Thanks for answering!!
i have another couple of questions!
I dont get this since my english is a bit poor sorry, am I able to use multiple 3d softwares for the composition ? I am aware i cant use Photoshop, but what about if i use Zbrush, or maybe 3 or 4 different 3d softwares for modeling and detailing ?

For example -> model an object in maya -> model another in 3dsmax -> detail in zbrush -> import everything in XSI and render it out with MR.

Thanks for answering

Yes you can do detail; modify with another 3d application before render

I am sorry, but I dont understand this 2 items:

* you can use premade models for the enviroment like trees, bushes, furnitures etc.
* it is not allowed to use evermotion models or any other models that are licenced

What is 'any other models that are licensed' ? Can I use like Speedtree for example? Can I used images that are mapped onto a plane (billboard entourage)?

[Edi_W]

workaholic - yes you can

vray4softimagexsi - you can use as many softwares as you want

MikeJohnson - this time only an exterior scene

e76cfubr - if youmade a new thread in the competition sextion then yes you are in

mkashifafzal - yes evermotion users do nto have to register

"Meaning that i can submit my entry any time before the deadline without mentioning my intent to join prior to submission. Right????" yes

can i use evermotion models & shaders?

[Edi_W]

As it is in the rules no you can not use any licenced models that includes evermotion, but you can use free models from our free stuff and othr free models that are available on the net.

One more thing to the new users of evermotion - THE THREADS OF ALL NEW EVERMOTION USERS NEED TO BE MODERATED FIRST SO THE THREADS WILL BE NOT VISIBLE UNTIL ONE OF THE MODERATORS WILL CHECK IT FOR SPAM

1 - the evermotion textures can be used?
2 - you can put furniture inside, as curtains and furniture?

I think Photoshop is not allowed is a good idea. This will show the real lighting/rendering skill of an artist.

Goodluck everyone.

So, I'm struggling with the whole--no licensed products thing. If its a rendering competition, why not use entourage you have purchased? I'm not a people or tree modeler, I do renderings. But rules are rules. I know I'm probably in the minority with that issue on this site.

That being said, can I use the foliage tool in max to create trees, then convert them to meshes once I win the competition?

hi, im getting some errors when i try to modify the model. Anyone else? for example, when i try to separate the water plane from the hole mesh maya crashes, or just when i delete one of its faces it also crashes. Probably has to do with my computer but as i have this kind of issues with .obj files i was wondering if it could be posible to get a more apropiate format, in my case .mb. Probably max users will prefer .3ds.

[On Graphics]

ok, dont need for new format, i just open it in max and export it to .fbx. now i can work around. i dont understand why maya (for mac) keeps importing so badly any other format other than .fbx or .mb, its i pain is the ass for me as an architect. Now im ready for competition, good luck to everybody

Also, I get the whole no photoshop thing, but does that mean the sky too? Can we at least replace the sky in photoshop?
