Stop Rendering Dirt Masks, Make It Realtime | 3ds Max

Yo guys, today on ‪@RenderRam‬ , I'm using Data Channel modifier to get some nice super fast procedural dirt masks!
Of course, this video would not be possible without the help of our dear ‪@evermotion‬ , so please check out evermotion.org/ and check out all important news in our CGI world!

[@frogyafro]

The reasons you mentioned why most people avoid data channel is spot on! haha

[@krzysztofbogdanowicz4543]

Hard to believe that I see it for the first time, after working in 3dsmax starting from release 2012. Thank you very, very much !

[@fadisoueidi4127]

amazing! best 3d max content on youtube.

[@Someone-jy7ch]

this chanel is honestly insane with the useful information that you don't usually hear anywhere else

[@yamar4116]

Dude it is like I am learning a totally new software with each of your videos (even though I've been using max for more than 15 years now (sad))! Thank you so much. Even features that I know I won't use probably, I now want to try and are always interesting to learn about. Also you are great in presenting them in a chill and interesting way! Thanks for producing such nice content!

[@RenderRam]

Thank you, means a lot! Max has a LOT of things to offer, sometimes I feel like I'm just scratching the surface

[@alpherbethe]

Wow! That was amazing. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!

[@gildinovic1072]

a) it does sound horrible 😄 b) it sounds horrible, I didn't want to click on it 😅 c) I did click on it, but I immediately deleted it bc it didn't look user-friendly at all. 🤣🤣🤣 Another great tutorial! Thank you so much, Vjeko! 🙂

[@freezedtube]

Cool! Thank you!

[@whiteghost8244]

I luckly found this channel from stack group and it's so underrated. Keep creating such awesome content bro!

[@ntonAnton]

Thank you!

[@chocopie099]

Love this tutorials! when a generalist is overwhelmed with info this videos really go to the point and explain vital stuff. thank you.

[@karldigitalcontentcreator635]

Superb, many thanks, fantastic tutorial.

[@WaspMedia3D]

Vertex mapping can be so handy for a lot of things - an underused feature IMHO. I use Data channel for a quite a few things - its one of Max's best secret weapon. Everyone should take the time to learn some of it. Excellent topics! Great vid as usual!

[@aleksanderkiralj414]

Fasinating, always something new with 3d max... and of course, tnx for the great presentation.

[@evgeny.nosik.3d]

Very cool trick! Thanks a lot! interesting, how many 3ds max versions ago has this Data channel appeared))

[@ss54dk]

you always give me what I want

[@DanNissn]

have never seen anyone use this before, literally will start using this today hahaha ty! Great vids as always :)

[@hamidsalami7022]

This is super cool trick! thanks a lot!

[@elzacg]

Very useful!! Thanks a lot!!

[@FreeKiLLuminati]

This is very useful man Thanx Alot

[@ivanmiletic5994]

Great bro ! Very useful.

[@L30nHbl]

thanks alot!

[@AbidAli-wu5oh]

Great

[@jpjapers]

Is there a reason you wouldnt use corona curvature map since youre using corona anyway?

[@rajendrameena150]

I think you can add data channel before turbosmooth modifier, is there any issue.

[@johnny5132]

love this mate - awesome video and tutorial well done! Do you think in the future you could do one one scene optimisations on large scenes?

[@RenderRam]

I’ll see what I can do about it, but when it comes to optimizing large scenes, check this video and comments in comment section kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6XKamh5oNSMY68

[@denizaslan9419]

please more tutorails and talk thanks RenderRam

[@speltospel]

why you dont use corona dirt map?

[@bgtubber]

Neat trick! I've never used this modifier because it didn't sound artist friendly, as you already mentioned haha. :) I have a question. Is this useful for extracting an AO pass from complex scenes? How do you apply this to the whole scene? For example, if I have a complex exterior shot. Is this trick feasible for this use case or is it aimed more towards fewer objects and simple scenes?

[@RenderRam]

This trick uses a self shading AO fake, so there’s no interraction with other objects, When it comes to tossing it on a whole scene, I believe that would not produce an effect you’re hoping for, because as shown with that back cushion, different poly densities would produce different resaults

[@bgtubber]

@@RenderRam Oh, I see. Thanks for clarifying. 🙂

[@RenderRam]

@@bgtubber but when it comes to exteriors, there are A LOT of things that can get dirty :D

[@VertexD8]

Thank you!! are you using a fake background?

[@RenderRam]

Yup it is, here’s a short making of kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIi6XqWtisp1is0si=UQKcG3cDOJxqn2Of

[@antoniovoto]

thanks does it work with proxies too?

[@RenderRam]

I haven't tried, but if you collapse it, it will keep that data under that map channel, so that tells me it will work with proxies

[@antoniovoto]

@@RenderRam thanks!

[@Capeau]

Curvature is not the same as ambient occlusion/dirt...

[@RenderRam]

Hi, thanks for the comment! You're right there. I wanted to bring this type of effect closer to the audience with visual term as AO or dirt so that people can relate to it easily with everyday problem solving scenarios

[@rothauspils123]

I think I love you

[@RenderRam]

Hahahahahahahahahgahahahhaahaagaggahaaa

[@hamidsalami7022]

😁

[@adouanehamza]
