Can't you just save as the file as .3ds and open it in 3dsmax?

Abdulrhman,

Thank you for the useful post!

I am trying to get this process to work for me as well (it seems all of the new augmented reality tools require everything to be in 3DSMax). For some reason, the mesh seems to be importing with some discoloration for some of the vertices:

My guess is that it might have something to do with the way that the mesh is structured.

If you get the chance, would you mind posting the mesh that you were able to successfully send over to 3DSMax? If I can get this working on my machine, I can likely build in some code to make this process faster so that you would not need to use the rendervertexcolors.gh but just select a different integer option on bakeIt_.

Thanks again,

-Chris

Abdulrhman,

Thank you very much for the helpful information. Subdivision with weaverbird helped with the export to 3DS Max and, without the need for subdivision, I was able to get perfect renders with V-Ray and colored meshes in this very awesome augmented reality app that I have been playing with recently:

This image mapping workflow definitely seems like it is worth having some code in Ladybug to make it fast. As such, I am going to add in this capability on bakeIt_ once I get the chance:

I'll post any updates that I have on that github issue.
