RGB is different between 3DS Max and Photoshop

[branskyj]

Hi all,

I am using Max 2014 here at work and have noticed long time ago that a certain RGB value set in Photoshop and 3DS Max gives me slightly different colors. I have to manually tweak the color to match it.

In Max under Gamma/LUT I have Gamma set to 2.2 and both Affect options ticked. Is it a Photoshop related issue or am I doing something wrong in Max?

If I picked the Photoshop with the color picker in Max the color is a perfect match, but if I type in the RGB values manually they are slightly different.

 

Any idea, guys?

Thank you very much.

You need to correct the RGB values in max for linear space.
