RAYTRACE PROPERTICES - doesnt work on GPU mode since last update.

[david_cediel]

Since the last update, the ability to hide a material from the render using the Ray Trace Properties module was limited to CPU mode. This is a really bad idea, since I was able to hide some materials from the camera when GPU rendering was done. For instance, with the Cosmos 3D models, I was able to use some parts of them by activating this feature. Please bring it back or show how to achieve the same as before but with the GPU, since CPU works well but the rendering times are not optimal for my work. Please see the attached screenshot to understand what I mean.

Hello david_cediel,

(VRW-4305) Disabling Raytrace Properties does not work in V-Ray GPU issue is yet to be fixed and was not a part of the latest 6.20.03 update. We will post here on forum once there is a change.

thank, please vray you sould fix first main issues insted of adding other feature. maybe as an idea you sould have a stable version an a beta version, where you let us chosse what to take, becuase my work depends on think that work well for years. no for innovation that can result in further problems.

I am very, very disappointed. On January 25th I posted the problem and tried again and again to remind you that this feature is very important and if a small bug fix could finally come out. And now almost 3 months later - no bug fix.

When features that have existed for a long time are broken, I expect a quick reaction, because the users have been integrating them into all kinds of projects for a long time. VfR is a tool for professional users and they also need professional support.

natalia.gruzdova Please forgive my harsh words, but to be ignored for weeks and then the small problem is still not solved .... . What is going on? When will the problem be solved?

That's exactly how I see it. It's interesting that, as a user for almost 20 years, I see it the same way as a brand new user. I think there should be standards, such as old features being repaired immediately. New features are less important than that nothing is destroyed. I have been waiting for months for this basic feature to be fixed. Will it take another few months? I'm afraid so.

Hello,

I would like to let you know that the Raytrace Properties attribute issues with the V-Ray GPU engine are resolved and the fix will be included in the next hotfix, which is coming soon.

Kind regards,
