DIG : Rhino models/scene setup for Architectural Illustrations

[Jarek]

Hi Uros,

for the camera match, technically you can just type the same camera/target/lens values from Rhino Vport Properties to 3DSMax camera. But - it is tedious, and will not guarantee a ‘perfect match’ if certain conditions are not met (I mean: the camera angle will be exactly same, but rendered/capture image from Rhino and Max may not overlap pefecty).

See this thread for some more explanation of how to make this work (my last post):

3dsmax Cameras into Rhino/Bongo

I see - if you need a perfect match of Rhino render and Max render, there are more factors than just camera/target positions and lens length, since Rhino output depends on your monitor resolution aspect ratio and your image ratio. The tested configuration that will work for sure (but is a bit crazy, I know) is: Make sure your screen resolution is set to 3:2 (like 1600x1200 or so) and your renderings/screenshots are done in 1.5:1 ratio (i.e. 3600x2400 pix, 3000x2000 pix. etc.). Then you should ge…

I am also attaching a rhp of just the Rhino to Max camera exporter that was a part of the RATTools I released very long time ago, in case anyone finds that useful.

best,
