Maxwell 5 | 3ds Max offers seamless integration, allowing you to work comfortably within the 3ds Max interface. This product has been specifically designed for rendering in 3ds Max with a simple yet comprehensive Maxwell toolbar. It brings you advanced Maxwell Render technology in a simple, self-contained package.
Render engine built-in
Maxwell Integrations offer an easy workflow which allow you to compose, edit and render your scenes from a simple toolbar inside your usual 3D application. Maxwell Integrations come with the full Maxwell toolkit, including:
Maxwell Production Engine
Multilight
FIRE (interactive preview engine)
Materials Editor
Real camera model
Network tools
New in Maxwell 5
New Multi-GPU engine
Fully rewritten MULTI-GPU engine provides more than 50x speed-up compared with a high-end CPU, preserving the Maxwell quality and delivering results in minutes or even seconds.
Cloud render service. Always ready for you.
The new cloud render service is integrated in Maxwell Studio and supported plugins. Just click a button and the Maxwell scene will be rendered by the fastest machines (96 cores) available in the cloud.
Additive materials in GPU
Materials with additive layers are now GPU-ready, increasing compatibility with the majority of Maxwell materials.
V-Ray scene import
Import native V-Ray scenes and convert them to Maxwell automatically. Only supported in Maxwell Studio.
Improved interactivity and stability
Procedural textures
Add more variability and realism to your scene by randomizing texture properties automatically across multiple objects or tiled surfaces.
Light groups (Multilight)
Lights can now be grouped and controlled like single emitters in the Multilight 'emixer'. Useful to keep MXI files more compact, reduce memory footprint and decrease complexity in scenes with lots of emitters.
Support for high-resolution (4K) screens in both Studio and Render
Now Studio and Maxwell Render interface are able to accommodate to high resolution displays like 4K or higher.
Improved workflow
Nested references allow for better management of large scenes with deep hierarchies, optimizing file sizes. Dependencies are now searched in several subfolder levels, streamlining assets management.
