[Max] I need help! / Re: issues with Corona bitmaps

Unfortunately we've tried changing that option as well as any others we can find but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Neither does the size or file type of the bitmap. I've attached the viewport settings we have + a comparison between the corona & regular bitmap

[Max] I need help! / issues with Corona bitmaps

« on: 2023-02-17, 16:07:45 »

We're currently having an issue where corona bitmaps appear low resolution in the viewport, in particular when plugged into the environment tab. We have tried upping the pixel count under the texture display resolution in the viewport configurations but this doesn't seem to change anything. (for reference this does work if we use a regular bitmap but not the corona version).

we also seem to be having an odd issue with the tile setting. For the images we use we have to set the tiling to -1 but if the bitmap refreshes (either by manually reloading it or closing and re-opening max) it automatically flips the image but doesn't alter the tile value. (again this issue doesn't occur with a regular bitmap)

This is all part of our verified camera match set up where the position of the environment map is in reference to the camera rotation and manually aligned to survey points by matching them in the viewport so this has become a bit of a problem.

We have used this process without issues for at least 3 or 4 years and this problem is somewhat recent but is consistent on all our office workstations. I'm not sure if its possible an issue with max 23?
