New SSS (Wax) and Volumetric (Water) mode are great

[javierrentas]

Hi Kotse,
The new SSS and Volumetric mode is super cool, but can we refine the UI to work like 3ds Max? I found the current UI super confusing and we do not have documentation about it either.

Hi

Well... jajajajaja Is not ready for vray for rhyno, i use vray for sketchup and we are waiting too for these new materials, is only available for maya and 3d max, thats why You didnt find any kind of information about the new sss materials, your are going to wait a Lot more, right now update 2 is coming for 3d max, so is in developing and probably for sketchup too
Cheers!!!

That render was in V-Ray for Rhino. The mode is already there,

[luisgamino2]

Well thats amazing, we don't have this option in vray for sketchup yet, and we are in the same update that rhyno vray 5 update 1.5

[javierrentas]

Seem that it is half implemented in V-Ray for Rhino, because the UI is not correct, according to the UI in 3ds Max.
However, you could create some very cool materials and they are pretty fast to render

[luisgamino2]

I think probably was half implemented as You said, i'm installing the latest uddate 1.5, i hope we got half implemented as vray for rhyno too

Hi guys,

javierrentas, thanks for the feedback, I've forwarded this to the dev team. If you do have any improvement suggestions, do let us know as well.

we don't have this option in vray for sketchup yet, and we are in the same update that rhyno vray 5 update 1.5

luisgamino2, this is available in both V-Ray 5 for Rhino and SketchUp (create a Material > Refraction settings > Switch to Advanced Settings > enable Fog Scattering. Both the new SSS and Volumetric Fog scattering modes are present).

Our docs page should be soon updated with description and examples, we will let you know when this happens.

Other than that, do share if you find anything missing and have additional feedback on the matter - we'll be happy to hear it.

Hi,

To add an update - you will see a fully-functional yet simplified set of options within the next release updates. Stay tuned - you'll be notified.

Hi guys,

The new Translucency modes are now available in Update 2 for both Rhino and SketchUp.
The old modes are considered legacy and are hidden.
We were actually waiting for GPU support for the new modes before we include them in an update.

Note that there seems to be an interactive rendering issue which requires you to restart the interactive process after the Translucency mode is changed.
This is something we'll address soon.

Regards,
Konstantin
