This is a beta release of appleseed-max, an appleseed plugin for Autodesk 3ds Max 2015, 2016 and 2017.

Keep in mind this is beta-quality software and there are a number of known bugs that will be fixed in the next releases of the plugin.

Additional information are available on appleseed's users forum.

Changes

  • Added Background Alpha parameter to the renderer settings dialog.
  • Added global Scale Multiplier parameter to the renderer settings dialog.
  • Added Sheen and Sheen Tint parameters to the Disney material.
  • Increased upper bound of Disney material's Clearcoat parameter from 100% to 1000%.
  • Removed limitation where SSS material's Scale parameter had an effective minimum value of 0.1.

Installation

The following are installation instructions for 3ds Max 2017. Replace 2017 by the appropriate value for other versions of 3ds Max.

  1. If you have installed a previous version of the plugin, first uninstall it by deleting the appleseed folder from C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2017\plugins.
  2. Unzip the archive to C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2017\plugins.
  3. Launch 3ds Max, go to Customize → Configure System Paths... → 3rd Party Plug-Ins, click Add... and choose the C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2017\plugins\appleseed folder.

At this point the plugin should be installed and loaded in 3ds Max. Go to Customize → Plug-in Manager... and check that APPLESEED-MAX2017.DLR is present and loaded.
