Select from the Convert tabs whether only the Selected Materials or All Materials are converted.

Replace Assigned Materials – Replaces all the materials that appear in texture tags of objects in the document with the provided replacements in the conversion map.

Convert to Classic – When enabled, converts native Cinema 4D nodes and V-Ray nodes to classic V-Ray materials.

In-place Node Conversion – Reuses the existing node material when converting a node material from a different (non-V-Ray) node space. This allows you to keep the original materials, while getting the V-Ray equivalent.
