OCIO COLOUR MANAGEMENT
OpenColorIO (OCIO) is now supported. This colour management standard is fine-tuned for motion picture production with a focus on VFX and computer animation. The past few years have seen a significant uptake in DCC applications introducing support for this standard. 3ds Max’s adoption will help to enforce a standard colour management methodology in these pipelines.
