MaxToLux Plugin Reference Manual

TAO: /* Maps/Textures */

=Introduction=

MaxToLux is the 3dsMax internal plugin to render directly inside 3dsmax using LuxCoreRenderer API. The plugin(s) is written in c++. MaxToLux is still under development and needs more work to be a complete renderer.

The original forum discussion about this topic can be found [https://forums.luxcorerender.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1010 here]

[[File:MaxLuxCore Internal screenshot.jpg|450px|thumb|left|Screenshot by Omid Ghotbi [https://forums.luxcorerender.org/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=539 (TAO)]]]

MaxToLux is written in C++, and it's integrated into the

interface like most other renderer plugins and natively

utilizes the LuxCore interface.

This renderer plugin is still in an early stage of development.

If you want to contribute by testing the plugin, suggesting

features or by joining the developer team refer to [https://forums.luxcorerender.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1010 this thread]

for more information.

====Fallback====

When an unsupported material type is chosen MaxLuxCore will render it as a standard grey material.

===Unsupported materials===

All unsupported shaders are simply rendered as a matte grey material.

===Lights===

MaxLuxCore translates these standard lights into luxrender lights:

Omni
Spot Light
Directional Light
Sky Light

Not all parameters for these are translated yet, but color and intensity is supported. The rest is work in progress - and later we will create fully custom lights that have all the luxrender light parameters in their GUI.

====Unsupported lights====

if there is no light in the scene, the plugin will automatically create a skylight as a Default light in the scene. It'll work as ambient/global light.

===Cameras===

We support the standard 'target camera' and 'physical target camera. We will add support for 'viewport' type rendering soon. Also, a custom Luxrender camera with all the luxrender camera settings in its GUI will be created as soon as we have time.

TAO: /* Unsupported lights */

=Introduction=

MaxLuxCore is the 3dsMax internal plugin to render directly inside 3dsmax using LuxCore API. The plugin(s) is written in c++. MaxLuxCore is still under development and needs more work to be a complete renderer, in short time it will support all standard lights, shaders, cameras and more.

=Supported features=

==Materials==

Material previews in the material editor.

===LRI Matte===

This is a basic shader, that supports:

Diffuse texture
Bumpmap
Basic color

===LRI Glow===

This is a shader that lets you use mesh as light. Currently, it supports:

Color

===LRI Template===

This is a template material that we use for development, this is where we first implement new features and then move them over to other shaders.

===Architectural material===

We try to support the standard material 'Architectural material'. This is so that users of the architectural application can more easily render their scenes without converting the shaders. This is work in progress, but currently, it supports:

Template settings:

Glass
Metal brushed
Mirror

More features are added as we progress.
