jotero if you have a site i can send the maxwell file to i can upload that too. then everyone can use them
i just did the c4d format as it retains all the maxwell tags
so if anyone has a site i can dump the maxwell files on then let me know, but i havent opened them up in maxwell studio so im guessing (well i kinda know) that it will have lost all the object groups :/

nicoR44 if someone has some space to upload them to then sure
also remember that these have been grouped in c4d so that grouping will not be there in the studio so someone will have to spend time doing that ( i may do it later )

EDIT: just opened them in the studio and they all work but the grouping aint done as mentioned, but ive named the parts (some small parts may have been missed - so shoot me :) )

is that using the light box?
try it on the last setup, maybe. only snag is its c4d format
but easy to do cause you have all the lights ive used

Thanks for these scenes, nice of you :)

You will need much bigger lightsources to get smoother shadows. The harshness of the ones you have are good for dramatic lighting but for furniture and small objects you need much softer shadows most of the time.
