So what exactly is/is not changing with rendering in Autodesk 3ds Max 2018?Īutodesk has made the following changes with 3ds Max 2018: Here are a few questions we have answered that make things a little clearer: However, customers wishing to use Arnold, Iray, Mental Ray, or other third-party rendering solutions for command line or network rendering may need to purchase additional licenses. Instead, customers will be able to use Arnold for foreground (in-session) processing in addition to Scanline, Quicksilver, and Autodesk Raytracer (ART).Ĭustomers who need to scale their output using either background processing or a render farm can continue to use Scanline, Quicksilver, and ART license-free. With the release of 3ds Max 2018® software, Autodesk will no longer include NVIDIA’s Mental Ray as part of 3ds Max.
