Set the camera
Use a physical camera with vertical tilt correction, or add a Camera Correction modifier, so verticals stay straight.

GPT Image 2 3ds Max AI Render
Turn 3ds Max viewports and clay renders into finished images with GPT Image 2 in RenderChat. Upload your 3ds Max viewport or clay render, describe what you want, and refine the render in chat.

Drag to compare the 3ds Max viewport or clay render with the GPT Image 2 render. Input is an AI-generated example.
Before you start
Prepare your 3ds Max viewport or clay render
In 3ds Max, the slow part is rarely the model — it is look development. Grab the viewport or render a quick clay pass, then test materials, lighting and styling in RenderChat before you commit V-Ray or Corona time to one direction.
Clean viewport or clay pass
Switch the viewport to Clay or Default Shading and hide the grid (G), or render a fast clay pass with your usual engine.
Capture the image
Tools ▸ Views – Grab Viewport ▸ Grab Active Viewport, or save the clay render, at 2000 px or wider.

Prepare your 3ds Max viewport or clay render
Set the camera, clean viewport or clay pass and capture the image. The checklist above has the details.
Open RenderChat with GPT Image 2
The start button on this page opens a new chat with GPT Image 2 selected. You can also pick it from the model menu in the composer.
Upload and write the brief
Attach the image and say what must stay, then the materials, light, setting and people. Start from an example brief below.
Refine in chat
Ask for changes in follow-up messages. GPT Image 2 continues the same conversation, so a short instruction such as "warmer light, keep everything else" is enough.
Download the render
Download the image at the resolution you chose (1K).
Example briefs
3ds Max briefs to start from
Copy a brief, paste it into RenderChat with your 3ds Max viewport or clay render, and change the materials and mood to match your project.
Photoreal render from this 3ds Max viewport. Keep geometry, camera and furniture positions. Dark green marble reception, brushed brass details, warm cove lighting, terrazzo floor, evening ambience with a few guests.
Turn this 3ds Max clay render into a photoreal kitchen. Keep the layout. Matte sage cabinets, honed white marble worktop, oak floor, daylight from the left, styled with a fruit bowl and cookbooks.
GPT Image 2 in RenderChat
Working with GPT Image 2
OpenAI's GPT Image 2, run in RenderChat as a native conversation through OpenAI's Responses API, so follow-ups continue the same image thread.
- Useful as a comparison point against GPT Image 2.5 on the same model view.
- Keep one design change per message so you can tell which instruction moved the image.
Quality check
What to check before you share it
- Cabinet and panel divisions against the clay render.
- Light fixtures you modeled — name them in the brief if they should glow.
- Small decor that the AI may add or remove; ask for it explicitly either way.

FAQ
GPT Image 2 3ds Max questions
Is GPT Image 2 available on the free plan?
GPT Image 2 is available on the Pro plan. On the Free plan you can use GPT Image 2.5 and Nano Banana 2.1.
What resolution does GPT Image 2 render at?
GPT Image 2 renders at 1K in RenderChat, with auto + 10 fixed ratios.
Can I keep refining a GPT Image 2 result in chat?
Yes. GPT Image 2 runs as a native conversation in RenderChat, so each follow-up continues from the previous turn. Short edit instructions work well.
How do I select GPT Image 2 in RenderChat?
Use the start button on this page — it opens a new chat with GPT Image 2 selected — or choose it from the model menu in the chat composer.
Can I use a V-Ray or Corona clay render as input?
Yes. A clay render is an excellent input because it carries soft shadows and form without committing to materials.
Will this replace my final V-Ray or Corona render?
Use it to decide the direction quickly. When the image must match the model exactly, finish it in your renderer.
Try GPT Image 2 on your 3ds Max viewport or clay render.
Open RenderChat with GPT Image 2 selected, upload your 3ds Max viewport or clay render and start from one of the briefs above.
