The new Working Pivot tools for modelling, animation and rigging workflows now allow users to adjust the position and orientation of pivots, interactively realign axis orientation, and add Pivot and Grid Helpers more easily – among other tasks. When using ReForm's Auto Edge contraints, users can also transfer important mesh data that has already been created to the output result. This process makes preparing meshes with modifiers like SubDivide or ProOptimize unnecessary but still generates the same ReForm results.Īlso, a new Data Propagation tool propagates existing mesh data, such as Smoothing Groups, UVs, Normals and Vertex colour, from the input topology to the new Remesh and Retopology mesh output, while keeping mesh data information. The remeshed data will then generate clean quad geometry. When active, ReForm will generate a simplified intermediary mesh that accurately follows the input geometry. Retopology Tools 1.2 speed up pre-processing of complex mesh data using a new Pre-process option found in the ReForm options. For version 2.0, physically based rendering (PBR) was added, replacing WebGL shaders.Ī new glTF Material Preview in 3ds Max also makes it possible to open glTF assets in the viewport and generate an accurate view of how they will look when exported to different environments outside Max.

GlTF keeps the size of 3D assets, and the runtime processing needed to unpack and use them, to a minimum and, because it makes using 3D content interoperable across applications, authoring workflows become simpler and more efficient. Support for gITF means users can publish assets directly to gITF 2.0, a standard 3D format for web and online stores, while maintaining their visual quality. The glTF specification is used in engines and applications for transmitting and loading 3D scenes and models. New support for glTF, flexible modelling tools and greater control are among the most recent updates to Autodesk 3ds Max, all of which aim to save artists time. 3ds Max includes the new version of Arnold, which contains updates for handling complex projects faster, and customising pipelines.
