Sun Preset Settings Option.

Hello, With the introduction of the Night Sky feature in the VRay Sun, and with the Cloud system that is already available, along side all the other settings, I believe it would be ideal to add a 'Preset' feature that allows saving custom presets ...

Cross-compatibility of V-Ray proxies between 3ds Max and SketchUp

It would be extremely useful if V-Ray proxies could be shared directly between 3ds Max and SketchUp, carrying not only the mesh but also their V-Ray materials. Right now, proxies are limited to geometry only, which means if we want to move assets ...

Render checkpoints

I believe RenderMan and 1 or 2 other render engines support checkpointing, where there render will periodically save its render progress so if the frame is interupted or stopped, that another render node may be able ton continue where the frame la...

Vray-Scene Manager

Maybe make Vray-Scene manager, similar to asseble huge scenes with xRefs in 3ds max, but much smarter and faster, maybe like assembling vray scenes in one max file. Or even better example is USD workflow, that looks very cool for big scenes and th...

Water Surface

Could we get the water surface tool that's in Vantage in VR4SU? It's useful for create quick water and I would love to be able to send a water surface over from my SketchUp models to Vantage.

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

add cryptoDeep support

DreamWorks recently unveiled what they call cryptoDeep - cryptomatte support for Deep EXR that supports transparency. This would be incredibly useful for situations with cards with opacity mattes. I believe they said the source code is in the late...

Evironment override map

Currently if we need to put a background map into the render we need to use 3ds Max Environment and Effects, I think this is a little confusing, could we have a dedicated slot into the Environment tab in V-Ray Tab? similar to Corona Scene environm...

Focus override for VRayCamera

A one click solution to override the camera focus would be extremely helpful, something similar to Corona. One click to override, and a selection box to select the focus object. Animating the focus pull is a must, and using helpers/dummies for tha...
