To Create a Panorama

You need at least one camera in your scene to use the Panorama Exporter.

  1. Choose Rendering Panorama Exporter.

    If you use Enhanced menus, choose Rendering Tools (Rendering Set) Panorama Exporter.

  2. On the Utilities panel Panorama Exporter rollout, click Render.
  3. On the Render Setup dialog, set the rendering conditions, and then click Render.
    Tip: For best results, high resolutions might be necessary. We recommend a resolution of 2048x1024 or higher unless you're working on drafts.

    3ds Max renders a series of views, which it uses to construct the panorama.

    Panorama Exporter creates a 360-degree spherical rendering.

  4. When the rendering is done, the Panorama Exporter Viewer displays.

    Use the Viewer to navigate the panorama, or to export it to a file.

    You can also use the Viewer to open previously saved panoramas.

Note: The A360 Cloud renderer provides another way to create a panorama. This feature is independent of the Panorama Exporter utility.
