Re: Shaders with Studio Max (Metal Bump 9)
I can't say Dekker. POV-Ray is an independant application as far as I know. It runs with AC3D as that program supports .pov files as the default rendering output.

By the way, did you try Moray? If so, how was it? I've never bothered to try it...

Surprisingly easy to get into.
Not sure about the file formats though .UDO anyone :wtf:?


No idea how to get my max files into POV ray still. But i believe my benchmark scores are reasonably high (attached)

I really wish I could help, Dekker...

However, there is a Wiki on the POV-Ray site. After a bit of browsing, I did get a few leads on 3DS Max. As both programs are imaginably fairly widespread, I'd be shocked if there wasn't a Max plug-in to export .pov files.

 :eek2: And no... I've never heard of .udo before. I did look at Moray after you mentioned it, and it seemed like a pretty old piece of software. At least by your description it's pretty easy to use!

Finally, bringing the subject of renderer back up again has inspired me to make a better rendition of one of my favorite "old gals":
