Any one know how to fix the shadow under the car?

Is Mental Ray more resource hungry than the likes of Brazil and VRay?

I've seen that effect once before.. when using the frosted reflective floor materials I released for Brazil ages ago. It seemed to get worse the more the box was used while rendering was happening in the background.

Unfortunately I never found out the _real_ reason for this.. maybe it is a setting and not resources, but alas................

It doesn't seems that you have indirect lighting in your secene, the interior look too dark. Did you turn on FG too?

Check the size of your car to start with, (against your world measuring unit) Object too large or too small could results like that.

I think this problem happen on earlier version of max most (i.e. max 7), the newer version of max (i.e. 2008 with newer MR) don't seems to have this problem. However, you still can get round the problem because I had that once too, and I managed to change some settings (can't quite remember what now) and it went away.

Also, I will use the MR light with raytrace shadow. It seems work best in MR. The MR with shadow map sometimes gives you horrible artifacts.

Try download this scene and check my settings if you like, because I had that in this scene then I somehow solved it (or reduced it).

Final Gathering

Thanks Samyip.

I'm gonna have a look at SMCars forum a little later on, to see what I can find out about MR and other render engines.

It's still work in progress, and mazda wheels still doesn't fit it IMO.
Well, anyways, here it is atm ..

rear bumper still missing?
i think the wheels fit, looks straight like a mazda

Lot of people said that there is no need for rear bumper, it looks already good without it, because i added some stuff under car ( Springs, ''transmission'' and stuf .. )

Enlarge wheel arches, soften the front intakes and it's perfect

but... what happened to the wipers?

They are floating in air, lol, i got to work on them.
Well, the idea is like, they are stoped in half way. Dont tell me that you haven't seen it in real life.
Well, thanks about suggestions. I will try !

Just testing studio scene with Jonaz Lindberg skin (Blender)

I want those rims and tyres for 3ds badly.

It might be a good idea to get rid of those 86 lights and make some from the XR's origonal body, like I did.

Wait. Like, you mean, to make same open eye - lights, just with shape of XR's lights are really in game ? Well, thats the same what i thaugh once.
Sorry for my english, lol.

I did upload the XR's with open headlights that I made, you can find them in the Scenes and Meterials thread.

Since it has been a long time since I made something new I decided to finally release my latest work..

Ok, pay some attention. I'm trying to realise your sugestions, looks quite nice.

hello, where i can get those front lights?
