Maxwell archicad12/20/2023 ![]() ![]() It might also have to do with the fact that since Vray and Brazil are biased renderers you can disable certain features to allow the realease of a 'crippled' demo, and since Maxwell is unbiased and a real-physics render engine, it's not possible to 'cripple' it without affecting how it calculates light in the rest of the scene realistically. Consequently, that may have something to do with the reason why they can offer free public demos and Maxwell can/does not. Vray and Brazil both run within their host program ( Max) and hence are not stand-alone engines per se ( they both ahve plans for stand-alones coming this fall, but until that changes, you can't run neither without Max). The Maxwell plugins are only model converters that convert the model into Maxwell's mxs format and then open the render engine itself in a separate window to initiate the render. The difference is that unlike Vray and brazil, Maxwell renderer is not a plugin but an independent command line application that runs outside the host program ( Max, Maya, Cinema 4D etc). Possibly, but the beta and alpha versions of VRay and Brazil (starting as 3ds max plugins but getting independent) were free and once the commercial version was finished, they offered both a free demo of the commercial version and a limited freeware version (usually non-commercial). I guess there would be a demo asa it is released. Maxwell is not a final product yet, so there cannot be a demo. ![]()
