[Max] I need help! / [Solved] Selected object
« on: 2023-05-31, 18:29:14 »
Hi guys, until few weeks ago I worked in 3dsMax 2021, but now I'm using 2023 and I encouter a problem. In 2021 when I had an object selected, it automatically appeared in the display toolbar no matter what it's position was (like screenshot01), but now in 2023, when I select an object, I have to find it myself in that toolbar (like screenshot02). Is that any setting that can change that in 2023?
Thank you!

Hi guys, i'm back with another issue. I started to denoise an image and the computer shutted down, then i restarted and tried to open the corona image, but this error hitted me.
I found this solving thing in a forum ("i think it was related to Preferences > tweaks > File I/O > enable direct reads... or the other one - Enable I/O canceling... or both of them") but I don't know where to look for these "Preferences > tweaks > File I/O > enable direct reads"
Thank you<

I tried to keep the materials in v-ray, but for example this curtain can't be rendered in Corona as a v-ray.
Thank you for your time!

[Max] I need help! / Corona Converter 2.02 error
« on: 2022-06-13, 16:34:58 »
Hi, I started to use Corona 7 (Hotfix 1) with 3dsMax 2021, and I encountered a problem; when I use Corona Converter for some vray materials, the converter is transforming them in metal or glass (even if the material is a fabric like in my ss), can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong in this process or how can I fix this.
Thank you so much!

[Max] I need help! / Disappearing smoothing
« on: 2020-04-28, 17:05:49 »
Hi guys, can someone please let me know why all the objects in the scene are loosing their smoothing? I even had an object that I imported, created as a sphere that looked perfectly fine first time, but  when I opened 2nd time the 3dsmax, the sphere had only 20 segments from 200 left.

P.S. The problem wasn't always like this, started to happen one week ago.

Thank you!

Hi guys, I'm new with FP and I have two problems regarding distribution and paint.

1. How can I make FP to take the shape that I created?

2. When I'm trying to paint the surface always I have this problem with the XY surface.

The surface is a spline shape created after a plane modified with freeform.

Thank you!

My guess - photoshop->filter->sharpen :]

Maybe I'm wrong, but I believe that it might have also a bit of a motion blur, what do you think?

Yeah, the guy in the video optimized RAM by attaching multiple tree models together. This is a common workflow. I didn't do this, that's why RAM struggled. :)
32 GB of RAM used to be a standard some time ago. Now it's definitely closer to 64, and it is common to see workstations with 96 GB and more. Also, RAM is really cheap now.

thanks maru, i'll go for another 32gb, seems to be more and more difficult to work only with 32gb

Hey M_SON, so when working with heavy scenes, optimization is the key.

Make sure to use proxies as mentioned before by sprayer, instancing of identical objects with differences in translation (scaling,rotation,etc.). And always focus the high-detail assets/textures close to your camera, keeping more optimized LOD's for the background if possible. Also usage  of  corona/scattering where applicable is preferred than simple mesh distribution.

thank you GK, I'm using often CScatter, but sometimes because I wanna place different types of tree it's easily going up to 20mil, or a few weeks ago I had to use a ceiling lamp and that lamp had 60mil polys (will be a good idea to use ProOptimizer in that type of situations, or the object will be destroyed?)

You can't infinitely add models in one scene, if you making huge scene you need to optimize it, make it small and light as possible to work with it, so you can use proxies, xref, convert textures to jpg etc. And yes you need much free space, otherwise it may harm your ssd and system
Your CPU is fine for making scene, because modelling and other staff in 3ds max work on single core, here you need cpu with high Hz and performance in single thread, but for rendering you need many cores CPU what often have less Hz and slow performance in single task.

You may add RAM if it's not enough for your scene.

The problems what you describes do not looks like from lack of RAM or disk space.
FBX to store texture need to tick option embed media at exporting. If there is no free space on C disk program will crash. If not enough Ram programs will work slow and may be not stable.
Do not forget to clear max files with script, imparted models may have garbage what may slowing down work

thank you sprayer, but I have 3 more question to your replay: 1. converting textures to jpeg, meaning that the textures that I'm using to be in a jpeg format? 2. I never saw an option to embed media at fbx exporting or the program just decide to do it or not regarding the disk space; 3. can you recommend me a good script to clear the files pls?
