Hello,

I dug up some samples from Archdaily website, and I'm trying to reproduce them in 3d for practice, so here is the firs one.

Did you precalculate UHD Cache?

To combine I use screen blending mode in AfterEffects with some manual gamma correction. I still have not figured out how exactly are lightmix passes mixed

[Max] I need help! / Re: How to check if object is corona proxy using maxscript?

« on: 2017-02-02, 00:38:02 »

This will select all Corona proxy objects in the scene:

select(for o in geometry where classOf o == cproxy collect o)

please note that if there is corona proxy in a closed group, entire group will be selected

It's another light (with it's own LightSelect pass) leaking from outside underneath the blinds. You can always use HDRI in your scene for that. When you arrange all the lights in your scene to LightSelect elements, HDRI will be only light left in the LightMix elemnet.

What I do is I export all the layers as EXR, and then I combine them in AE, that way I can choose which lights (or light combinations) to keep in finals. Here is a sample animation where I use 15 Lightmix layers in AE to change the order of light switching after everything is rendered. First half shows the final render output from max, and second half is play from AE. Please disregard all the noise since this is just a test preview from work in progress.

Try using CMasking_WireColor.
If you don't want to setup wire color manually for each object, you can use this script to randomize colors: http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/random-wire-color-tools

I did, bud they are ignoring me. Regardless, I'm giving up on them. I don't mind paying full price, but I don't want to support the "ignoring" attitude

Hi,

On the website (https://corona-renderer.com/prices-licensing/bonuses-discounts/) it is stated that discount for SigerShaders Corona Material Presets Pro | Max is valid until until 2015-09-30, but the code I have, expired on 2015-4-30 and does not work. How do I get a new code?

Cheers,

Hi,
In my experience my GT770 at home works faster than QuadroK4000 at work (3DSMAX 2013 and 2015)

Regarding CPUs, they are almost identical when it comes to using all cores (rendering) but in single core performance 5820 wins by 10%. Max uses only one core when working in viewport (according to my task manager)
