Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Scenario: I have a scene which I want to render with MW, but several issues make it impossible (OK, not impossible but totally painstaking and annoying)

1. In Layout I choose different materials from the Material Browser for the objects.

2. When I hit 'RENDER Frame' from the Plug in, all objects have the same material OR they are emitters even I haven't define ANY emitter so far!

So what's the solution? I don't want to import all objects separately into Studio

no problem here, try to post a simple scene + object that show you problem

thxraph

yes post something... we'll all take a look sms...

Thanks for the reply but probably I found out how it works... I hope it is the most efficient way...

I first create a MXM from surface and save this somewhere. So far it's ok (a bit laborious I think). But now there is another problem When I add a bump map MR doesn't take any account for the map. I thought OK, then maybe add it to the Maxwell Bump Map layer slot but still no bump map to see. I guess it has something to do with the projectors, right? I'd also like to know how I can switch between the different projection types like planar, cubic, spherical, etc. - or is that only possible in Studio?

Thank you very much in advance!

No one?

Bump works here. I rely a lot on UV projections, that I found reasonably reliable. You just have to guess the projection numner in Maxwell.
