V-Ray 1.5 for Rhino, upgrade now

V-Ray 1.5 for RhinoSome of the key features of the new V-Ray 1.5 for Rhino

V-RayRT® - A revolutionary rendering engine providing instant feedback and streamlining scene setup. Because V-Ray RT is built upon the same robust core as V-Ray, it is seamless to transition between V-Ray RT and production rendering.

Dome Light - Create simple, artifact-free image-based lighting using the Dome Light. Its powerful importance sampling analyzes HDR images and optimizes light tracing and GI precision.

V-Ray Proxy - An indispensable tool for managing scene memory and efficiently rendering massive amounts of geometry. V-Ray Proxy objects are dynamically loaded and unloaded at render-time, saving vital RAM resources.

Lens Effects (Glare / Bloom ) - Simulate the natural lens effects that occur when photographing highlights.

Dispersion - Trace and refract light based on its wavelength.

Retrace Threshold - Reduce Light Cache artifacts and improve the appearance of glossy reflections and refractions when using the time-saving feature. Use light cache for glossy rays.

Ambient Occlusion - Generate shading based on an object’s proximity, and enhance GI details without significantly increasing render time.

VRayDirt - Simulate shading around corners and crevices of objects based on a radial distance. VRayDirt can be used to produce a variety of effects, including ambient occlusion renderings.

Interpolation (Reflections and Refractions) - Accelerate rendering by approximating and caching the effects of glossy reflections and refractions.

IES Light - Use photometric data to provide accurate light definition.

Sphere Light - Create spherically shaped area lights.
