i cannot save the image after a rendering was completed with the standalone renderer. please have a look at this:

You can save it to inside the Maxwell folder.

Applications/Maxwell/Output.

Looks like a permissions problem

no, does not work here...

there's no way to select open windows like material browser or material editor by menu/shortcut. very clumsy if they are hidden behind the main window...
there should be a working menu listing all open windows and some associated shortcuts.

another workflow stopper is that drag and drop of an mxs onto the studio icon is not supported (yet?) ...

I just tried myself. You need to add the image extension (.tga or .jpg) depending which format you want to save it. The location does not mater.

In your case the image should be called test.tga or test.jpg

hey mgroeteke, hello all

got a question, have u or somebody else try to render without skydome etc. only with ermitters?
Its not working here, everything black. i have tried everything but no result.
also the preview ist not rendering corectly sometimes its yellow sometimes its the 1a 2a 3a... texture.
and mxstudio is using a LOT of CPU even if u not working, thats bad

i hope there will be new plugins soon because the .stl meshes are horrible.

thanks for the hint - that's it it, needs an ending! - yes it works indeed with JPG! i only tried the native .MXI format, but now i see there's an extra menu for that and it's disabled. go figure...

yes, i got it working - no sky, only emitter. but the trick was to save the file, quit and restart studio, reload the file and then start the rendering...

i still didn't find out how this preview and render feature in the viewport screen mode menu should work? i get a test texture all the time. at least, the 'render scene' icon on top works fine...

The more I read this, the more I'm asking myself if that was tested at all.

Has any tester actually cranked out a single image using the OS X version
that was not based on a windows scene?

The sheer number of obvious issues is insulting. It really looks like they
started to work on the Mac version on January 17th.

just didn't want to stay OT, so please see here:

please let's keep this thread for bugs and issues, it's better for us and NL will have a better chance to know and fix them...

markus

as already reported in another thread, the preview does not work in maxwell.app!

I have already posted this in another thread.

TIP for others I got this off from NextLimit.
"to get rid of that yellow from the renders, switch viewport shading to Textured Decal and then to Preview or Render o Region Render.
It's a specific Mac bug that we are still investigating."

Keep posting...
