With full support for NVIDIA RTX cards, over time, V-Ray 5 for Cinema 4D is expected to be in line for regular increases. Artists can now optimise their own hardware set-up, rendering on GPUs, CPUs or a combination of both. The same V-Ray GPU architecture that made GPU rendering twice as fast in V-Ray Next is now available for Cinema 4D. Moreover, V-Ray automatically adjusts the ISO value without changing the F-stop or shutter speed, which allows the artist to control depth of field and motion blur separately.ĪI denoising has also been added to support noise-free updates at interactive speeds, giving immediate insights into lighting adjustments. By looking at the entire scene, V-Ray automatically determines the proper exposure and white balance in the way a modern camera would. For example, the Adaptive Dome Light (ADL) can produce more accurate environment lighting much faster than before.Īlso, familiar point-and-shoot-style photographic functions like Automatic Exposure and Automatic White Balance are now part of the V-Ray Physical Camera, which makes achieving a render similar to taking a snapshot. To avoid lengthy set-up times, V-Ray 5 for Cinema 4D comes with automatic scene analysis tools that will help artists produce faster, cleaner renders with no extra effort. Users can now combine and grade render passes, set blending modes and adjust colours without using separate compositing software. Once the right results are achieved, artists can save their settings and parameters, send the layers to compositing and update the lights in their scenes retroactively.Ī new Layer Compositor will allow compositing renders directly in the VFB. Colour and light intensity can now be adjusted immediately in the new V-Ray Frame Buffer (VFB), without having to render again. Using Light Mix, artists can create a series of lighting scenarios from a single render.

It also means that Chaos developers will be able to update the software at the same pace as the other V-Ray integrations. Chaos Group’s V-Ray 5 for Cinema 4D is a large scale upgrade that packages all developments from V-Ray 5 and V-Ray Next into one renderer, and includes built-in compositing, interactive light mixing and scene intelligence tools.
