Whether this will also work with 3rd party renderers is unclear. The documentation mentions that it supports the renderers included with 3DS Max including Arnold, ART, Scanline and Quicksilver.
The new loader allows for up to to 8K output and includes scripted tools to quickly set up Substances with a particular type of material. As mentioned it supports the new Bake to Texture workflows as well as new AOV workflows and includes new Scene Converter scripts for converting V-Ray and Corona Materials to the Physical Material.įinally, Max 2021 features the updated Substance 2 Substance2 map featuring the latest substance engine to allow users to natively load. Several new OSL shaders have been added including an HDRI Environment map to control the positioning and final look of the environment both in the viewport and the final render HDRI Lights to place HDR photos of real-world light sources that dynamically update the scene Uber Noise for several complex types of noise such as Perlin, Fractal, Cell, fBm, and Worley plus many more new and updated shaders including Color Correction, Float and Color Curves, plus Camera, Object, and Spherical Projections.Īrnold 6.0 is now the default renderer instead of the Scanline Renderer. It is also possible to drag and drop downloaded PBR maps straight from Windows Explorer into the Material/Maps Browser as the materials take care of correct gamma settings automatically. One material supports the Metal and Rough workflow, and the second supports specular and glossiness. Two new PBR materials have been added to simplify the creation of materials from standardised map types. It also supports more renderers (including Arnold), error validation and compatible map filtering, OSL texture maps and Blended Box maps, and MikkT normal mapping.Ī new Weighted Normals modifier is also added that improves the shading of models by altering the vertex normals to be perpendicular to larger flat polygons and generates explicit normals for meshes better and faster than ever. Weight options include Area, Angle, and Largest Face with full control over smoothing and blending values.
This release includes some solid improvements, including a brand new Bake to Texture tool that promises faster performance and a new streamlined workflow. Autodesk has announced the release of Max 2021, with several new features and enhanced workflows.
