    Description

    3ds Max 2018 software introduces the Arnold 5.0 rendering engine as one of the default rendering engines, replacing the mental ray engine that many Revit users are accustomed to using. This has ramifications for workflow, materials, and lighting when linking or importing Revit models into 3ds Max software. You might be tempted to stick to the ART renderer to avoid the change, however the Arnold renderer can provide stunning still images, as well as 360°, virtual-reality, stereo panorama images when configured properly. This class will provide you with the tips and tricks you'll need to successfully pair your Revit model with the new features of 3ds Max. Come get acquainted with Arnold!
