  • Vray NEXT is not very NEXT

    Here's a quick video I made with my first impressions trying to use vray Next's "new" Asset Editor.

    A​​​​​​s you can see the when I attempt to create a reusable vrscene asset (that has no preview in the editor?), it works a single time before I begin making gumball duplicates which essentially break V-Ray. What is the point for an asset library if you can't work with multiple instances of an object?

    The infinite plane also continues to show even though i've deleted it, throughout the video i pressed stop and re-render on the so called interactive renderer about 20 times to attempt to update it semi-successfully.

    These seem like some pretty fundamental flaws that would be considered pre-alpha bugs in most programs, Blender and Rhino's own Cycles have been doing interactive rendering seamlessly for years now.

    sorry to take the angry entitled user stance but when your expecting already paying customers to fork out another $400 for essentially a slight re-jig of the asset editor with no true changes under the hood its crazy.

      Hello,

      Proxy Scenes do not respond to changes during Interactive rendering. Proxy Meshes (.vrmat/.abc files) do not share this limitation.
      When exporting a .vrscene file it gathers all available scene data - geometry, materials, lights. In your case, each Proxy Scene that was exported contained not just the cube but also the spot light and infinite plane. After deleting the original Infinite plane object, the ones that remained were all part of your proxy instances.

      I am sorry you feel this way about the content in our latest release. I can assure you the redesigned UI only scratches the surface of all that has been improved.
      A list of all changes can be found at https://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/VNFR/V-Ray+Next
      Furthermore, there is a V-Ray Next for Rhino Webinar scheduled for the 9th of April that will showcase most of its new capabilities. I encourage you to check it out and hope it may improve your opinion.
      Registration is available at https://www.chaosgroup.com/vray/rhin...nar-april-2019

      Kind regards,
