The test scene is also available in the MaxToLux test scene and you need to reinstall the plugin to make it work correctlly.

Fix the issue with hidden instance objects and tweak the default parameters for IBL lighting to start with. Add full support for Body Object.
The uv part still needs investigation because there is no normal Uv set available and perhaps it's some kind of Pixel paint or face mapping.
The very early result:

updated nightly build is available in github https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/MaxToLux/issues/69 just replace the dlr in plugin folder and enjoy a much better rendering with IBL.

The new build is available with many bug fixes and better support for IBL, Caustic, Body objects, and instances. I'll add documentation later.
