V-Ray V-Ray for 3ds Max General

Hi.

Does VRay take advantage of the bitmap proxies in Max 9???
I have scene that use very high res materials and in some case
it crash cause to much memory used by those bitmaps. So ticking
the Bitmap Proxies checkbox, use a 1/2 resolution and also use the proxies
to render is a HUGE feature in some case, so does VRay’s able to take advantage of it?

Regards.

yea, it works fine for local renders. i’ve had some crashing when trying to send to backburner if i forget to turn them off :wink: but i’m only looking so far at 2 scenes attempting it.
