Simplex noise distortion?

[ryancau]

Hello,

Referencing this post from Jan 2016, the simplex noise node in Maya should be supported by V-ray:

But I've had no luck getting V-ray to respect the distortion U/V attribute.

You can see I have 2 noise nodes plugged into the distortion slots on the simplex (I have tried both outAlpha and outColorR). The result is as expected in the viewport (left), but in the V-ray render the simplex noise is not distorted. Maya software and hardware render matches with the viewport.

I am using V-ray 3.4.04 in Maya 2017 sp3.

Is there something I am missing? Will switching to 3.5 fix this issue? Thanks

It is not supported in 3.52, so switching to this version won't fix it.
I've logged it in our ToDo and when it is implemented we'll notify you in this topic.

Thanks for reporting and sorry for the inconvenience.
