Hi! I have a RAC2010 64-bit and i want to render it to 3dsmax2010 64-bit, a simple interior room would be nice to begin with as an example, I already searched and tried earlier steps of it like opening the interior scene view ready for render and export it to FBX file->open 3dsmax-> import..and i'm stuck i dont know the next step for it. PS: I already installed Vray for its method of rendering.... I would understand any explanation on this thread or simply links that helps on this query is highly appeciated Thank you in advance!

Revit and Autodesk FBX are not Vray compatible. Once you import the FBX you must change all the materials and erase the photometric lighting and replace it with vray lighting.

"Revit and Autodesk FBX are not Vray compatible." Hmmmm....alabaster, depends on the version, VRay 1.5 SP4 is now compatible with Revit & Autodesk FBX files.

BTW i have a registered V-Ray Adv 1.50.SP4 installed.. What should i select next? Autodesk Architectural (Revit) or Autodesk Media & Entertainment? Please tell me what's the difference between the two options and what is preferable to select, Please see image below. Thank you for any help you can suggest...

Yeah, it seems that although it preserves the materials from Revit, it loses some settings (brightness,etc.)
