Learn how 3ds Max Physical Material unifies metalness, roughness, clearcoat, and subsurface scattering into a single shader for faster, cleaner product renders.
Add a Physical Material node in 3ds Max, set Base Color, Metalness, Roughness and optional Clear Coat, then render with ART, Arnold or V-Ray Next for realistic PBR surfaces.
Learn how to replace legacy 3ds Max materials with the unified Physical Material for consistent viewport‑to‑render results when using Arnold.
