Maxwell Render | Official public forum

I am trying to make a carpet with the grass extension. i will use angle maps. but i get only strange results with it. also the angle map from the maxwell think site does not work right. always it looks stragne like that:



I use the cinema plugin, an this angle map:



what's wrong?

Does it also render like that? Looking at the map it has enough green to not make the blades sit flat like that. What if you export an MXS and import it into Studio, do the blades look ok? Perhaps it's a plugin issue so better post this in the C4D forum.

Your right it's a problem with cinema. the render ist ok. but this angle-map technique really isn't easy to use. Is NL work for a easier way to have influence of the grass? Like a ridge or a brush, like ist is in Hair from Cinema4d?

Angle map is working fine here in cinema.

I confirm some problems with the grass preview in the plugin, and will take a look.

Thank you!
