Chaos V-Ray is an Academy and Emmy Award-winning 3D rendering software known for photorealistic ray-traced results. It functions as a plugin for major design platforms including 3ds Max, SketchUp, Revit, Rhino, Maya, and Cinema 4D.
Core Features & Capabilities
- Hybrid Rendering: Offers flexible power by using CPU, GPU (NVIDIA RTX supported), or a Hybrid of both simultaneously.
- Scene Intelligence: Automatically analyzes scenes to optimize lighting and sampling, reducing manual setup time.
- Chaos Cosmos: An integrated library of over 11,500+ ready-to-render assets (3D models, materials, HDRIs).
- Post-Production in VFB: The V-Ray Frame Buffer allows for light mixing, color correction, and compositing directly after rendering.
- Distributed Rendering: Accelerates heavy projects by splitting a single render across multiple machines in a network.
Latest V-Ray 7 Highlights
- AI Tools: Includes an AI Material Generator (beta) that converts photos into PBR materials and an AI Enhancer to refine people and vegetation.
