Hey all

I know this has been mentioned in other threads, but just to put in one post:
GPU features required for Automotive rendering:

VRScans
Wrapper GI etc. support
Environment Overrides - Secondary Matte texture etc.

Cheers

Thanks for the feedback! Really helps to know what people need more.

We have VRScans working in the internal builds, so this is pretty much checked (some folks beta tested them already https://www.behance.net/gallery/5666…rsche-IAA-2017, https://www.behance.net/gallery/53654245/911-GT2-on-VRScans).
Better wrapper and environment overrides are in the todo, but I can’t give ETA for those atm.

Best,
Blago.

Hey Blago

Excellent. Looks great.

Is it possible to get on the beta for VRScans?

Cheers

Hopefully in a couple of weeks.

Ooh, I’d like to add dispersion to the GPU feature list, if poss.

Cheers.

Hi Vlado

Cheers

Hi Blago

Just checking in on the list?
Particularly the Overrides, as we can’t use the GPU’s for final renders, without :slight_smile:

Cheers

Not sure what about LightMtl was not working, but it is supported for quite a while now.
In the nightlies we have added support for dispersion, so this is coming too. We still haven’t looked into the overrides.

Best,
Blago.

Cool, cheers for the update.

That’s great.

11

I think it was the transparency part of the LightMtl, which, just checking, is not supported.

12

Ah, right. This is also fixed for the next update and is already fixed in our internal nightlies.

Best,
Blago.

13

Could we get support for the Maya image plane on the GPU please?

14

That’s been requested before and is on the to-do list. I’ll add your vote for it.

15

Thanks. Now that we have V-Ray next in Maya will I need to register to be on the nightlies again?

I already have access to V-Ray 3 nightlies.

16

Drop a line to the support guys and they’ll be able to sort things out.

Thanks, I can use the VFB background image in most situations. But sometimes when you have a camera that has offsets on the film back then those need to be linked to the image plane which is not possible using the VFB.
