Max 2025.3 When 'Tilt & Shift' is used in camera (VRay Physical Camera), the camera grid/view plane gets offset sometimes. See the pic (private info blurred). Even though my model is aligned in the viewport, when I comp the renders into the background image, the render is offset by that same amount. It doesn't match like it does in the viewport and I have to nudge things up or down. Camera matching to g o o g l e street views can be a pain because they are stitched together and displayed as hemispherical, making them awful for 'Perspective Matching'. I end up having to fake the camera position to fit the model into the image. I don't always need to Tilt or Shift, so I'm not entirely clear why or under what circumstances it causes the viewport frame and camera plane to mismatch when relatively more extreme adjustments are made. The camera in this scene has been physically tilted down, then both camera height and vertical shift were adjusted until the perspective mostly matched (mostly). This is far from the actual street view camera, which is typically at ~10' high and gyroscopically level. The view ratio is the same, I just can't figure out why this happens. Would ultimately like to find out if there are ways to avoid it.

Ten years ago I assembled this: this PC has supported me for ten years, I changed the motherboard a year ago because its first version burned out a summer ago. this pc was the basis for rendering and the bottlenecks were the rtx 970 which doesn't do cuda and the giga. Those who do 3D need RAM, a lot of it is needed for complex models. However that work ended until 2018 here www.carlonarducci.com but to date I have not renewed the 3d studio max, and vray and teaching licenses. Today I'm going towards this solution: the figure is similar to that of 10 years ago. I have many doubts but the first to be resolved is the GPU. I'm seeing a lot of... Read more
