“And the best part is whatever tool you choose, the same lights, materials and scene setups will apply down the line, so designers never lose momentum.”
#Turn on sun in vray rhino update
“Whether it’s real-time ray tracing with Chaos Vantage or game-quality graphics with V-Ray Vision, this new update makes it easier to apply real time to any stage of the design process,” said Konstantin Gaytandzhiev, V-Ray for Rhino and SketchUp product manager at Chaos. If designers need higher fidelity, Chaos says they can turn to Chaos Vantage, which can be now directly accessed through a new Live Link.Īccording to the company, with Vantage, even the most complex scenes can be explored in fully ray-traced real time with no extra setup. New features for V-Ray 5.2 include: shareable 3D scenes where users can package their V-Ray Vision scenes for others to experience in real-time 3D on their own machine video recording, where users can record their real-time experiences directly to video to share walkthroughs and presentations support for sun animations, grass and photometric IES light profiles and ‘highly efficient instancing’ where scenes using multitudes of instances, such as forests, grass fields, packed parking lots and more, can now continue to operate at real-time speeds. The latest update expands on its core feature set, bringing more options into its ‘always-on’ viewport. It is designed to serve everything that comes before a final render.
Launched earlier this year, V-Ray Vision offers a real-time view of a Rhino or SketchUp model that updates while you work. With V-Ray 5.2 users can now share explorable 3D scenes in a click and get ‘instant access’ to real-time ray tracing within the CAD toolsĬhaos has added new real-time viz workflows to V-Ray 5 for Rhino and V-Ray 5 for SketchUp, with ‘dozens of improvements’ to V-Ray Vision and a new Live Link to Chaos Vantage.
