Quick Tiles map plugin for 3ds Max released
Quick Tiles is a new map plugin for 3ds Max that’s been designed to take the pain out of creating large areas of tiles and bricks without repetition. It works by taking an existing texture and “extracting” the individual bricks or tiles from it automatically. These extracted individual bricks can then be reassembled using a number of different tiling patterns.
There are controls for mixing bricks from multiple sources, built-in patterns, importing custom patterns, circular layouts, and randomising the size, positions fillet, tilt, edge distortion, hue, saturation, value, and more. It also comes with a library of scanned source textures with promises of more to come.
QuickTiles is compatible with 3ds Max 2018 – 2021 and V-Ray, Corona, and FStorm. It’s available for rental only at $6 per month or $60 per year. Find out more on the Quick Tiles website.
Rental only… for a plugin like that?
Damned… Is it serious?
Adobe, Autodesk, Chaos…
soon we cannot get money and only pay the rent…
WTF…
Chaosgroup still sells perpetual licenses.
oh… $6 per month.. maybe i will need to rent my house for pay this every month when i need some bricks in my projects. 😏
Yes it’s only $6.00. But What about everthing else. Autodesk, Adobe, Vray, Marvelous designer, Thinking Particles, Yes! Lets not forget Netflix. So when your doing the math your paying a lot in a month. We should have a choice to buy it or rent it.
Again, but you can still buy a perpetual license of Vray.
Ok. But what about the others.
Rental Really!!
Put it where the sun don’t shine!!
Please take my apologies if you find them but I also want to express my full disrespect for this rental behavior……….
Great plugin!
I don’t think that someone needs tool like this in their everyday work, so there is a point in rental only. But of course 60$ per year for this shit is too much.
This is not a shit. No need to disrespect the works from people that you even know who are. You are not forced to use it.
You’re right, probably I could write it a little bit better, my apologies to the author. I have no problem with the work and the person who made the plugin, same time have no respect to the distribution policy and the price. And you’re right I’m not forced to used it but I have my right to comment on it.
I agree, for this kind of plugin, rental, no way!!!!
They could have avoided the controversy by making it $60 to purchase V1 or rent for $6 per month. This makes it affordable to try for three months before buying. Then charge an upgrade prices for V2,V3 etc. Plugins have to be upgraded at least every two years for max.
They can also work on a Maya version and versions for other software that uses V-Ray.
I am available to work to them as a sales consultant. My fee would be $80 per month or $1000 per year. (O-K that doesn’t add up but let’s see if they go for it anyway.)
