This set of plug-ins was created to improve the connection between Maxwell Render and Nuke, allowing Nuke to import MXI high dynamic layered renders, and adjust the light intensity and color in a similar way to the MultiLight feature in Maxwell Render. It includes the following modules:
- MXI reader. Allows Nuke to read MXI files (with all the information contained in it, including independent emitters and render channels) as any other file format (EXR, PNG, etc).
- MXI mixer node. Mixes all the independent emitters' information into a single image allowing independent adjustment of each emitter intensity (to produce precise color correction during the compositing process). It uses the Multilight feature of Maxwell Render.
- MXI render node. Allows the user to resume the render from Nuke.
- MXI mask node. Creates masks based on the object/material ID buffers
- Color Adjustments script. Allows intensity and color adjustment of each independent emitter present in the sequence, created to mimic the intensity and Color adjustment in MultiLight.
