cryptomatte mask to render element

[roysgi]

Hi . after updating vray from 5.1 to 5.14 i can not add the cryptomatte mask to any render element (in VFB) is this option gone?

Hello,

I'm a bit uncertain about the versions you are mentioning - there's no version 5.14 of V-Ray for 3ds Max ? Also - it was never possible to add masks to render element layers. Seems like a popular request so we've added it to the internal builds and it should get in the official builds at some point.

Best regards,
Yavor

Hi.
I may be wrong about version 5.1 but I'm sure I made a mask for the render element with some version 5. The only solution right now is to put the render element in a folder and make it a cryptomatte mask, am I right?

Yep, currently that is a solution.
