Animations, Visualizations and Models in Autodesk® 3ds Max® – brought to life in the third dimension and displayed in stereo.

With the SVI MaxPlug-in 2.0 you can prepare three-dimensional content for output to any auto-stereoscopic display – directly in Autodesk® 3ds Max® - without having to process it with external software.

Reap the full benefits of 3D with SVI MaxPlug-in

Existing Autodesk®3ds Max®-data can be rendered for viewing on auto-stereoscopic displays by using the camera as defined in Autodesk®3ds Max®. The SVI Max Plug-in conveniently integrates stereo viewing of 3D material directly into your Autodesk®3ds Max® workflow. It’s fast and hassle-free, which gives you more time to perfect your creations in the actual 3D environment.

Areas of Application

Whether you’re in computer-aided design (CAD), architecture, visualization, technical illustration, animation, film, or education, if you’re working with Autodesk®3ds Max®, you now have real 3D capability. Animations and designs, visual effects and model-proportions can easily be checked and immediately judged for their true spatial impact.

Software-Features

The SVI MaxPlug-In supports versions R7, R8 and R9 32bit/64bit of Autodesk®3ds Max®.

Preview: With a fast rough-preview of the shaded or wire frame models at hand, selected camera parameters can be quickly and easily assessed so corrections can be made prior to rendering the final version. A simple setup enables you to output the scenes in any stereo format and onto any 3D display.

Intuitive Depth Control: Reference planes for the description of the scene’s size give you exact control over depth perception and position of the objects in space.

Network Rendering: The SVI MaxPlug-in 2.0 supports VideoPost-effects and Autodesk®3ds Max®’s NET render.

Efficiency: The stereo image is composed of a series of views, each containing a specified portion of the information used. The SVI MaxPlug-in 2.0 calculates the single views in smaller resolutions for a more efficient use of computing time and power.

Maximum Flexibility: Both the final stereo image and each single view can be saved separately.

Post Production Ready: With SVI Max Plug-in 2.0, it’s now possible to output single image elements like Shadow, Reflection, Opacity, or Z-Depth-Pass, in stereo. The post processing of created materials can then, as usual, be done with any post-production tool available. For the creation of the final stereo-image, simply use the utility integrated into SVI MaxPlug-in 2.0

Output Formats: SVI 3x3, SVI Single/Multi User, red-cyan, SideBySide, X3D/NewSight, Sharp Subpixel Interlacing, SeeReal, and many more.

Requirements

For full compatibility with SVI MaxPlug-in 2.0’s functions, you’ll need a working Autodesk®3ds Max® -work station, with R7, R8, or R9 installed.
For presentation on 3D-displays, we recommend SVI PowerPlayer.

The SVI MaxPlug-in 2.0 can also be purchased in a package with other Spatial View products, among them the Seefront 24 series or the SVI Multiview series of auto-stereoscopic displays.
