V-Ray for Modo

What is V-Ray for Modo?

Quality: Proven production ray production with a complete set of tools to create professional images and photoneimages

Power: Built to handle the most absolute designs and the biggest scenes.

Speed: Multicore CPU and GPU-accelerated rendering for optimized speed and scalability.

Creative Control: Real-time development with interactive lighting, shading, and rendering.

Intelligent Integration: Seamlessly integrated into MODE and designed to meet any production pipeline.

An industry standard: The best artists and designers rely on V-Ray every day to create award-winning designs and visual effects.

WHAT'S NEW:

Here's what's new in V-Ray 3.5 for MODE:

Adaptive Lights: Fast new lighting algorithm that speeds up to 7x faster rendering in scenes with lots of lights.

Improve GPU rendering: Significant speed improvements, smarter memory management, and support for more production features than ever before.

Surface material: Shader (is the rendering of graphically constructed images in 3D environment, for better definition, resolution and visualization) of general purpose by Anders Langlands with reflections in Layers of SSS and glossy fresnel – popular for the skin.

Stochastic Flakes: Create paintings for cars, snow and sand with procedural brilliance and glitter effects.

Aerial perspective: Simulate natural skies with realistic atmospheric depth.

Render zoom region and enhancement: Zero anywhere in your image to adjust your renders quickly and easily.

VFB Direct Selection : Select items and materials directly from the V-Ray frame buffer for a faster workflow.

MAIN FEATURES:

Twin-engine Performance: V-Ray includes two powerful rendering engines. With CPU or GPU acceleration, you can use the best mechanism for your design and hardware.

Virtual Reality: Render VR-ready content for popular virtual reality headsets.

Global lighting : Choose from hybrid ray and GI-tracked methods for the best balance of quality and speed.

Accurate lights: Accurate and artistic lighting lace with a wide range of light types, shapes and controls.

Physical materials: Create physical materials based on the multi-layered node and add Fresnel (a light equipment that allows you to adjust the focus of light by shifting a lens in front of the light) bright for accurate reflections.

Exclusive shaders: For specialty materials, choose a selection of shaders built specifically for car paint, subsurface scattering, hair, skin and more.

Photorealistic cameras: Simulate any camera and lens with controls for exposure, depth of field and motion blur.

Denoiser V-Ray: Automatically remove noise and reduce rendering times by up to 50%

Proxy objects : Put massive scenes into memory and cut rendering times using load-on-demand proxy objects.

Hair and skin: Import German hair and hair as proxy geometry and render using v-ray optimized hair sound.

Volume processing: Render optimized volumetric effects and import OpenVDB files from Realflow and Houdini.

Render elements: Produce a complete set of beauty, utility, and matte passes for complete control in composition, including deep compositions.

V-Ray frame smoother: Track rendering history, adjust colors, and control the final output of the image using advanced color management.

Interactive lens effects: GPU-accelerated brightness and burst effects that can be activated and adjusted during rendering.
