Creating a realistic wood material with V-Ray for 3ds Max

Try V-Ray for 3ds Max at www.chaos.com/try-free
Bring your wood materials to life. In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to create a realistic wooden material in V-Ray for 3ds Max. We’ll start with a basic wooden material and we’ll then take it to the next level by adding intricate wear and tear to the wood surface, including scratches and wear around the edges of the object. To make it even more lifelike, we'll show you how to add dirt into the crevices of the wood, bringing out those fine details. Finally, we'll sprinkle a touch of dust to complete the look. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out!

Beautiful tutorial! It would be fantastic if it were possible to have the option to add notes within the material editor, similar to how it's done in Grasshopper for Rhino. Thank you so much!

A tutorial on how to do a CD material would be nice (with its anisotrpic shading and light dispersion).

Why don't we have a strong dirt mask by default?

[@dumitrucalughin5114]

Tutorial and Maya please. Thanks!

[@faissaltiz]

C4d plz

[@DanFrederiksen]

Interesting complex material but it doesn't look particularly real.

[@ChaosOfficial]

This is only a quick tutorial covering the basics. You are free to play around with it as much as you need to get the results you desire. Thank you!

[@pix2cad490]

It does look real! MAY BE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN MUCH WOOD IN YOUR LIFE. YOU COULD BE SAHARA DESERT MAN😂

[@hamidsalami7022]

Try to use a better wood texture to make a wood looks particularly real.

[@thisisfyne]

Why is the reflection of the base wood completely white though? Don't PBR standards stipulate that dielectrics should have roughly between 40 and 65 sRGB values? Also he says that dust isn't reflective (which is correct), but adds a super high values of sheen which contributes to specularity (???) Some stuff he does seems pretty arbitrary....

[@Brettttttttt69]

I don’t understand what you’re saying but I agree

[@irgendna]

yes agree ideally at least base wood should have a reflection map also. but i think this tutor is more focused on particular usage of curvature and dirt maps.

[@combojerman28]

does chaos ONLY know 3ds max OR WHAT? tis needs also maya users HELP!
