VRay Toon with *.ai export

[Mirko]

Hello,

I wish to have an option to export vector lines from VRay Toon renderings as *.ai files.
FinalToon does support that feature. But I'd prefere a vray integrated solution.

It is a bit complicated as VRayToon does not trace lines as such, but "feels" around a shading point for differences in geometry/normals etc (which is why VRayToon can work with displacement, reflections, motion blur, dof etc). I think some vector programs allow you to re-trace a raster image, but I haven't done this myself.

Best regards,
Vlado

I see. Thanks for that explanation Vlado!

I'd settle for a render element which allows me to not render it in the main image, but use it in post

This can be done probably... I have to check.

Add another for that request, i'd use it a lot more.

+3 !
This would be so handy to me for this current project i'm on....
