Hi,

new "maxwell_max_2.5.3.exe" plugin (26.851 KB) for 3ds Max Design 2011 on my computer (Vista 32). When i start Max and open a Maxwell file and go to render, Maxwell render the scene but not the new fire module is to find. Can anybody help me?

FIRE is integrated through ActiveShade in Max. Set Maxwell as the ActiveShade renderer, click ActiveShade in the render options dialog (on the left of the render button, at the bottom of the dialog), and hit render. There are demo movies on the FIRE page here.

i don't knew that i can change the Renderer in Max by ActiveShade. I looked the video, but i don't saw that in the options the Renderer by ActiveShade is to change.
Thank you very much for the Help Mihnea!

Is there a new manual for the Max plugin?
