Oh my, that character animation pipeline part made me jump in excitement! Development on animation in 3ds Max is very much needed, so happy to see something's being actually done!
nice video and nice stuff coming out from people! I hope the new animation features as well as the new track view autodesk showed in production will one day come out. I don't know if you have mentioned before in 3ds is only for archviz. But I was at a presentation talk for Blue Eye samurai on Netflix - I was very suprised the entire series is made and rendered in 3ds max. Very nice cartoon rendering. Worth mentioning :)
3ds max + Maya modeling team is a very bad idea. The team will now likely only pursue development that will apply to all tools simultaneously. Additionally, as Maya's modeling function was lacking, development for Maya will also proceed. In the end, 3ds max will just lose its competitiveness.
Well.. compare Retopology in Maya and Max. Compare Boolean in Maya and Max. Compare Smart Extrude in Maya and Max. It might use same tech. But, somehow Max is better.
Truth, Maya's not at all a good modeling tool compared to 3ds max, but maybe a shared effort will speed things up on modernizing some of max's now outdated tools. 3ds max should get some of Maya's animation stuff in return.
Maya direct modeling tools are more modern than those found in Edit Poly. With some push in the nondestructive modeling side it's easy to see how overpowering will get.
@@peterblake988 that was so much fun, really great team of people involved but definitely funnest project of the year getting to do blood and gore every day!
Awesome I always look forward to seeing the amazing work that talent artists create and learning about development in the software and plugins. Always feel inspired and less of the shiny object syndrome from other software!
AI is a buzzword. It will be a very long time before generative AI can compete with actual artists. The imagery shown is all done by people. Generative AI simply splices together a folder of prerendered images.
If AI can be as creative as human, we must improve our creativity and standard. Remember when photography reduced the income of many dull painters in the past
Yeah, I can understand using some of that for pure idea generation or seeking inspiration, similar to browsing for reference images on google, but people generally seem to be happy with the prospect of AI doing things FOR them entirely, and this is where I strongly disagree.
I don't think they will create it soon, since 3DS max never had a good render engine, until recently (2016) they bought ARNOLD. People (My self as well) always used V-Ray which is another plugin.
Back then, there were some really good texturesin the World Creation Toolkit, that you would see in even some high profile projects and recognize they were made with 3dsmax, and I sometimes miss them despite all the AI texture making tools and Substances. :D
Thank you for the very good news from 3DsMax I get excited for this video every month 🙏 It seems that TyFlow can be a good alternative to ThinkingParticles, but in my opinion, destroying objects in TP and creating a realistic feeling in physics Sim in TP plugin is at a higher level. TyFlow is more suitable for motion graphics now.
When something is realtime and photoreal, it always will be. Unreal is there, blender is almost there, and they are free. Autodesk makes buildings. Apple is a phone company. Adobe faces serious competition for the first time. Disruption opens opportunities.
Yeah we had a demo few months ago on new features and I made a joke are they going to unveil new animation tools anytime soon, because max is not the greatest for animation (I hate track view). Low and behold the demo was actually all animation tools, which I was not expecting
Does the stagecraft/3ds max inegration use some kind of real time renderer? Unreal? Chaos Vantage maybe? Something new? Or is it more for asset/scene prep rather than realtime on set rendering?
Looking forward to your thoughts on the 3dsmax 2025.1 update and everyone else's, too within the next 2 days :))). It seems even a week after it's release nobody has published a video yet, which is kind of strange? However, looking at the amount of updates and new features in this release, it is probably not surprising and it seems finally everyone, including Autodesk have pretty much given up ad moved on to more exciting things in life now? It seems even fewer new features/updates than in the 2025.0 release!? Or am I missing a point here?
Changsoo did a couple of videos and me too in patreon. This month news video is also live in patreon, will be public tomorrow. The new update is small, but its also only 1 month and a week since max 2025 release.
@@andvfx yea, ok but before it was quite a long period before 2025.0 and 2024.3 was completely skipped…. So I believe others also mentioned that everyone already had high hopes for 2025.0 and people were rather disappointed then….sonthe hopes for 2025.1 were extremely high, or am I completely mistaken here? Some things a bit faster than in the previous update and a new noise map seems rather unmotivated by the development team to me…. Or again, am I asking for too much too fast here?
@@timothyschreiber 2024.2 was quite a big update, basically they had to skip one point release and was the combined of two point releases in 1. But yes, I am with you that the last 2 versions has been quite underwhelming.
AI tech would be useless, because 3ds Max is a bloated DCC software with a predatory subscription model that will lock us out of our projects if we don't pay regularly
WOW!! I'm proud to mentioned in this video, I always follow this channel because 3ds max runs through my veins heheheeh
You are the best!!!
Thank you very much Eloi for mentioning our Showcaser plugin and 'Get Materials' script. Very cool stuff for this month! Great work as always! ❤
I'm surprised they decided to mention the Character Pipeline development. Great video Eloi!
Oh my, that character animation pipeline part made me jump in excitement! Development on animation in 3ds Max is very much needed, so happy to see something's being actually done!
Great video as always! I had to laugh when the ad for a Disney job came by: NO THANKS!! 😆 That is currently the last company I would want to work for.

Really? That's fantastic!

Once again, Maya is being shoved with tools from 3ds Max. What about the reverse action? Where is our Bifrost?
They should just put out a single release with both sets of functions, and then streamline that going forward.
Truth, Maya's not at all a good modeling tool compared to 3ds max, but maybe a shared effort will speed things up on modernizing some of max's now outdated tools. 3ds max should get some of Maya's animation stuff in return.

Great stuff Eloi!
oh cool you showed our shogun stuff! Yeah all max/vray/phoenix, go refuge vfx!
Hello, can you do me a favour? Can you do a tsunami in 3ds max? If u want@@AllanMcKay
@@AllanMcKay so gory, but so good

Rejoice. The de-valuation and removal of human creativity is here now, everyone is clapping.

Nice, but i still waiting 3Ds Max would have viewport engine like Eevee... 😬
It's been a long time since EEVE made anyone dream.
@@peterblake988 Not true.
Last night I dreamed of Eevee.

thanks! for the work you put always on this vids for us Max users nad inspire new users
It would great if they would combine both 3ds max and maya funtionality then that would solve the decade old question of which to choose
Is there a video or article somewhere that showcases the upcoming character pipeline? I'm very curious! Thanks!
I'm waiting something like Transfer attributes like in Maya
U should explain steps by step how to install and use AI tydiffusion Rendering
Gracias!!!
this is awesome!!!!! thanks
Thanks a lot Eloi! Great news! Hugs!

Looks like max future getting strong in animations tools.

@@AllanMcKay I’m Max animator and I feel max it’s still super strong . This new tools looks amazing. I can’t wait.
@@Maxdesign3d that’s great! And yeah I am glad of the animation improvements, definitely welcome!
@@AllanMcKay Hey, "the" AllanMcKay :) I watched so many tutorials from you, back in the day.
@@RealTimeFilms cheers mate yeah fond memories of all that stuff back in the early max days!
Nice job as always
Is there a place where I can learn Tyflow as a complete beginner, and possibly buy pre-made Tyflow scenes I can customize to my needs?
I cover most tyflow learning resources here: www.andvfx.com/tyflowlearning/
Thank You Eloi
useful video!
thanks Eloi!

Awesome Vid Eloi as usual !
guys blender or maya ?? whoo better in cgi and 3d environment movies ?
Thanks❤
top as usual ! thanks ;)
Lot of exciting news in this vid :)
I always thought they would merge Max and Maya, in the future.. I know they are too different markets.
Whcih Movie was Blender even used for again ??? lol !! 3dsMax is the Industry Standard
I cant wait to wait an additional 30 seconds for max to load for another useless feature!!!?
Can 3dmax achieve bio-binding like maya zvia
Майя для анимации, Zbrush для лепки, для чего 3ds max?
Where AI tydiffusion ?How to download?I Can’t find.it’s a fake?
Its a preview is not out yet.
@@andvfx ok
@@andvfx How many months will it be out?
@@tinko8903 I dont know, but normally when tyson shows something he is working out, he releases it in a month or two.
@@andvfx ok
nah 10yrs later maybe... autodesk... 3ds max...
🤯🤯🤯
Wait
Wtf
People still uses Max?
AI tech would be useless, because 3ds Max is a bloated DCC software with a predatory subscription model that will lock us out of our projects if we don't pay regularly
Every package of subscription, every software, Photoshop is a yearly subscription
@@AllanMcKay Yeah, that's why I'd prefer to use Affinity Photo and GIMP for my personal stuff. Unfortunately, Affinity have been acquired by Canva
Amazing Tools, Amazing as always, Thanks a lot.
