View 6 Replies View Related3ds Max :: Rendering Same Scene Several Times - Material Replacement
Feb 12, 2013I'm working with a procedure to render the same scene (same camera position, same light, same lens, same output size, etc) several times due material change. The number of renderings of the same object may easily reach thousands because the scene objects may receive hundreds of different materials at the same time.
Due the scale and repetition of this render process I was wondering if there is a way to pre-render what doesn't change from render to render to try to speed up the process as much as I can. The ideal solution is to do the next Render by reusing all the calculations made previously (even if I have to save a temporary render info - not sure this is even possible inside 3ds Max).
The ideal world would be having a baked max file waiting just for the material replacements and quickly generate the rendered image as fast as possible.
I know some different material properties may affect light and shadows but I think 3ds Max already separate this Render step.
My aim is to automate this process reducing the overall rendering time without wasting resources to recalculate what haven't changed.
3ds Max :: Imported Xref Scene - All Objects Including Hidden Ones Displayed
Apr 28, 2013I have included a xref scene in another file and but the xref when rendered does not respect hidden layers, hidden object OR "do not render' option set in layer manager. In other words all of the objects including the hidden ones are displayed. How I can leave my reference objects and layers in my original scene but not display them if I include the file as an xref scene.

Revit :: Crash / Material (shading) Update On Imported SAT File
Aug 15, 2013I have an SAT file that I inserted into a Conceptual Mass Family and then loaded into a Revit project. I have changed the name of the object in the Object Styles/Imported Objects dialog and assigned a unique material to it as well.
When I load it into the project its generally fine, sections/plans/elevations/section boxes work fine. When I try to update the material settings or the material it retains the original material settings. After the second attempt at assigning a new material: Crash Error Unexpected something or other Shut down.
I opened the original Mass famiily and updated the material shading once and it worked fine. I did it again and: Crash Error Unexpected something or other Shut down.
This is not my first time to use this process. Probably the fiftieth time. However it is the first time I've used it in 2014 with the new(really old) improved (fixed) materials dialog.
Is there a bug or known issue in 14 vs. 13. Am I missing a hotfix? It works on 13.
Lightroom :: Imported Folder Not Showing Up In 4.1?
Sep 9, 2012I've imported my photos into Lightroom 4.1, running on Windows 7.
My photos are organized by Year, then Month. For example, I imported a directory "2011", which contains all my photos from 2011. There are sub folders for each month, such as "April 2011".
For some reason, the sub folder "September 2011" is not showing up.
I tried to re-import that directory, and all the photos are shown as already imported.
I also (accidentally) have a "September 2011" directory in a sub-folder in my 2012 photos. I tried to move this directory to 2011, but I'm told that the folder already exists. Why isn't it showing up under 2011?

Revit :: Material Library Not Showing Up
Feb 11, 2014I am using Revit 2013 and have built a material library for the company I work for. It has been working fine up until about an hour ago. Now when I try to open up the material library I created it says "No assets in this library". I can't figure out why there is nothing there. And I don't want to have to recreate all my materials I already created! I can still find the file in my folders and it says theres 3930 KB of information in the file. I included a picture of what my Assest Editor and Asset Browser show when I try to open my library.

Admittedly the file locations have changed but when opening the project I am prompted to locate media, which i do, the media is then found with no problems. The media is also present at the correct points on the time line, but it's the same logo problem.

Oct 7, 2013I am using inventor 2012 but the material library is not loading.Then i go to the Manage> Styles Editor> and clieck on color or material it only gives me the option of defualt.

Maya Modeling :: Cleaning Up Imported Objects
Oct 14, 2013 I'm trying to import a part from solidworks. I've tried opening the .SLDPRT file, converting to IGES (203 and 214), and STEP. All give the same result.
See below pictures - the Maya import has "dingleberries" where there should be a flat surface (i.e. some of the tubes extend when they shouldn't). I know imports are rarely perfect, and that's OK as long as I know how to clean things up. How can I trim off the extra surfaces that appeared after the import? I'd just use an extruded cut in SolidWorks, but I'm in a strange land with Maya.
First - the part looks like this in SolidWorks:

Lightroom :: Newly Imported Thumbnails Not Showing Previews
Jan 5, 2014Today when I was importing images off a memory card I noticed the thumbnails in library mode were not showing any previews, they were blank (gray) for only the recently imported items. My other folders' thumbnails are showing previews with no issue.
I am working in Lightroom 4. I am using Windows 8 on a HP laptop.
A couple of other notes about what I noticed...
1. In the import screen the thumbnails display the preview.
2. Once the import goes to the Library Mode - thumbnails are blank. Can only see the image number and any symbols indicating tags or changes to the image.
3. Loupe view I cannot get an image to appear.
4. In the Develop Mode if I click on a thumbnail down in the filmstrip (which are all blank) an image will appear in the work area and the filmstrip thumbnail will display a preview of the one I selected. The thumbnail preview will remain visible for a few moments after moving to a new image. Then it just goes blank again.
5. I was importing jpegs and dngs. Having the same problem with both of these today.
6. All the other thumbnails in folders that were in the catalog prior to today are visible and working normally.
newly imported images not displaying an image in the thumbnail whether it is in Library Mode, Loupe View, or Develop mode.
Maya Modeling :: Edit Faces Of Imported Model

Maya Modeling :: Material Forgets UV Space When Smoothing
Aug 17, 2011I have a model rigged with The Setup Machine and The Face Machine and a single material is applied to each of them. Not sure if the above is relevant, but when I tested this in a clean scene with just a sphere, everything was fine.
I then select a few faces and apply a new material to those faces. I smooth the mesh and the UVs are smoothed and the different materials appear where they should be. If I set the divisions on the polySmoothFace node to 2 or more the materials seem randomly placed across the mesh. The Uvs however, are smoothed correctly. So I then have to reassign the materials to the correct faces.
If I do one smooth mesh, then another separate smooth mesh, the materials are placed correctly.
Is this a bug or do you think something is wrong with my setup?

Maya Modeling :: Splitting Mesh Based On Material?
Apr 15, 2013I do sometimes buy some objects at Turbosquid that I download as .obj files.
They are represented as a single mesh object in Maya, however when I look the material of this mesh, I see different tabs representing the different sections of the mesh with the different materials (e.g. a duck would be seen as 1 mesh, but 1 material for the body, 1 for the left eye and 1 for the right eye).
How to split up this mesh in different meshes by material ?
3ds Max Modeling :: Polygon - Material IDs And Smoothing Groups Dialog
Sep 26, 2013I use the "Polygon: Material IDs" and "Polygon: Smoothing Groups" section (located in Editable Poly) a lot. I was wondering how I could break it off as its own floating dialog box.
Ideally it would be very similar to the Material Editor. Where I can hit a short cut key to bring it up and hide it. I can drag it around and move it to a second monitor or may be even minimize it Having both the Smoothing Groups and IDs in one dialog box would be ideal.

3ds Max Modeling :: Make Editable Mesh / Poly Transparent With Material
Dec 1, 2013Is there a way to make an editable mesh or poly somewhat transparent when a material is applied? Think of the material being a thin cloth such as nylon. You can't see directly through it, but it isn't like a thick material such as jeans etc. I also want to make this object deform like a balloon inflating, so I don't know if that will cause issues with transparency.
