Workflow improvements include a new search filter in the Modifier stack, making it possible to search for modifiers by name. The enhanced retriangulation algorithm introduced for the Editable Poly object in 3ds Max 2023.2 is now also used by the Edit Poly modifier, which should result in cleaner geometry. There are also performance improvements to key modifiers, with the Smooth modifier‘s Auto Smooth option now “at least 10% faster” when working on Editable Mesh objects or with an Edit Mesh modifier.

It is also now possible to incrementally vary transforms applied to the instances generated by the Array modifier, and to assign materials to the instances on a per-face or per-element basis.ģD modelling: performance and workflow improvements The Array modifier introduced in 3ds Max 2023.2 has been extended, with a new Phyllotaxis distribution method to generate spiral patterns like those seen in flowers. Users can control the result by adjusting a Voxel Size parameter, with smaller values resulting in higher output polygon counts, but sharper meshes.ģD modelling and scene layout: updates to the Array modifier Working in this way retopologises the geometry, generating a uniform quad-based mesh. The new modifier also has an OpenVDB meshing option, which converts the source objects to volumes before calculating the Boolean operation, then converts the result back to polygons. Unlike the existing ProBoolean and Boolean compound objects, which it supersedes, it is located in the Modifier stack, making it possible to work procedurally by adding, removing or re-ordering modifiers. It has a range of modes for combining multiple source objects into a single mesh, including Untion, Subtract, Intersect, Split and Merge, and produces “clean geometric output”. New features in 3ds Max 2024 include a new Boolean modifier for Boolean modelling. The update adds a new Boolean modifier for procedural modelling, extends the Array modifier and Slate Material Editor, and introduces experimental support for OCIO colour management.ģD modelling: new Boolean modifier for procedural workflows Autodesk has released 3ds Max 2024, the latest version of its 3D modelling and rendering software.
