3ds Max :: Massive Render To Texture / File Extension And Gamma Value
Sep 24, 2012
I have to bake all textures in a 3DSmax / mental ray scene.I'm using "Render to texture" and I have 2 big problems :
1) How can I change the type of image file ? When only one object is selected I can access to "File Name and Type", but when all my scene objects are selected this option is not available. So the baked textures are .tga
2) The baked textures have a gamma value = 1. It's too dark, and I want a 2.2 gamma value.

Is it possible to render to texture with the gamma set to 2.0?
I am working with Vray and i set the gamma to 2.0, the render works fine, but the Render to Texture seems to be bypassing and neglecting this value set in the Vray/Color Management, and the Gamma LUT settings, and it renders dark textures.

The same scene, same settings, produce 2 very different outputs in max 2011 and 2012, render to texture for normals is currently useless in max 2012.
The blue one is a correct tangent normal map created from a sphere in max 2011, the colored one is the the one created inside max 2012 from the same objects and settings, and the last is another sample of normals generated in max 2012.

i'm experimenting with texture baking / render to texture. I've setup a simple scene with a box and a sphere and a omni light, no exposure, mental ray. I've rendered to texture the "complete map" for both. Then i've switched to default scanline renderer, put the baked materials to 100 self illumination, but the result (on the right) is more saturated and darker of the original render (on the left).
I've tried with different setups, but the result is the same.

I am trying to bake a light map by using render to texture. However, for some reason, whenever I render in a texture higher than256x256, it cuts off some portion of the map at the top. I do have the unwrap all in the box. This seems to just happen at random. I had this happen in 3dsmax 2013 on windows 7. I now have windows 8 and 3ds max 2014, but it is still doing it. I am, however, using the save from the former.

I am trying to send a file to a newspaper for print. Only thing is Illustrator makes the files massive.
A normal newspaper ad ends up to be 58MB when converted to PDF. When i make something in Indesign it only exports to about 8MB for PDF.

Any good 3d party texture baker. They bake hi-res things forever and neigther can bake complex procedural shaders and details with transparency properly.
Is there any 3d party render that could be considered for texture baking? I tried Vray but it's even slower in baking. Is there anything other to try? I mean something with a speed of Modo texture baking for example?
Looking for uick render settings for texture baking? Mental rey or scanline. Prerhaps I should degerade or avoid something not tailored for texture baking. What would be a prefered way for indirect illumination or ambient occlusion? Is there a renderer that would respect edited vertex normals on low poly shells while doing baking?

I'm trying to bake a material using render to texture dialog. The issue is that whenever i render a diffuse map, it only renders the faces visible in the viewport im working in. The rest of the uv faces are rendered black. All the tutorials i look at never have this problem. What's the issue?

I've rendered out hundreds of these before in 3DS max 2011 with no issue but in 2012 and 2013 the background colour of my ambient occlusion renders are black instead of being white for all the objects selected except for the first one. What's going wrong?
I set the colour to white in the render to texture window and if I select a single model it works fine but if I select the same model plus others, the first one is saved fine but the others all have a black background. I'm saving them as TGAs which is my preferred option and as I said has been working in 2011.

For my 3D scene, I have to use a texture file on the floor. If I use the only file, than it looks really boring and below par. What I want is, I want to generate some (around 6-8) texture files within the original texture file - so the colors of all the texture files remain same but only the texture varies.Likewise there are more than 500 texture files and I just can't do them manually. Is there any way out to do this in Photoshop?

I saw a max demo at a show where they shattered the wall in a video/photo. The artist baked the background image to three planes (floor and two walls) like shown in the illustration, and then exploded one of these planes. It involved some kind of texture baking, but I didn't catch the whole process.

I can't seem to get max to render to texture properly with network rendering. it renders just fine on one machine, but whenever i run it through the network option it saves the wron part of the strip.
I have tried it with several different machines and several different files and none of them work.

I have got troubles with textures in the new Inventor 2013. When I try to programmatically change a texture in a render style of a part (no matter, whether I use an existing render style or create a new one), when I set the texture file name, Inventor throws an exception "Bad argument". In Inventor 2012, it worked. How textures should be set in the new Inventor?
Sample
PartDocument partDoc = ... some initialization
RenderStyle newRenderStyle = partDoc.RenderStyles.Add("newRenderStyle");
newRenderStyle.TextureFilename = newTexFilename; //this throws an exception bad format, even if the texture is in the Inventor textures directory
partDoc.ActiveRenderStyle = newRenderStyle;

I created a file in Photoshop and was saving it along the way as a layered PSD file. When I went to open it a few days later, it wouldn't open and said that it was an '8 file'. What happened, and how do I fix it? It had all the design layers I needed for another project.

I'm learning how to create extension (flex - extension builder) for Illustrator and how to make it communicate with a plugin.
The samples provided in the SDK detailed how to load /unload extension from a menu item from Illustrator, and how to add / remove EventListeners to make the magic happen.
to sum up, this is something like that:
1- click on the menu item
2- load extension
3- add listeners
4- do your stuff......
5- remove listeners
6- unload extension
Basically my plugin is a module/service which is in charge of dealing with / modifying artwork tree. It has no User Interface.
My extension will have a user of this service.
What I would like to do is to load my extension as soon as my plugin is loaded, and unload the extension when the plugin will be unloaded.
Or notify when extension is loaded or unloaded.
Is that possible and hw could I achieve that?

I have a pc with Windows 7 Home Premium Edition, 64 bit and a Raedeon (<sp?) processor.
Recently I downloaded a trial period for Adobe Photoshop CS6.
I made a New Folder when I downloaded the software ~ if that means anything.
My problem is that I need to save files as .eps but when I go to Save As it is not listed. I checked the list of extensions and Ps does have it available. So, I am beside myself wondering why it is not in my drop down list of extensions.
I have searched the FAQ's to no avail. However, I am not certain I have been asking my question in a manner in which I would be able to narrow down a relative result.

know of a conversion strategy to get a DEM file that has IMG extension into Map 2008?
We do have Arcview, which will open the IMG file (ERDAS Imagine raster format?), but it will only save this as standard raster formats (jpg, tiff). I am doubtfull that one can use these formats as a DEM in Map.

When saving any file, Photoshop saves only the filename without the extension- i must manually add the extension in finder- nightmare! Chat sucks so here I am. I have uninstalled and reinstalled but it still doesn't work??

I've downloaded and installed the 3.6 upgrade at least a dozen times ant Adobe still says I need the upgrade.
I've down loaded and installed the DNG Converter7.1 and my Nikon D7000 .nef files still wont open. I tried to change the .nef file extension to .raw file extensions.
I'm really getting sick of LR3, and I sure's heck am not willing to buy LR4 when Gimp is free!
They load instantly in Gimp.

This might be a simple preference setting but I can't seem to make it work. In CS5 and I go to "save for web" like I would when I was on CS4. A lot of times I will click on an existing file so that file name will auto fill the new save name and then I'll add to it.
But now when I click on a file I get the file name and ext, how can I get just the file name to show in the input box and not add the file ext to the name?

We’re using the “save as” function in Adobe Photoshop CS5, and it’s not automatically including the file extension at the end of the name because our file naming convention (M##.B##.F##) uses periods. This is an issue which was already discussed in the forum [URL] ..., but there didn’t appear to be a suggested fix.

I recently opened a .pdf document into CorelDraw x5 using the pdf extension in available file types to find the file.
Now when i try to use the normal open command to open a file the cdr is not available in the available file types region, everything else is still there except CDR.
To open a coreldraw file now has to be done in file manager.

I'm trying to make an application that would take a drawing(dwg) and convert it to pdf. Since I can do it directly in autocad 2013, i presume that there should be a function in the API, that i could use to do the same. So far, i tried with AcadDocument.export(filename, FileExtension, AcadSelectionSet) with no luck. I cannot put PDF as a valid file extension.
Here's my code
Public sub SaveToPDF(ByVal psfilename As String)
Dim oAutocad As AutoCAD.AcadApplication = New AutoCAD.AcadApplication()
Dim oAcadDoc As AutoCAD.AcadDocument = oAutocad.Documents.Open(psfilename, True)
Dim sFolder As String = psfilename.Substring(0, psfilename.LastIndexOf("") + 1)
[code]....

Ive recently upgraded to the new GIMP 2.8 and I cant seem to save files as anything other than gimp project files. I open the extension box to select the file type and there just isnt the option anymore. Do i have to reinstall GIMP or should I revert back to 2.6? I wouldnt think they would get rid of the ability to save in different formats so there must be a problem somewhere.
