Autodesk 3ds Max Design software introduces powerful lighting simulation and analysis technology, rendering capabilities, high levels of interoperability with Revit software, and more.
Key technologies include Exposur, a toolset for simulating and analyzing sun, sky, and artificial lighting; Recognize, scene loading technology that significantly improves 3ds Max Design and Revit workflows; Reveal, iterative rendering technology for fast feedback and finished renderings; and ProMaterials™ technology, a library of accurate manufacturer-related materials.
Exposure
Exposure is a key technology, exclusive to 3ds Max Design, for simulating and analyzing sun, sky, and artificial lighting in a 3D scene. Ideal for sustainable architecture projects, this powerful feature set has been designed to assist architects in evaluating light intensity in their designs. This can facilitate the evaluation of indoor environmental quality—required, for example, for LEED 8.1 certification. In addition to light metering functionality with graphical output, Exposure also features the popular Autodesk 3ds Max software sun and sky models, a quick-settings dashboard interface and an intelligent user interface for accessing the various aspects of the software used in a light simulation, such as render settings, light settings, and material settings.
Reveal Rendering
The Reveal rendering system gives you the precise rendering control you need to quickly refine your work. Choose to render your entire scene minus a specific object, or render one object only, or a specific region of the Framebuffer. The rendered image Framebuffer contains a simplified set of tools to quickly validate changes in a render by optionally filtering out objects, regions, or processes in order to balance quality, speed, and completeness.
Recognize
With 3ds Max Design, Autodesk unveils Recognize, a powerful new technology that delivers new levels of 3ds Max Design and Revit interoperability. The FBX-based Recognize scene loading toolset lets you quickly–and very....(read more)
