V-Ray 2.0 for 3ds Max
V-Ray 2.0 for 3ds Max has revolutionised the way artists render, offering a choice of CPU and GPU rendering within the one package. The new version is set to become a complete rendering solution for the needs of every production pipeline.
Following a complete revamp, V-Ray 2.0 now includes V-Ray for 3ds Max production renderer, V-Ray RT on CPU and V-Ray RT on GPU. Artists can now render on their GPU to get significantly higher rendering performance for faster workflows. Also included is V-Ray’s advanced raytracing technology, previously only available in the stand-alone V-Ray RT.
The new version builds on V-Ray’s solid credentials that have made this a favourite renderer within the CG industry. With out-of-the-box productivity, V-Ray 2.0 offers fully-integrated, high-performance toolsets for Autodesk® 3ds Max® 2011. It helps artists and designers achieve higher-quality results more easily and in less time.
