3rd version of Project Manager gains a lot of new features to manage 3D Assets. 
What is most unique to the new features – is the ability to assign custom previews to materials, associate files with materials, and create a gallery of files associated with any type of assets including materials. 
You can also write a description for materials and, of course,  assign categories to materials.

Using the FilePathFinder you can be sure that you have complete control over external links into your scenes.

Asset tracking features include support for XREF files and easy linking with external files.

Using the FilePathFinder (and Batch Render&Relink), you can search for missing assets and relink external files.

In addition, files that are linked to selected objects are displayed in Interactive Mode, and bitmap textures can be toggled and placed within the Material Editor.

Also with this tool, you can easily make an archive a 3ds Max scene.

Note that FilePathFinder supports the highest number of asset types of any plug-in.

 

The Batch Render&Relink tool helps manage your asset files into the 3D model and material libraries in Batch Mode.

BR&R is capable of rendering thumbnails for 3D models, materials, and IES photometric files.

Batch Mode makes for an easy way to gather and compile many assets at once.

The new version of FilePathFinder is released with support to 3ds Max 2025

At 1st Stage is calculated LightCache in Fly-through mode and

Irradiance Map in incremental add to current map mode for the entire scene,

while 2nd Stage is the final rendering.

This approach allows for all frames receive the same high-quality Irradiance map in less time.
For more information see topic Rendering a walk-through animation from Vray tutorial.

Main Features:

  • Rendering in two stages for to obtain better results in less time.
  • Support for network rendering (BackBurner, Vray Distribute Render, Duma)
  • Ability to exclude from the Global Illumination rendering VrayFur, RPC, some lights and Displace.
  • Automatic creation of animated camera VrayCam.
  • Create subfolders for RenderOutput, RenderElements and irradiance map.
  • Automatized naming LightCache, Irradiance map, RenderOutput and RenderElements.

VrayMultiStageRender v2.0.75

  • Adds ability to auto-convert on the fly Vrimg files to EXR after each frame rendering (supported with network and local rendering)
    It is possible to convert the files into one EXR file with all channels or Render Elements into the separate EXR files.

VrayMultiStageRender v2.0.70

  • Adds ability to exclude objects from rendering per Stage
    (Useful for Exclude from rendering Global Illumination VrayFur,Hair&Fur, Proxy and other Objects)

Isolate Track

Isolate Track

When an object has several “object keyframes” of different parameters at the same frame time (e.g. a morpher with multiple targets, or baseObject’s radius and segments animated), all of these keyframes are displayed as one “grey object key” in the timeline.

Isolate Track popups (under mouse cursor) a rollout that displays all the animatable tracks of the current modifier stack selection, and quickly isolates the selected track keyframes in the timeline.
