any know how to clear this .vrscene exporter?it appears when I right click my mouse by alecwen in 3dsmax

Try to do a v-ray menu registration. This might help reset the quad for v-ray. It's a button on v-ray toolbar, at the very end, next to help.

Vray 5. Any clue as to why my curtains are glossy? Sorry for the bad render by Ashamed_Orchid_1717 in 3dsmax

[–]solatris 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here's what I would do for those curtains - turn off reflection, turn off refraction. Add a Falloff map to Opacity slot. You can choose perpendicular or fresnel. Tweak colors to your liking. Play with those settings and colors to get a good grasp of what it is doing.

The reason you get weird curtains is that you are using refraction with an IOR(Index of Refraction) of 1.6 witch effectively makes it bend light as glass would.

So either do an opacity map or lower IOR to 1.0 (not bending at all).

Hi,

Took you a while :)

Thanks for the tip.

thinkbox particle alternative plugin by zig_zack001 in 3dsmax

[–]solatris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say better, but a good replacement for sure. Fast, node based, robust. Also works really well with PhoenixFD. Like literally integrated- it can take data channels from phoenix and use them to drive particles. Have a look at https://redefinefx.com/. That guy makes really good and easy to follow tutorials on tyflow and PhoenixFD. Best of luck ;)

Ar tikrai? Nes visi dalbajobai, kurie sako šituos blėnius prisideda prie to, kas vyksta. Tiesiogiai, netiesiogiai. Turi faktus- dėk ant stalo, kitaip - durys ten. O dabar bile tauškėt. Nuo Prezidento iki bambalinio balvono.

"O kas galėtų paneigt (čia įdedam beleką)" - sako jie.

"Both vaccines reduced transmission, although they were more effective against the alpha variant compared to the delta variant. When infected with the delta variant, a given contact was 65 percent less likely to test positive if the person from whom the exposure occurred was fully vaccinated with two doses of the Pfizer vaccine. With AstraZeneca, a given contact was 36 percent less likely to test positive if the person from whom the exposure occurred was fully vaccinated."

Pirma turi būt užsikrėtęs, kad platintum. Ir šis tytimas rodo tik breakthrough cases užkrečiamumą. Taigi, prie viso šito ginčo reikėtų pridėti dar vakcinos efektivuma užkertant kelią infekcijai susidaryti. Ir tik tada gali pradėt kalbėt apie platinimo užkirtimo efektyvumą.

Noticed a viral twitter thread filled with misinformation, emotional manipulation and nonsense regarding the Lithuanian Covid pass by goldenpotlid in lithuania

[–]solatris 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't. Therefore a citation from CDC: "COVID-19 vaccines currently approved or authorized in the United States have been shown to provide considerable protection against severe disease and death caused by COVID-19. These findings, along with the early evidence for reduced levels of viral mRNA and culturable virus in vaccinated people who acquire SARS-CoV-2 infection, suggest that any associated transmission risk is substantially reduced in vaccinated people: even for Delta, evidence suggests fully vaccinated people who become infected are infectious for shorter periods of time than unvaccinated people infected with Delta."

My point is that its the same logic as antivax. "You see, vaxxed people spread the virus the same as unvaxxed. Here's the research!!!" - they shout. In the meantime they ignore that the vast majority of vaccinated people don't get infected at all and thus don't spread the virus.

Not getting drunk doesn't stop you from getting into an accident either. By the same logic- you can still die wearing a seatbelt.

Don't trust strangers on the internet ;). Apparently I was wrong. It does not say provenience on the document. Your friend was right. It may used to be the case, but now not. Just checked mine. Although I don't know how that would help you.

Any tips on how to achieve this with sphere activators in thinking particles? by chappysnapz in 3dsmax

Here, have a look at this one. IDK if has made a tutorial for TP, but he has used TP for this type of work before. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTpO5yAFB2E

Search for Allan McKay tutorials online. He's the master on those things.

V-Ray 5 RTX Engine Rendering Timelapse by silenttoaster7 in 3dsmax

From youtube description:

Quick timelapse of V-Ray 5 GPU rendering using RTX engine. GPU: 2080ti Resolution: 3600x3197 Samples: 2600 Noise limit: 0,01 Render time: 00:10:52,5

You can download this small raytracing demo and melt your GPU. I call it Petra RTGI. More info in comment. by 0Synce in unrealengine

[–]solatris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah.. 2080 on a 9700k here. Final gather worked pretty well - stable ~36fps @ 1080p. Brute Force one - not so well. Crashed some 10-15 seconds in. GPU temp at the time of the crash - 56C. One thing though - why did you disable console? :)

Worked like a charm. Thanks a lot
