Vray 2.20 and particles instancing

V-Ray for Maya V-Ray for Maya :: General

Hi,
just got latest version 2.20 and I see that particle instancing still is not implemented in VrayRt (maybe I am wrong) . Any plans of making this feature available soon, it would have saved TONS of time for a projects that we just finished, I though it was meant to be in this latest release.
Thanks a lot,
Alex.

The particle Instancer is supported and should work fine (and it has been working for quite a while now). If you have a scene where it doesn’t, can you post it here or send it to me at vlado@chaosgroup.com

Best regards,
Vlado

Thanks a lot,
Alex.

It is indeed not working in the RT engine (I was thinking about the production renderer originally). We are looking into it.

Is this still for the RT engine? If yes, then we got the instancer working in V-Ray RT, we just need to test it more carefully.
