3dsmax: Maxwell rendering. Now it is time for play with maxwell - put camera Maxwell Target in. When our main scene is finished it would be nice to have some. To run the Benchwell test, simply open Maxwell. And will skip this download. Then it automatically runs the Benchwell test, rendering the provided scene.

June 25, 2015 We are very honored to introduce Toni Fresnedo to the blog this week. Toni is an extremely talented and experienced user of and Maxwell Render, and provides visualization services as well as distance/online training. Toni lives and works in beautiful Barcelona, Spain. Check out his awesome work here on his. Thanks for the tutorial Toni! The key to creating realistic is in the reflections and the modelling.

As with all reflective materials, it’s very important that the environment is as real as possible. The illumination of the scene is also essential: HDRI is probably the best option although others such as Maxwell’s should not be overlooked.

And it’s important to always model your objects with real thickness. Maxwell Render allows us to create basic glass (image on the right) or more detailed glass (image on the left) very quickly and easily with amazing results, thanks to its and the way it calculates light. In this article I will explain the steps to create glass materials, starting with a basic glass and then adding additional touches to get to more detailed effects. 1. OPEN THE SIMBALL One of the components of Maxwell Render is: a sophisticated scene editor with a full 3D environment. Includes a sample scene (the Simball scene) designed specifically for testing any type of material, including transparent and translucent materials like glass. If you are not familiar Studio, you might like to refer to the default layout map below to help orientate yourself around the panels. I will also add notes in italics for those who are new to the Studio layout or to Maxwell in general.

We begin by opening the scene, so go to File >Library >scenes >simball >simball_v2. We will use it as the starting point for our work.

CREATE A NEW MATERIAL To create a material, right-click on the panel ( top left in the default layout) and select New Material >Custom. When the new material appears on the list, you can right click to rename it. The material will now be active in the however this does not automatically assign it to the object. To assign the material, select Test Object in the Object panel ( middle right in the default layout), then right-click and select Assign Material, then scroll to the name you gave your newly created material. Alternatively, just drag the new material onto the object directly.

LAUNCH MAXWELL FIRE Now hit the FIRE button in the Maxwell shelf to launch (the interactive preview renderer) in a floating window. This will give you immediate feedback about all the changes that you are going make to the new material. You can also switch a main window panel to a FIRE display, but I recommend using a floating window, since this provides more options and frees up space for other on-screen elements in the main window.

SET REFLECTANCE COLOR In the, in the Properties rollout, change the colour swatches next to Reflectance 0 and Reflectance 90 to pure black. These swatches enable you to apply a tint to light reflected directly from the surface and reflected at a glancing angle. This is useful when recreating objects like pearls.

By editing them to any desaturated color, like black, you are therefore applying no tint on the reflections, which is what you need for glass. SET ROUGHNESS In the rollout, set the value to between 0 and 5 for smooth, shiny glass, or between 5 and 30 for rough glass. Back in the Properties rollout, choose an overall color for your glass by setting the color swatch. For the first test below I have used HSV: 33/224/210.

Controls the color of light when it passes through a transparent material. The Transmittance swatch represents the color of the light when it has reached the Attenuation distance. We will set this next. SET ATTENUATION DISTANCE You will have noticed that the material doesn’t look transparent yet.
