How to convert Chaos Group VRay materials to Arnold materials in 3ds Max 2018

Causes:

Currently, the 3ds Max 2018 built-in Scene Converter module does not have a preset to convert Chaos Group VRay materials to Arnold, although it's a much-requested feature.

Solution:

The 3rd-party Universal Material Converter can convert VRay materials to the Autodesk Physical material type, which can then be rendered in Arnold. This material isn't completely feature-equivalent to Arnold's Standard Surface shaders, but this may help transition existing VRay-based scene assets until either Autodesk or a 3rd party developer releases a direct VRay Material to Arnold Standard Surface conversion tool.

Versions:

2017; 2018;

Follow this introductory workflow to create and assign a material to your object.

Click in the status line to open the Hypershade.
Select Window > Viewport from the Hypershade menu to open a viewport panel.
Drag the viewport panel and dock it to any location in the Hypershade that suits you.
From the Create tab, middle-drag the material (for example, Blinn) into the Hypershade work area.
Tip: You can also press Tab in the Hypershade work area and enter the name of your material to create it.
Select your object in the viewport, then right-click the material in the Hypershade and select Assign Material to Viewport Selection.
Click 5 in the viewport to switch to shaded mode.
Your object now appears shaded in the viewport with the material you just created. You can also see your material in the Material Viewer panel on the top-right of the Hypershade.
Select the shader in the Hypershade and adjust its properties in the Property Editor.
For example, click the color swatch beside any of the shader attributes, such as Color, Transparency, and so forth. See the viewport and Material Viewer update in real-time to reflect your changes.
(Optional) Map a texture to any of the shader properties.
In addition to adjusting the color swatch or values of the attributes, you can also connect a texture to any of the shader properties. Click the map button next to an attribute and select a 2d or 3d texture from the Create Shading Node.
Click 6 in the viewport to switch to textured mode to see the texture on your shader.
Tip: To connect an image texture file, map the File node.

Create a material by connecting node attributes

As you perform the steps above, a shader network is created and graphed in the work area of the Hypershade. In lieu of this basic workflow, you can also create materials and textures and connect them via their attributes by dragging connection lines in the work area. In fact, the node editing interface allows you to build more complex and advanced shader networks while experimenting with different textures and procedurals.
