Download or read book Autodesk 3ds Max 2021 Managing Scenes Files and Projects written by Serdar Hakan DÜZGÖREN and published by Serdar Hakan DÜZGÖREN. This book was released on with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: File-Handling Commands The principal commands for handling files are found on the File menu. File-Handling Apps and Utilities There are several apps and utilities available that help you manage content and files: The 3ds Max Asset Library is a standalone app that allows you to quickly access 3D content on your local computer and network in a single view, making all content instantly searchable. You can download the app from the Autodesk App store. The Bitmap / Photometric Path Editor utility lets you view bitmap paths or remove them from the scene file. The File Finder is another resource for finding 3ds Max scenes. The Resource Collector copies or moves a scene's bitmaps into a single directory. The Fix Ambient utility resolves lighting issues with older versions of scene files. The Bitmap Pager Statistics dialog provides information that helps you resolve issues with scenes that require large amounts of memory for texture maps. The Substitute modifier lets you replace linked AutoCAD Architecture objects with native 3ds Max geometry and objects. Image File Formats You can use image file formats in a variety of ways: as textures for materials, as backgrounds to viewports, as background environments, as Image Input events in Video Post, and as images projected from a light. Similarly, 3ds Max can render to a number of popular image file formats. External References (XRefs) to Objects and Scenes External references to objects and scenes are another powerful way to manage a project, especially when it involves multiple contributors.

Download or read book Autodesk 3ds Max 2021 Lighting and Shading Book written by Serdar Hakan DÜZGÖREN and published by Serdar Hakan DÜZGÖREN. This book was released on with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Types of Lights 3ds Max provides two types of lights: photometric and standard. All types are displayed in viewports as light objects. They share many of the same parameters, including shadow generators. Photometric Lights Photometric lights use photometric (light energy) values that enable you to more accurately define lights as they would be in the real world. You can set their distribution, intensity, color temperature, and other characteristics of real-world lights. You can also import specific photometric files available from lighting manufacturers to design lighting based on commercially available lights. Standard Lights Standard lights are computer-based objects that simulate lights such as household or office lamps, the light instruments used in stage and film work, and the sun itself. Different kinds of light objects cast light in different ways, simulating different kinds of light sources. Unlike photometric lights, Standard lights do not have physically-based intensity values.
