V-Ray 2.20.01 available for download

[vlado]

and @ vlado - think about the manual - i`d pay money for this.........

It would help to describe what you expect from a manual. The V-Ray help index lists all parameters of all plugins with an explanation for each of them, which is precisely what you said you need.

Yes, you describe the settings - but not how to use them - example the Lens_Effects in 2.0. I was very happy when i saw the lens effect (because i`m not a friend of post processing) but it is to sensible to use- more examples would help a lot.
In the new 2.2 help index - the describtion of the VrayHairMtl is very good - a lot of examples and tests - but not how to use with Hair & Fur (I think most of us work with hair and fur or vrayfur).
But - don`t care - I´m very happy with vray and its support (you won`t get any reply from anyone at saturday evening )
Have a nice weekend.

Well, that was probably a mistake on my part because I thought this would be obivous. I added a note at the end of the Hair&Fur page here: http://www.spot3d.com/vray/help/200R...htm#custom_mtl

For some reason SolidRocks doesn't work with this release. I know that's probably not your problem, but I figured I should mention it here, since Jerome hasn't responded to the cries for help on his forum.

[vlado]

Is there a particular error message?

The interface comes up, but the initialization window doesn't go away, and it doesn't change the render settings.

Great update. What exactly does the "VFB: added ICC color correction to the V-Ray VFB" option do though? Loading different ICC profiles doesn't seem to do anything - I've tried checking all of the "Use..." options in the vfb as well. Tried rerendering too after setting the profile.

I have prepared a mini tutorial for Vray Lens Effects last month. You can check it on my web site www.pixela-3d.com if you are still interested.

Jerome is on it and we will have solidrocks working in a few days...
