Supported maps cannot be used on bumps？

[q976431]

Example: I saw in the help document that vantage supports 3dsmax's noise and checker
But when I give it to the Vray standard material diffuse, the generation takes effect
There is no effect when it is given on the bump


Attachment 001: normal on diffuse reflection
Attachment 002: bump - failed
Attachment 003: check or After noise is rendered into maps, it is imported through bitmap, which is normal
I'm not sure if other maps are also problematic. I didn't test that much. Please tell me if I used the wrong way?

Hi q976431,

Procedural maps (such as noise, cellular, checker, tiles, etc) are not supported in bump, only static(bitmap) texture maps are currently supported. We plan to fix this in the future but no ETA. We will update the docs accordingly.

Best regards,
Alexander

Is there any way to make dynamic water surface?
Maybe you can automatically generate water surface wave animation in the future?

I also found a problem
Sequence maps (. IFL) do not appear to be supported at this time
This usage is very common in, such as making LED screen animation

Yes, support for image sequences has been on our backlog for a while. We will get to it eventually.

I haven't received any updates about vrayfor3dsmax and vantage for a long time. Will a new version be released soon?

[npg]

Yes, we do release updates for Vantage at least once every few months. We have already implemented support for normal maps and it will come with update 1.7.0.

Can't comment on V-Ray for 3ds Max updates.

Thank you for replying to my message in your busy schedule
I'm looking forward to the release of the latest version
