Sneak Peak Videos - AME 2014 Suite Improvements

CGMETUP has been posting the Sneak Peak videos from Autodesk about the next generation of their Entertainment Creation Suite.  Here are a few you might be interested in:

3ds Max 2014 shows improvements in Mental Ray, in particular adding image-based lighting to the render.  This permits lower Final Gather settings, better bounce effects, and quicker renders.  This will be a big help to those lighting with Photometric lights and using the Arch & Design or the Autodesk Material Library for Mental Ray.  They've also increased speeds in calculating Depth of Field, which also is visible in viewports using the Nitrous driver.



"Populate" will be a big crowd pleaser - literally because it lets you drop in a crowd simulation to show traffic patterns, etc. in environments and buildings.
