V-Ray for 3D Studio Max Features

• True raytraced reflections and refractions
• Glossy reflections and refractions
• Translucency (with volume fog) for creating wax, marble, smoked glass
• Area shadows (soft shadows). Includes box and sphere emitters.
• Indirect Illumination (global illumination, global lighting). Different approaches include direct computation (brute force), and irradiance maps.
• Motion Blur. Includes stochastic sampling approach
• Depth-Of-Field camera effect.
• Anti-aliasing. Includes fixed, simple 2 level and adaptive approaches.
• Caustics (Radiosity)
• G-Buffer (RGBA, material/object ID, Z-buffer)
• G-buffer based antialiasing.
• Reusable irradiance maps (save and load support). Incremental sampling for fly-through animations.
• Motion blur with analytic sampling
• True HDRI support. Includes *.hdr, *.rad image loader with proper texture coordinates handling for both cubic and angular maps support. Map your images directly without distortions or cropping.
• Built-in area lights for physically correct illumination
• Built-in material for faster materials calculations
• Distributed rendering for utilizing all of your studios computers.
• Different camera types: fish-eye, spherical, cylindrical and cubic cameras
• Network license management for using our VRay system throughout your network with less licenses.
