Hi…Been out of this scene for awhile. I was wondering if any new news has come up on the new High end poly count situation?
                 I have gotten no new updates or info sent to me for quite some time.I know of V-ray’s problem with XP and high poly counts.But last I heard there was a new thing coming out that would enable almost endless poly counts.
                 Anything anyone can elaborate on this would be greatly appreaciated,thanks. :smile:

This will be in 1.1 when it is done.

Yes when it’s done.Should I hold my breath for another year? :stuck_out_tongue:
                 Is there at least a “New” ballpark estimate of when this will be?The past estimated arrival dates of this product have come and gone many times over. :roll:
                 It is vital for my project,I need higher poly freedom at all costs.It’s just been near a year now that I have waited for this elusive product.It sure would be great to at least get some kind of estimate on it’s arrival.Be it today or next year,at least some confirmation. :?

Thanks. :!:

You could try, but I suspect you’ll run into problems after a minute or so… :wink:

Seriously though, as far as I know you won’t have to wait much longer.

Three minutes is my best… :wink:

Not much longer,music to my ears,I sure hope so,it would be a true Godsend.Thanks for the tip. :smile:

C’mon guys!

What about a more definite answer from somebody?

It’s so frustrating knowing what Vray is capable of but not being able to use it all the time!

Someone must know…

1 week? 2 weeks? a month? 6?

Please…

When its done. :wink:

As a long time Vray user, I just would like to note that the current version of Vray is WELL beyond what was promissed a long time ago. There are still a few missing items, but generally speaking, if you would consider a traditional software company, what people seem to expect out of 1.1, would be what a normal software company would give in version 5 or 6… take photoshop for example, and see what has really changed from version 5.5 to 8.

Fair enough & I do think that Vray is a great product, just not viable for me until the poly issue is sorted out.

I do think in general software developers should keep the new features to themselves though. At least until a point when they can give a semi-definite release date for said features.

I was a Photoshop 2.5 user when Adobe announced the next version (3.0) would have layers. This was a feature we needed desperately at the time and Adobe were kind enough to let us have a Beta version.

Any chance of a Beta now? :wink: [/b]
