Ortho, simulates parallel perspective, suitable for elevation or plan renders Fish Eye, Spherical and Cylindrical offer some special projections that can help to achieve wide-angle or even 360º views. Thin Lens is the Maxwell default lens which features depth of field and motion blur Pin Hole is the same as Thin Lens but removes all the depth of field effect. If the angle between adjacent polygons is smaller or equal to this angle, they will be smoothed. Smoothing Angle: With this parameter, you have advanced control about how the plugin exports smooth polygons. Opaque: All materials are assigned the chosen overwrite material except transparent materials, which keep their glass materials.ĭefault material: Here you can choose an mxm file (Maxwell material) to be used for any object without specific materials. You can choose override material if you click on the. It has three modes:ĭisabled: This is the default mode, the plugin doesn't apply the overwrite material option.Īll: It is the same as the Override Material setting in Studio, all the geometries are rendered with the same override material.
Renders with simplified material setup can be very useful to study shadows and light. Override Material: This option is a more flexible version of the previous foam material feature. Value 2.0 meas scale up by 2 and 0.001 is the same as 1:1000. Value 1.0 means the exported items will have the same size what they have in ARCHICAD. Geometry Scale: You can scale up or down the ARCHICAD geometries during the export process. It lets you choose if you want the different lights stored in a single image (composite) or you prefer to get each light contribution to be stored in a different image for further compositing tasks (Separate). Save Mode: This option remains greyed out unless Multilight option is active. Here is more information about this feature: Multilight You can set it to Disabled, Intensity (it only allows modifying the intensity of the lights during or after the render but doesn't require as much RAM as Color Multilight) or Color (which allows changing both the intensity and color of the lights). Multilight: Here you can activate Multilight option. Please see the Command Line page for more details. Low is set by default as it allows you to keep working on your scene while rendering without a big slowdowns and without a very noticeable performance loss in the render.Ĭommand Line: Additional command line parameters of Maxwell render (MXCL) can be specified here. Priority: This sets the priority of the rendering process in your computer hierarchy. 0 means all available and -1 or -2 mean all but 1 or all but two. Threads: Here you can select how many threads of the CPU processor you want to use for a render. If you select the GPU engine, a gear icon will show up so you can select which cards you want to use for rendering). If you want to stop the render manually just set the time to a very high value as well as the SL (a high SL normally unreachable can be SL 30 an exterior render can be ready at around SL 13-15 an interior render may need an SL 15-18)Įngine: Here you can choose between CPU Production (good for final render using only the CPU), CPU Draft (good for quick previews it's what FIRE uses, but it doesn't render channels, Multilight sliders, or stores the MXI file) or GPU. Whichever is reached first it will stop the render. Time (min) and Sampling Level: These two options will determine when the render will stop. Protect Geometry: Enable this option to protect the exported geometry so that it cannot be re-exported from Maxwell Studio in OBJ format.
Name: Name of the MXS file (Maxwell scene file) the plugin generates. Folder: Select the folder location of Maxwell generated files (mxs, mxi, jpg.
