I have atached the saved image and the screenshot of the "rendered frame window" of max. I dont know why this is happening.and it is totally spoiling my renders. can someone help me? I am trying to render a sequence and have set max to automatically save each frame as jpeg when it is rendered.(currently only the calc-phase so that I can see and know if theres some problem) and I noticed that the images tht are being saved on my hdd are much darker than they appear in max. please help.I am using vray.

I guess I forgot to post the photos for this...
this image is loking bright enough...

but the saved image turns out to be much darker than this preview..

thanks but no thanks...well I found out why they were looking different. I had enable gamma correction on. and when I turn it off, the final image is exactly as dark as the preview....but now I decide I want the final image to be bright like the preview when the gamma correction was enabled. how can I do that now? any clues u guys?

Hey Yashrg,

I found a tutorial, maybe it's useful:

but in this way, I`ll have to edit every image in vray frame buffer before I save it. I want to be able to save all the images automatically because I`m rendering a video sequence.

I don't know exactly what you mean by 'preview'. But if it's the 'preview' in your environments & effects window, try to turn off the exposure control if it's enabled. Otherwise post an image with your render settings of Vray.

no the preview is the image that I see in the max`s render window. that and the saved image are different.

Maybe you have to save at a higher quality. Normally I would save as .png or .tar file.

yashrg · 08-20-2006, 12:07 AM

I did try saving as tar and tiff. dosent help.
