i have tutorials on my website but its under construction, so if u want to check it out the link is Blackartx.weebly(dot)com
hope i helped ya!
oh really? MR’s maya is better than 3Ds max? I thoght they were the same…hehe and don’t worry about the pissed time xD I have been in the same position
but when u understand it its really amazing 
Yeah I was kinda pissed with MR at the time of writing heh.
MR in 3DS Max is kinda unoptimized compare to Maya’s so it was pissing me off.
hahaha ur soo right xD sorry I think I just over reacted a lil to much xD , yeah I know both are good but as u can see xD I’m a MR ” fanboy ” evenso I’m 22
maybie older than u ? 
uhm maybie not
” MR sucks dick ”
well I got angry ‘couse the last part of ur comment
u looked like an ass when u said that
man listen to your self you sound like a fanboy how old are you?
They are both good
All I’m saying is that when you have deadline tomorrow and your ass is on the line you won’t really be enjoying the millions customization MR offers.
can someone help me i would like to have some of the textures and tutorial files for 3ds max i don’t have any i don’t know why but i need some if anyone can help i would appreciate it
and I think Vray sucks…and I don’t like some Vray users becouse they think that they rock…but the true is allmost all of them the only thing they do its setting a cuple of lights and they got the same render results in all their escenes…that’s to boring 4 me…I like to do different scenes effex and the important shit is that I feel so comtrbl having so many contrls in the ilumination,so the resume of all I said is U SUCK ( and long life to Mentalray ) do not ever insult MR SUCKER!!!
that’s ur sad and noobish opinion
MR its alot better becouse u have soo much options posibilities so u can get the render effect u want in different ways.
also as u said with MR u have so much control in the ilumination , the type of control that u dont have with Vray…is not about putting a cuple of light in escene what u gotta do its have all ilumination control of ur escene that way u can get soo fucking good results
NO! and will never be until they fix theyr bugs, minor bugs withing the program and major ones with the plugins, I’m not completly mad to spend a bucket of money on something that doesn’t work flawlessly, that’s why I try to exploit cracked programs first, ps if I’d have to make something serious, the university where I graduated has all the programs I need licensed. So it’s all good, and for now i’ll also try blender and see what’s what just cause I can’t get mad at a free programs lol
This guy should have in my opinion, turned of default lights and used ares shadows for the omni. That from a vray users opinion, would have made it a whole lot better.
I don’t have shadows on mine, once I turned shadows on with the omni light it just casted a massive shadow anywhere below the lamp, which sucks.
Yes it does support Area shadows
my bad
but it’s inaccurate and slow.
actually mental ray DOES support area shadows but you’re too stupid to use it or even search for some basic tutorials.
mental ray gives better result
Don’t mean to be mean, but is your Max license legal?
Hmm that;s strange.
Seriously give it a try you will never look back.
true that Vray (if it would work) it would be easier to set up and use, comes with some cool materials, would have nice virtual camera controls and all the good stuff….but for me, it just didn’t work! (installed the trial from chaos group, it installed fine ,but materials were missing, renders had errors and most times crashed 3ds max on rendering) things that Mental ray never did to me,I still wish that I could use Vray but after all this I’m gonna use what works and that’s Mental Ray
Vray seems to shit all over Mental Ray…
Mental Ray in 3DS MAX don’t even support area shadow which is essential for realistic renderings
Also in Vray most of times all you need to do is throw in one or two lights in the scene and Voila! you have beautiful scene
Where else in MR you need to fiddle with multiple lights and settings get anything decent… and takes 20times more render time.
MR sucks dick.
lol…3ds max 2009 comes with mental ray free.Just look intro the render options, rederer etc
I can’t find mental ray for 3ds max 2009 can someone please leave a link for it.:(
you have good voice and great explanation. Thanks for the tut. I would like to see more on mental ray than vray
