Anybody have any luck using RPC content with Maxwell?

I doubt it since i cannot remember anyone on this forum saying they successfully used them, so the answer is no!

No I've had no luck using RPC's with Maxwell, unless there is a way to either convert the RPC material to a Maxwell material or have Maxwell accept materials other than Maxwell materials I don't see how they will ever work.

I never use RPC's in the scene anyway. Either use the photoshop RPC plugin, or render them with scanline (this is what I do) and composite them after. Much easier and less risky considering how unreliable they are. You can use a matte shadow material to get your reflections also.

It would be a great thing if RPC content could be used in Maxwell.
This is a widely used tool for architectural visualkization.

Just render the Shadows with the Scanline, and merge them together in PS.
I use for the rendering of the Shadow, a Skript called: "Shadowman"
