Just having some fun with the latest sevice pack and RT/GPU. The below shot shows the Vray Car Paint material on the Z. The noise on the ground was a pre-made bitmap, but I was able to modify it greatly with Color Correct to get the reflection and glossiness maps I was looking for. Messing with Mix …

Very nice :slight_smile: Use the CUDA engine though, it’s much faster… Best regards, Vlado

Im wondering if the blend material is properly working now…?

[image] When using DR, how do you free up your main workstation to continue modeling etc.? Im wondering if the blend material is properly working now…? It works as expected from my tests; both on the CPU and the GPU (if you don’t use the “Additive” mode at any rate). Best regards, Vlado

I made some tests of OpenGL and CUDA in VRay 2.30 and speed was absolutelly the same. So there is CUDA speed perfoarmance in 2.40?

[image] On another topic I made some tests of OpenGL and CUDA in VRay 2.30 and speed was absolutelly the same. This was the case for V-Ray 2.30, but it’s not the case for V-Ray 2.40. Our GPU code is now way more complex than before and the latest nVidia OpenCL driver needs about 80 GB of RAM (…

so.. openCL eh? crippled on AMD and now crippled on Nvidia too. lookin hot.

Looks like the light plane bugs are gone in GPU!..Still no Vray 2 sided materials or fastSSS2 shaders.

2-sided materials should work fine, Eric…check it out… -Alan [2SMtest.jpg]

2.40.01 Fun!
