here is some info can it be true ???

You can't see it in the scaled-down screenshot above, but the elapsed render time running on three GTX 480s was 0.9s—even with the existing noise, that's very impressive. V-RayRT will be out in fall and available as a free addition to V-Ray in a service pack for both Maya (on all platforms) and Max for Windows. It's based on OpenCL.

i read this over at arstechnia.com


seems some one spilled the beans.... and did my eye deceive me with the free ???

There was no talk about pricing. So I don't know who said anything was going to be free. I did ask several people from Chaos Group about pricing and they said that information will be publicly available in the coming weeks. So I would stay tuned and I am sure once they get back to home base that they will have more information to share with us.

If it is indeed "free", I imagine it would be as a part of the VRay 2.0, and thus you'd still be up for the upgrade cost from 1.5->2.0, which is totally awesome and brings it in line with Modo, Final Render, etc. in the way they bundle their offline and realtime renderers together.

[hellobard]

wait, does this mean that VRay RT will be a part of Vray? So one license for both instead of paying to also get Vray RT?

[Donald2B]

There was definitely no talk of combining the RT with normal VRay. Unless I missed something.

There will be more info on what goes where and for what price very soon; we are just figuring out the final details now.

Best regards,
