  1. actually i'm using a "rendered frame window" and not "net render" also the single frame is on in both Irr and LC and the single radio channel is on in the time output under "common tab" also the "distributed render" is turned on! the weired thing is that when I press render, it asks me where to save it twice although"autosave" is turned off in both common and framebuffer tabs I'm sure it's something in the render sttings that I shouldn't mess with because this happens only with my own customized render presets!! any ideas plz?
  2. Hey all, I'm using max 2009 with vray and I'm getting a weired result when I render(whether quick or production render!) : It renders twice instead of one time only(i.e: calculates light cahe and irradiance map & then does that again) and the strange thing is that underneath every bucket, it types my user name so I get a render result for example with my name(mr max) spread all over the page! I re installed max & vray on two different pc's and still the same problem! could it be a wrong setup in my rendersetup rollout? Thanks in advance everyone
  3. try attaching or collapsing similar objects, export as proxies while wisely choosing single or multiple export modes, and maybe adjusting the nth refresh rates of your viewports, you can also disable your materials in viewport or enable them from diffuse channel only. hope that helps
  4. You are right my friend, but my pc is not a benchmark pc! it's assembled and it seems there's a compatibility issue with it's parts That's why I switched to 32-bit max to save myself some headache though I know I lost many of the advantages of 64 bit system! I won't advice any one to purchase an assembled system even if it's way cheaper than benchmarks. cheers!
  5. Hey guys, thanks for all the suggestions that you gave me! I just formatted my pc and it seems it's a 64 bit compatibility issue! now I'm using my 32 bit Max on a 64 bit windows XP and I hope that works alright! Sorry for replying that late but I just got my connection back! cheers!
  6. Hey guys, I'm having a seriuos problem with my 2009 3ds max design! Lately it started to shut down suddenly and during renders and especially every time I try to pan or zoom in & out with the mouse wheel. It is happening so much that max shuts down every 10 seconds and I can't finish none of my projects! some times when I go to "isolate selection", it displays an error message and part of max's script that I don't understand! it also displays a msg box"exception error found" or something similar! is it my max version or is it abug or a virus because it happens in small files also in new ones!! I also noticed that importing cad files messes it up quickly. I'd really appreciate some help though I know I haven't been around lately due to certain circumstances! but any help would be great!

    models rendering

    Thanks for the help guys sandman ninja, I'll try applying the hdri of the used scene and i hope that works for me but I was wondering If I should use a closed room or just place my object on a plane in open space like I'm doing right now?! Dean, thanks for the great advice man, I'm thinking abou making my own studio that resembles my work theme & design and i'm sure that will give my work a nice tough! Thanks for all the help man, but I was wondering if there are any ready made studios or even tutorials about the proper studio lighting!
  10. Hi everyone, I recently started working at this new office and most of what we design are different types of stands, exhibition items, central points etc... the problem that i'm facing in rendering those items is that I can't show the exact details of those items since we basically render them in space with no walls or surrounding objects so I end up with bad lighting and low details of those models and it don't matter how much I change my render settings, I still get bad looking images! I'd really appreciate it if you guys tell me what is the best technique to render such models since I'm only used to large interior scenes and different lighting and rendering techniques! I don't know whether i should place my object in a closed room_studio or use HDRI's etc... I'm using max 2009 & vray engine. Thanks for all the help & advice
  11. Hi Spooner, I viewed the website and I since I'm also interested in buying a core 7i, it was a big help for me. The only thing I didn't understand in their test setting is enabling and disabling "overclocking" & "hyperthreading"! could you please tell me what are those and how to control them? Tim, I'd really recommend using 64x bit windows because it makes a whole lot of difference
  12. Have you tried used the section command? you go create_shapes_section and you create your section either horizontal or vertical and raise it to the level you want. when you hit create, you can name it and save it separately! this way lets you make infinte number of sections with a simple click! I hope that's what you're looking for
  13. sorry for replying late but i was away for couple days. Thanks a lot for the advice rick! I think I should try that out. Maybe the reason is that i have so many maps enabled in viewport that this happens with me, but i'm still confused why I don't get this problem on my laptop! could it be the graphics card on the assembled desktop that is not too original?!
  14. yes I'm using max 9/64 bit with vray SP1 1.5
  15. Hey guys we have those (hand assembled) computers at work with quad core, 4 gig ram and the 9500 nvidia VGA, so they should perform pretty good! but every time i'm modeling a project from scratch, I get to a point when I press F3 (smooth+highlight), max desplays an error msg and shuts down so I have to stay in wireframe mode all the time unless I isolate the objects (alt+q). Any clue why this is happening although I rarely have this problem on my old toshiba satellite laptop!! Thanks for any incoming reply:D
