Render time (min)

V-Ray for 3ds Max V-Ray for 3ds Max :: General

Shouldn’t that default be something other than 1? it has bitten me several times. I’ll hit render, walk away just to come back to 1 minute worth of progressive render. Also, I noticed that the ‘ShadeContext in camera space’ is still checked by default, which gives the error in the V-Ray Frame Buffer.

We could set it to 0, I guess?

That’s what I would think, but that is just my opinion.

yeh if the goal is to do as little effort to show the best image, i think 0 would be best

Ok, will look into it. Btw it is possible to save your own default values for the renderer settings if you save a V-Ray preset with the name “default” - it will be loaded any time the V-Ray renderer is created/reset. You can only select some of the parameters to be saved into the preset (f.e. only the progressive sampler parameters).

Here is a short guide how to set the default to 0.0.

Same! I’m pretty excited about it. Already made a few tweaks to the system menu.
