Maxwell Render Plugin for Revit

For me, this is huge!  I remember when Revit first integrated the Mental Ray rendering engine and how huge that was... but linking the power of Maxwell Render directly with Revit is a major step for Revit presentation graphics....  Now, I hope this will open the door for other rendering engines :: cough cough :: VRay  :: cough ::....


Revit users can now enjoy this new comfortable and timesaving workflow for editing and rendering scenes, using Maxwell Render directly from the Revit interface. Here are a few of the highlights:
  • Compatibility with Revit 2012 and 2013 - any edition
  • Support for Revit lights including IES
  • Support for many built-in Revit materials
  • Ability to override scene materials with MXM files
  • Maxwell Grass
  • Multilight read-back: changes made to lights in Multilight can be imported back into the Revit scene
  • Easy access to the Maxwell material gallery directly from inside the Revit UI
 For full release notes and plugin user guide please refer to our support center here
 The Revit plugin is free to all of our customers and is available for download now from the customer gateway. If you cannot log-in or do not know your password please contact us here.
