Distributed Render - spawner machines info tab

Have an additional tab with info for the DR machines. Being able to see which ones are rendering, those who are pending/being added for render and those who for some reason cannot connect and the potential reason why. Today all of this is in the l...

Resolution-dependent displacement subdivision

I usually render at 5K for production, but sometimes I need higher resolutions (e.g. 10K for a denoiser workflow). The problem is that with 3D displacement set to view dependent, the look of the displacement changes at higher resolutions. In some ...

Tapering of internal lines in VRayToon

Hi, it would be nice to have some options for control of internal line width on VRayToon beyond the mapped width. For example, being able to have a line thin at each end, so it's more like a brush stroke. Thanks

Adding render nodes mid-render

In V-Ray Distributed Rendering,I think we should have the ability to add and remove servers while the render is going on.Sometimes I want to use my main workstation for other stuff, but when I am AFK/Sleeping, I want to use my workstation to join ...

Add "Fit resolution to VFB" button to VFB toolbar

The title is self-explanatory. I use it frequently in my workflow, and it would save a lot of clicks (open Render Settings > scroll down to "Fit resolution to VFB" > close Render Settings). Thank you

Load in cryptomatte alpha to act as render region matte

It would be great if you could load in a black and white map jpeg sequence (or an PNG with unpremult alpha) to act as a custom render region. So if you need to re-render just one element in your shot you can isolate it and do it quickly. Thanks

Lights statistic to V-Ray Profiler

add a lights statistic feature to the V-Ray Profiler. It would be very helpful to analyze how much each light contributes to render times. This would make debugging very complex scenes much easier.

Lens simulator

Hi everyone. We made this idea to collect more opinions on a topic that is discussed right now in the forum. We would like to know whether you would use a simulation representing a specific lens. If yes, what kind of lenses would you like to have?...

OCIO config based noise threshold calculation

I've requested this years ago but I was told that this is nonsene. So, now that I have used it in Karma for a while (and yes, it works) I propose (again) to have noise variance be determined by the output ocio transform. This saves rendertimes in ...
