3ds Max ships with four default sets: ■ Max contains the set of default settings for general animation use without the mental ray renderer on page 6230. ■ Max.mentalray contains the set for general animation use with the mental ray renderer. ■ DesignVIZ contains the set for design visualization use without the mental ray renderer. ■ DesignVIZ.mentalray contains the set for design visualization use with the mental ray renderer. Highlight any of these sets to see detailed explanations of the affected settings. For information on creating or editing defaults sets, see Market-Specific Defaults on page 7694. NOTE To apply new defaults, restart 3ds Max. UI Schemes This list contains all of the UI schemes defined in the \UI folder. 3ds Max ships with two UI schemes: DefaultUI, and ModularToolbarsUI, which has the main toolbar on page 7499 broken up into smaller toolbars. Highlight the name of the UI scheme in the list to see a description (and image) of the interface. This list also contains any UI schemes you have saved with the Save Custom UI Scheme dialog on page 7725. However, no description or image is displayed for these schemes. Set Applies the selected default settings and UI scheme to 3ds Max. NOTE To apply new defaults, restart 3ds Max. Cancel Closes the dialog without applying any changes. Market-Specific Defaults 3ds Max is used in many different professional markets, including film, design, and visualization, and games. The workflow and performance requirements for users from these markets vary tremendously. As a result, different default settings are ideal for different types of scenes. For example, a typical animation scene has a small number of lights; shadow maps on page 8125 provide a fast, accurate solution to generating shadows.
