V-RayMtl Converter converts the source materials into other specified material with the maximum possible preservation of the basic properties of the material, such as diffuse, specular, opacity including filter , glossiness, roughness, bump, displacement, selfillumination emission , translucency, reflection, refraction. Also, all the textures that are used for the above parameters are saved.

As for special procedural maps, they are converted only if there is an analogue. Otherwise, procedural maps are baked into textures or removed if the resulting materials can be used without them.

Process of installing the " V-RayMtl Converter 3 " is very simple and does not require any special knowledge. After downloading the archive you need to unzup the VrayMtlConverter3. You can move this button to any place convenient for you or assign "hot keys" for run this script.

If you are using switching color space in the VRayBitmap texturemaps, then the image files do not need to be renamed. It will be enough in the render settings to check and, if necessary, disable "Auto RGB primaries for VRayBitmap texture" and set the corresponding color mode. Thank you for the reply and the docs on chaos site just gives an overview of it but nothing in-depth or any proper tuts for it.

I think we have to wait till some guy someday makes an in-depth tut for it like if you have 's of textures which are different for different projects then practically how to rename each one of them in a short time without wasting time renaming them individually or some work around where you just do settings and everything is in that particular color space, because the videos that are available online some of them say to rename the bitmaps in the required color space for Vray to recognize them but they don't get that to rename 's of texture is a task and a person will go insane doing that where as in their videos they hardly have texture maps so its easy for them to say that.

Switching between color space modes is not part of the material conversion process. This is a separate feature, so this option is located in the " Advanced Fix " section. If the function detects that this maps are used in the corresponding slots - diffuse, reflect, refract, translucency, SSS etc. If these maps are used in other slots - such as bump, displacement, roughness, anisotropy etc.

Hi, I had a quick question After converting the bitmaps or maps to ACEScg through the new option in the Vray Material convertor do i have to still change any map settings manually like for a bump map or HDRI etc or will the conversion take care of it automatically.

I am asking this because in certain videos that are available online the values mismatches for certain map types I have started using ACES for 3dsmax and Vray so i want to be absolutely sure before i switch my entire workflow. This option is available since version 3.

Tip for the future: Never save a scene after converting materials or after any major changes in the scene over the original scene, always save this scene in a new file. I know but it was late as I did that accidentally and I saved the scene. The professional tool for automating such a time-consuming process as converting of materials and other scene components lights, cameras, proxy etc from different renderer engines into V-Ray, as well as to reverse the conversion of V-Ray materials into Standard materials which is very useful for game developers, 3d modelers, etc.

This next generation version was launched after the version 2. V-RayMtl Converter converts the source materials to other specified material with the maximum possible preservation of the basic material properties, such as diffuse, specular, opacity including filter , glossiness, roughness, bump, displacement, selfillumination emission , translucency, reflection, refraction.

Also, all the textures that are used for the above parameters were saved.
