How to Create a Realistic Wood Floor Material in 3DS Max with V-Ray | Archviz Tutorial

In this 3DS Max and V-Ray tutorial, I show you how to create a realistic wood floor material for architectural visualization. This workflow is simple but powerful, and it’s one I use often when creating photorealistic interior renders.

Here’s the process I cover step by step:

• Loading a diffuse wood texture map into the material.

• Setting up reflection and reflection glossiness for realistic surface properties.

• Using a bump map to add depth and surface detail.

• Adding bitmaps into reflection and glossiness slots for variation.

• Adjusting percentage values to achieve the perfect balance of realism.

This method is great for anyone learning 3DS Max materials, V-Ray shaders, and creating photorealistic wood textures for interior design rendering. Whether you’re working on parquet, hardwood, or laminate flooring, the same principles apply.
