When we are going to texture the different elements designed in 3D Studio Max, we do not use a single material for the entire scene. In fact, different types of textures are used depending on the result we want to achieve.<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you know that in 3D Max there are different types of materials? Each of them has a different use. The main reason for this is that there is no material that is versatile and works for everything. Next, we will list those materials that are considered main:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • standard<\/strong> is the default material. It is a versatile surface model with a large number of options.<\/li>\n
  • ray tracing<\/strong> allows you to create Raytrace reflections and refractions. In addition, it supports fog, color density, translucency, fluorescence, and other special effects.<\/li>\n
  • Architectural<\/strong> provides a physically accurate material. It is specially designed to be used with the default detailed renderer and radiosity.<\/li>\n
  • the materials of mental ray<\/strong> they are supplied for use with the mental ray renderer.<\/li>\n
  • Matte\/Shadow<\/strong> is a material specific to turning an object into a matte object that displays the current environment map. Matte objects are not visible in the scene, but can have shadows cast on them from other objects.<\/li>\n
  • The housing material <\/strong>used to save and view rendered textures.<\/li>\n
  • Advanced lighting replacement material<\/strong> is used to adjust the effect of a material in radiosity or Light Tracer solutions.<\/li>\n
  • lightscape material <\/strong>helps import and export data from the Lightscape product.<\/li>\n
  • The Ink ‘n Paint material<\/strong> gives a comic strip look to objects.<\/li>\n
  • The Material DirectX 9 Shader<\/strong> allows you to shade objects in viewers using DirectX 9 (DX9) shaders. To use it you need a DirectX 9 compatible display driver and have the Direct3D display driver active.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    There are many other types of materials such as those for composition or those linked with the renderer. Are you interested in achieving better results in your 3D projects?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
