Just tried the free sample! What a different! Thank you for the tips

Oh I see! I will take a look on hdrilocations Is there any other way to creat a background instead of HDRI images or is it the way to go?

Or perhapes the EV-number?

When I created this model I had somewhere in my mind that it was going to be a "clean" waiting lounge or something. But I totally agree that the picture is kinda empty except the stair. I'm kinda new to Maxwell render and their materials, I downloaded the floor "marble" from http://resources.maxwellrender.com/search.php#page=1&mode=1&search=marble&v1=0&v2=0&tipo=. Any tips how I get it more comfortable?

Haha I guess you are getting old ha ha I will defintly try to add some more details!

For sure the exterior is not the best one, I used a free HDR image, should I just increase the intensity or what to do?

Wonderful pictures! Do you know which program they used?

Thanks for all tips!

Hi,

I'm trying to creat grass blades with Sketchup 8 together with Maxwell render plugin. Using this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJ9CfuiuAiA, around 5 minutes in the guys hits "render" but when I do, Sketchup shuts down and a bugreport appears. Is there anyone that has experience creating grass that could help me?

Hello,

I'm pretty new with Maxwell render, trying to get realistic renders..

Could anybody help me, tell me what I'm doing wrong, give me some tips/tricks?
The pic is modelled in Sketchup and rendered to around SL20. Where does to white spots comes from?

Thanks!

I guess the realism comes with experience! Thank you for the tips. Really glad I found this forum.

Ah sorry I was searching for a free library to start with as I'm a beginner and don't want to spend hundreds of dollars Before I'm feeling that I could handle Maxwell render the way I want to.

Maybe a stupid question, but is there any ideal settings to get photorealism in and interiour render? If you looking at my stair (http://www.cnb.n.nu/foto) I'm not really satisfied with the result. I Think it looks a bit to "computer pic", not the realism I'm trying to learn.

Well I tried to download the MXM files, it is the library I'm looking for! But the problem is that the following text appear "the following texture could not be found". I met this problem Before when downloading from Maxwell Resources..

Thanks for the tips! I downloaded it but when trying to open it in the studio no materials showing up? How do I open SKM-files in Maxwell?

Do you want to take a look on my settings in Maxwell? I'm not really comfortable with the result in this "fire", using EV 5,0.. First photo in the link below!

I'm very grateful for your help!

Thank you! It helped to autozoom also Another problem I met is when adding an emitter to a lamp or something I have to use like 4000W to light up a 5x5 m2 room. Do you know what that could be?

I also wonder if there is any materialpackage I can get from somewhere except the materials from Maxwell Resources, like if there is any library with Wood, Concrete, transcluent and so on..

Thanks again!
Niclas

Problem solved! Thank you Do you have any solution when the zoom gets to sensitive in Maxwell studio? Probably something with the scale?

Where do I find the context menu? Thanks for fast response!

Hello everyone!

I have a problem when usign Maxwell render with Sketchup. Normally on my other computer I make textures in Sketchup, example Wood floor and transcluent glass and then when working in Maxwell studio the surfaces are devided exactly the way after the colors from Sketchup, so it is easy to set new materials on the floor, windows and so on. But on my main computer, exporting the same model to the studio the model working like "one object", I cant no longer add a new material to the floor, if do so the whole object gets the floor material. Could the be any setting in my Maxwell that is the problem?

Thanks
