DESCRIPTION
Arnold renderer is a powerful rendering engine that ships with every copy of 3ds Max. The special Arnold lights that come with Arnold are very powerful, and very equivalent to other high-end render engines like Vray or Corona. I even like them a little better in some ways. In this tutorial, you can see their power, and learn all the settings you need to know to start creating realistic lighting in 3ds Max without any additional plugins needed.
