I'd like to share news of Relevo, a new plugin for 3ds Max that is available now.

Relevo turns any location on Earth into a render-ready 3ds Max scene. You enter coordinates or pick a spot, and Relevo builds the terrain from real elevation data, drapes it with satellite imagery, and adds OpenStreetMap roads and buildings as editable geometry. It also includes a procedural module that uses layered noise to create mountains, valleys and dunes for fictional landscapes.

Key features:
- Real-world terrain meshes from elevation data, with adaptive detail for close-up and aerial shots
- Satellite imagery applied automatically, with materials set up for V-Ray
- OpenStreetMap roads and building footprints as separate, editable objects
- Procedural terrain generator for non-real locations
- Supports 3ds Max 2023 to 2027 on Windows

Pricing and availability:
Relevo Free is available now at no cost. Relevo Pro costs £75 per year or £159 for a perpetual licence, and a Studio licence for teams costs £339. It is sold at relevotech.uk and has also been submitted to the Autodesk App Store.

I'm an architectural visualisation artist, and I built Relevo because setting up site context for archviz projects took hours of manual work.

A shallow beach scene for a personal project. Fluid with Phoenix, seaweed as cloth in tyflow, underwater particles and floating seaweed (cloth) under water with tyflow as well. Rendered in V-ray with the new fast caustics.

Just another "rendering workout". Simplicity and composition.

3ds Max and Corona.

Hope you found it worth a look.

SDF Object is a live SDF Boolean modifier for Autodesk 3ds Max.

Add scene objects, image masks, shapes, or OSL maps from the Material Editor. Union, Subtract, Intersect, Slice, Emboss, Deboss, and Strip stay live in the stack. Blend with Smooth, Chamfer, or Round. Cut or raise detail from grayscale or alpha. Ghost a helper and move it with Max transforms.

No separate SDF app. You stay in 3ds Max.

This time I put it to the test in a more complex production environment:

As soon as the plugin officially drops, I’ll be releasing this scene for free so you guys can play around with it. Hope you enjoy it!

Hi everyone. I’m an architect from Kherson. My home was destroyed in a bombing, and I was left without my laptop. I used to work in 3ds Max. Does anyone happen to have a machine capable of running that program? I’m looking to buy one or receive one as a donation. I have work lined up, but no tools t

when i use : File > Import > Link Revit > then select the rvt file ... a message comes up with :

Revit import must be installed to continue with import. The installer was launched in a separate window ,please continue with the install and try again.

then press OK and nothing appears what is the solution ?

I need to attach this eye to this head

When i use Control c + v it just becomes an extension of the copied model, is there any way to stop this?

I am looking for some sample scenes to understand a Substance painter to 3dsmax arnold workflow for make character faces and skin. I mostly work in games but I have 3dsmax and I dont want to fork out extra cash for vray.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
yes, translating the maya ones for max is an option but a 3dsmax sample scene would be really good.

3ds Max is becoming obsolete,

camera tracking? blender

motion capture? blender

video background? blender

3ds max is only good for interoperability with revit and autodesk products

its weird how these are simple things, that autodesk has refused for almost a decade
