Hi,

We uploaded a new build on the website; you can get it at
http://www.chaosgroup.com/en/2/downl...l?s=v-ray-modo

Here is the change log from the build :

Build 3.00.04 (06.01.2015)
=================================================

New features:
===========
(*) Support for Mac OS X Mavericks(10.9) and Mac OS X Yosemite(10.10);

Modified features:
===========
(*) Lights: The "Radiance" and "Dissolve" parameters of the "Photometric Light" are no longer ignored;
(*) Lights: The "V-Ray Light" tab for the Cylinder and Dome light now has "Invisible" and "Affect reflections" options;
(*) Lights: The "Ambient Intensity" and "Ambient Color" channels in the "Global Illumination" tab of the Render item are no longer ignored;

Do you have the older builds listed - 30001, 30002, 30003 ?

I do not.. and can not see anything on the website to get them. I have a dongle and login, but can not see them..

In that case I suppose you have access to the nightly builds ?
The Mac OS X build with the dongle license is under "V-Ray 3.0 for Modo nightly\mac_build" on the nightly builds site.

Or you can register for the Open Beta here : http://www.v-ray.com/modo/
It will take more time, as you will also need to request a software license once you install V-Ray for MODO.

Hi I have tried to go through the re register but I get a "you are already registered"... I guess I am just missing something and will have to go back and look at the login info I had when filling out the NDA...

I can not remember if I have access to the mighty builds, to be honest, I do not know... it has been a while from the first alpha version.....

But it has been a while....And I am itching to see it run in Modo on mac....

Cheers

Are you sure you are looking at the correct folder. There is a "V-Ray 3.0 for Modo nightly" folder, with two sub-folders : "nightlies" and "mac_build".

Hi Vladimir,

I wonder what will happen after the January 15th ? Will the open beta be closed ? Or can we expect a new period of test ?

I don't think it will be closed. But you will have to renew your license unfortunately.

under the link I get only the Windows version, but also an 'access expired' warning in red.
under nightly builds I can also find just windows and blender builds.

Sorry, I didn't know the nightly builds access had expiration dates. In that case write to
support [at] chaosgroup [dot] com asking them to extend your nightly build access to the V-Ray for MODO Beta.

After registering to the public beta I can see the folders under nightly builds, before I could only see the latest builds, just windows. So downloaded 30004, it says that it uses software license. Ok, I'm new to that.
So to everyone who is new. Under applications/chaosgroup/vray/Modo_x64/
launch Register V-Ray license for this machine.command
It comes up with the license request code.
I send it to the given email address.. now see when I get it

What I found interesting is, that you can also set the license to remote.. I would like read an description how to do that, as I normally install all my license on my server.

The "Launch V-Ray License Server.command" will start a software license server for V-Ray for MODO.
It is a separate server from the one that works with dongles.
