).  I've come across Connecter and Project Manager.  Does anyone have any recommendations on these or workflow resources geared more for archviz?

Cheers,

I go with Project manager, it gives more tools, obejct libray, Material library, texture,hdri and ies library, Plus the batch render and relink tool has a lot to offer, the support is out of this world, we use it at he office at the heart of our process on arqrenderz. Highly recommend it.
