help with scene (mental ray)

[nodar1978]

I want to start with mental ray, photo realistic renderings of interiors or exteriors. i know it takes time but could you make small scene in max please, with one or two lighting and small room with one hole for widow, just simple scene. Then I can find out correct settings for render window and for lightings. there are some scenes in tutorials but they are too big and too complicated with lighting and rendering settings for me to understand everything

thanks

Hi george,

 

I'm new with mental ray as a starter, I found this book recently

"Rendering with mental ray & 3ds Max" by Joep Van Der Steen was very useful, at least u learn some basic then get around with the settings until satisfy with your scene. I bought it from amazon.com.

Hope this help.

then how do you think, where i have to start? with tutorials or better with books? could you give me any advice please?

[Justin Hunt]

start with the shiped tutorials, and rtfm

 

just getting a scene with a bunch of settings will help no one to understand what's and why's of those settings. Each scene is different, what works for one scene may not be appropriate for an other.

 

Do some of your own leg work, post questions here and demonstrate that you are trying for yourself. Then you will get more help.

 

Trying not to be harsh, just real
