The vraysun size multiplier parameter is invalid

[q976431]

Vraysun's size multiplier in 3dsmax cannot be linked in real time
If you adjust the corresponding value of vantage, the size multiplier of vantage will return to the default value of 1 when moving the key frame

Hi q976431,

I cannot reproduce the issue. In my test when I set the size in max and moving the timeline the size stays the same and doesn't resets. Can you please send a video that replicates it?

Best regards,
Alexander

Hello
I may be talking about real-time linkage
The vraysun size multiplier of 3dsmax cannot be linked

I think I may have found a problem. I'm not sure if it belongs to a problem.
When the sun light slot in vraysky specifies the sun light. The size multiplier parameter will no longer be linked in real time
When sun light is not specified or the specify sun node option is turned off, the real-time linkage of the size multiplier parameter is normal

In Vray, after sunlight specifies the sun light, the size multiplier of the sun light is the parameter of the sun size in the picture rendering.
But in vantage. If the sun light of Vray sky in 3dsmax is bound to the node, vraysun's size multiplier cannot link the size of the sun in vantage. I wonder if you can reproduce this problem. If not. I can send a test scenario
thank you

Vantage has an invalid state for one of these situations
Vray correctly handles the influence of size multiplier parameter in two cases

Hi q976431,

Thank you for the report and video. I will log it and we will investigate it further.

Currently, more than 1 vraydome is not supported?
I tried to use another new vraydome as auxiliary lighting, and found that it always seemed to be blocked by the first vraydome loaded with HDR map

[Alexander.Atanasov]

Yes, currently only 1 dome light is supported. Can you please share what is your case that you need 2 dome lights?

When I use an HDR + vraydome, there may be some gaps where it is too dark. Not much light. Under Vray. I will add a vraydome with ambient color, which will quickly solve the lack of light in the dark.
Maybe you can give me a better way to deal with it?

At the same time, I would like to ask when the functions like vfb2 curve can be introduced? If the UI production is inconvenient, in fact, I think we can directly read the vfb2 interface, so that we can directly use the VFB color matching command, and then transfer it to the vantage screen through real-time linkage.

I understand. You could try to increase the Ambient light option in the Advanced category in the Lights tab to brighten those dark areas just a bit: https://docs.chaos.com/download/atta..._LightsTab.PNG Please note that this just brightens the render and will not cast shadows. If used in large values will make the image look dull and flat.

We have that in the TO DO list but as a workaround for the moment you could make your post settings in the VFB and export them as a LUT(https://drive.google.com/uc?id=13uk5...epAN2j93OvSqTg) file which you then load in Vantage(Please note to chose the appropriate color space for the LUT file:https://forums.chaos.com/filedata/fe...7&d=1629929769). This should work while in live link.

I tried ambient light, but its intensity is limited and can't control the color? Maybe it should support color and intensity, allowing more than 1?

[q976431]

Yes, currently only 1 dome light is supported. Can you please share what is your case that you need 2 dome lights?

I made an animated object and turned it into a Vray agent. I'm sure I used the exported animation.
Its preview is normal and dynamic in 3dsmax. But it cannot be linked to vantage in real time.
Does it not support the real-time linkage of animated objects under Vray agent

[Alexander.Atanasov]

Updating of Animated V-Ray Proxies is not supported in Live link nor in animated vrscene. We will add support for that in the future.
