V-Ray® RT Streamline setup time V-Ray RT is a revolutionary new rendering engine that leverages the power of CPUs to provide instant feedback, streamlining scene set up and the process of setting up lighting and materials. V-Ray RT is built upon the same solid core as V-Ray, making it seamless to transition between the two. < home Image courtesy of

Lens Effects Thanks to the V-Ray Lens Effects you are able to simulate the natural lens effects that occur when photographing highlights. < home Image courtesy of Lucas Filip Achieve bloom and glare effects in your renderings

Retrace Threshold Using this time saving feature, you are able to reduce Light Cache artifacts and improve the appearance of glossy reflections. < home Image courtesy of Improve the appearance of glossy reflections and refractions

Dispersion Achieve new levels of realism < home Image courtesy of Chaos Group In V-Ray, the VRayMtl includes Dispersion, providing the ability to trace and refract light based on its wavelength. Realism relies on details, and we have added Dispersion to help achieve even more believable results.

V-Ray® Proxy Render a virtually unlimited amount of geometry < home Image courtesy of VRayProxy is an indispensable tool for managing scene memory and efficiently rendering massive amounts of geometry. To enhance viewport performance, VRayProxy now includes the ability to specify a separate preview mesh.

Ambient Occlusion < home Image courtesy of Add realism to local reflection models Generate shading based on an object’s proximity, and enhance GI details without significantly increasing render time.

VRayLight Dome Simplify image-based lighting < home Model of bindings: courtesy of Studio Peter Van Riet Snowboard model and final image: courtesy of Chaos Group The VRayLight Dome provides a simple, artifact-free solution for creating image-based lighting. Its powerful importance sampling analyzes HDR images to optimize light tracing and GI precision.

V-Ray® Displacement < home Image courtesy of Chaos Group V-Ray Displacement implements a unique solution for geometry handling at render time, making it extremely fast and memory efficient. Additional options such as Water Level provide methods of creating elaborate geometry from a simple plane. Add detail efficiently
