There are two approaches to working with Maxwell materials in formZ:
...
| Use formZ Shaded materials and let the plugin automatically translate them into Maxwell materials. This approach is fast and easy, and perfect for production projects where meeting a tight deadline is more important than perfectly accurate materials |
...
...
| Use Maxwell Materials (MXM files) directly. This approach allows you to leverage the full power and realism of Maxwell materials. Each formZ material can be set up to reference a unique MXM file |

All options are located in the Maxwell tab of Material Parameters.
