For over a decade Chaos Groups flagship rendering

software, V-Ray,
has set the standard for speed, reliability, ease of use, and
render
quality. With V-Ray 2.0 for Autodesk 3ds Max and
Autodesk Maya,
we have raised the bar once again.
Here are the Top 10 features included in V-Ray 2.0,
soon to become
an integral part of your workflow.

V-Ray RT
Streamline setup time

V-Ray RT is a revolutionary
new rendering engine that
leverages the power of
CPUs and/or GPUs to
provide instant feedback,
streamlining the process
of setting up lighting and
materials. V-Ray RT is built
upon the same solid core
as V-Ray 2.0, making it
seamless to transition
between the two.

VRayCarPaintMtl
Simplify the creation of highly detailed and multi-layered car
paint materials

V-Ray 2.0 introduces the

intuitive new
VRayCarPaintMtl, offering
controls for base paint,
clear
coat, and metallic flakes
within
a single, optimized shader.

Dispersion
Achieve new levels of realism

In V-Ray 2.0, 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.

VRayLightSelect Render
Render once and control lighting in post-production
Element

With the VRayLightSelect

render element in V-Ray
2.0, it is now possible to
separate the contribution
of any combination of
lights into separate
passes. This offers the
ultimate flexibility of
rendering once and
adjusting the lighting
completely and
realistically in postImage courtesy of

Lens
Accurately match the lens distortion of live footage
Analysis Tool

With the new Lens Analysis

Tool,
it is possible to measure and
calibrate the lens distortion
of
live footage and match it
virtually with the
VRayPhysicalCamera.
Camera profiles can be
saved to
a file and loaded any time

VRayPtex node for

Autodesk Maya

Incorporate the next generation texturing tools into your

workflow

V-Ray 2.0 for Autodesk Maya

supports the innovative
texture format Ptex with the
new VRayPtex node. Ptex
greatly simplifies the
texturing process by
efficiently storing any
number of textures
into a single file and
eliminating

V-Ray Proxy
Render a virtually unlimited amount of geometry
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.

The VRayLight Dome
provides a simple, artifactfree solution for creating
image-based lighting.
Its powerful importance
sampling analyzes HDR
images to optimize light
tracing and GI precision.

V-Ray Displacement
Add detail efficiently
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.
