3ds Max :: Bump Map Not Working With Mental Ray?
Jan 4, 2013I'm using the metallic preset under the arch and design for mental ray and i've added a scratch bump map. It shows perfectly on the material editor but doesn't show up at all on the actual rendered image.
I've attached the image to show you.
3ds Max :: Mental Ray Quality Settings?
Sep 26, 2011I have made several renders in the Scanline renderer, I've tried to capture as much detail as I can squeak out of it, setting it to the Catmull-Rom filter, Light Tracer, Max Star 2.5, and the like. It creates nice renders for game assets. However, if I switch it to Mental Ray, it seems that a lot of the details get washed out. Are there any 'base setting' to capture every nook and cranny better?

Feb 13, 2012Mental Ray keeps crashing out of memory during rendering. I guessing it's my jpeg images, becuase that's the only thing I am doing wrong. I didn't know what the set standard size it should be. I am using 2048x2048. I am not sure what the set standard is.
Updated my POST due to no replies.

3ds Max :: Mental Ray Out Of Memory Error
May 25, 2011How is it possible for Mental Ray to give me an out of memory error on a Windows 7 professional 64-bit machine using the 64-bit Max Design? I have 4GB of physical memory, but whenever a program needs more memory Windows allocates virtual memory to it, so theoretically my memory limit should be my hard drive space. However, when I try to render my scene with a little less than 200k polys with a displacement map on it (trying to get grass), the task manager shows 3dsmax.exe using up to 4.3GB of commit memory (4gb working memory), then it crashes.
I've set Windows to use up to 16gb for my pagefile, so it seems like mental ray isn't actually 64-bit since it crashes right at the 4gb limit of a 32-bit program.

3ds Max :: Mental Ray Rendering Red Hotspots?
Jan 20, 2013we're currently doing an animation of a walkthrough of an airport where we're getting these strange artifacts when rendering after creating the final gather pass.
We're using only mr daylight system to light the scene, to get an all white soft-shadow render. Only three types material, diffuse white, glossy white and glass (all mr A&D). The glossy material gets blown out and we receive strange red and green artifacts here and there in the model.
We use mr Photographic Exposure Control.
3ds Max :: Mental Ray Message Window
Aug 22, 2011I am searching for the "mental ray message window" in the 2012 version. ok i've got the German version, but there is only a "rendermeldungsfenster"(render message window) where only the errors are shown. is there any other possibility to see how many final gather points are in the scene?

3ds Max :: Mental Ray Network Rendering
Mar 31, 2011I saw something about being able to render faster using network rendering for mental ray, but I'm not sure where I've seen it, nor do I know how it works.
If this is possible it would be great, since a scene I tried rendering had an ETA of about 51 hours. So I turned off ray traced shadows, seems to have lowered the rendering time quite a bit, but I'm still gonna end up with about 26 hours of rendering. If network rendering could bring that time down, that would be great.
3ds Max :: 2012 - Mental Ray Slower By 30%
Apr 8, 2011I just tested some of my scenes from Max 2011 in 2012, and rendering is in average about 30% slower than in 2011.
I am attaching pictures for reference. It is obvious that they are 100% identical, there is no difference quality wise, but a significant difference performance wise. I will add some more result comparisons on more complex scenes to confirm the problem once they finish rendering. I am willing to provide my scenes to Autodesk if interested to solve this issue ASAP.

View 3 Replies View Related3ds Max :: Rendering Volume Light With Mental Ray
Jun 16, 2011I've got this scene of a roman temple like structure, with the floor being slightly reflective. It is covered in a Volume light completely. When rendered it gives a really nice effect to it, however takes ages to render. And I need it to render faster.
Am rendering it with mental ray, and with the Volume Light deactivated, it takes about 30 seconds to render the whole frame. When activating it rendering less then 1/4th of the frame takes 4:30 minutes.
Now this is not gonna work well when I'm gonna render a movieclip, so I'm gonna ask the following: Is there a good, fast alternative for that volume light?

View 3 Replies View Related3ds Max :: Switch Off Mental Ray Extensions By Default
Dec 18, 2011I do not use Mental Ray at all. I am not interested in it. Ideally, I would uninstall all Mental Ray plugins but unfortunately, it seems Mental Ray classes are required by Substance.
I would love to have Preferences->mental ray-> Enable mental ray Extensions switched off by default. Unfortunately, I am unable to get this!
I have a MaxStart.max file with my basic VRay settings, VrayPhysicalCamera, Vray sun and sky system already in place. This is how I would like to start my each and every new Max scene. Unfortunately, regardless my settings, each time I restart Max, these bloody "mental ray extensions" are on again and again.
Is there any method to keep them off efficiently? So this does not return anymore?
