Canadian artist Neil Blevins has released the SoulburnAssetLoader (SAL) script, which provides a quick way to merge various assets into your scene from a nice icon-based interface (including Environments that consist of lights and HDRIs, material presets and individual models).
The author came up with the idea by looking at Keyshot, Luxion’s rendering and animation software. While Keyshot offers a nice workflow for quickly swapping materials and rendering them in a realistic environment, it’s quite limiting when you want to do something more complex (like adding rust to an object, for example). Neil’s script aims to help artists achieve in Max the speed Keyshot offers.
Watch a video showing the software at work on YouTube and download the script from Neil Blevins’ site.
Also, 4 asset packs of environments, materials and models have been made available:
3 packs are free, and 1 pack of advanced V-Ray hard surface materials is priced at $9.99.
Download the asset packs.
A message from the artist: “Please consider buying the Hard Surface pack to support the further development of SAL”.
