Can I convert vray materials to standard?

[Anonymous]

Is there any option for converting vray materials into standard? I've seen the other way around but nothing to what I'm actually looking for. Do I have to create all the materials again from zero? thank you.

The Physical material or Arnold Material is a better match for a vray material than the standard material, particularly if you are using a PBR workflow.  You might find the Max docs link below helpful.  It includes a link to 2  different converter utilities for converting Vray materials to Physical materials or Arnold materials.

To convert V-Ray materials to Standard materials, you can also use "V-RayMax Converter PRO"

I second that, "V-RayMax Convertr PRO" is really excellent, not very expensive and a life saver over the long haul. I've used it for years and could not function without it.
