V-Ray for 3ds Max 2018 Highlighted Features
V-Ray Adv V3.60.03 introduces a hybrid rendering mode that leverages both GPU and CPU performance for faster rendering. This update also supports NVidia NVlink, allowing compatible GPUs to share memory. The software now includes complete lighting selection render elements, which enables users to extract the influence of each light source post-rendering for precise control over reflections and refractions in post-production.
Additionally, the new Cryptomatte feature, developed by PsyOp, offers automatic ID mask generation, supporting motion blur, transparency, and depth of field. This powerful tool generates channels for detAIled adjustments with ease.
Chaos Group continues to refine the integration between hardware and software to enhance rendering speed. The latest version is packed with optimizations that cater to both efficiency and quality.
Core Functionalities
V-Ray offers an extensive suite of rendering tools, including:
- Realistic ray-traced reflections and refractions
- Glossy reflections and refractions
- Area shadows (soft shadows) with BOX and SPHERE emitters
- Indirect illumination (global illumination) with various methods
- Camera depth of field effects
- AntiAliasing
- Multi-channel rendering
- Wireframe pattern decorations with ray-tracing
- Support for real HDRI textures
- Reusable light maps
- Previews in the material editor
- V-Ray sun and sky
- Physical camera
- Support for network rendering on 10 machines
- Global light, background, emission, and refraction
- Double-sided materials for easy creation of transparent effects
- Animation support
Frequently Asked Questions
For setting up the V-Ray renderer, users should consider the following:
- Set the resolution appropriately for quick renders
- Adjust global parameters and turn off default lights
- Configure antialiasing settings
- Set up GI parameters for primary and secondary bounces
- Customize light maps and buffer settings
- Adjust the sampler settings for noise reduction
When it comes to lighting, users should be aware that enabling or disabling the global default light will affect the final render output, potentially causing overExposure if not managed correctly.
Latest Version Highlights
With the release of V-Ray for 3DS MAX 2018, users can experience up to 20-50% faster rendering speeds for most scenes. The new version 3.4 introduces adaptive sampling for quicker setup, uniform noise distribution, and less dependence on light and material settings.
