Current V-Ray for Rhinoceros 4 users can now update their version of V-Ray free of charge and Render in DesignTime™.

This service release offers several additional features, including the much anticipated V-Ray Toon material, expanded render channels and extra light options. In addition, this service release also addresses several bug fixes.

"We are very excited to bring this Service Release to our customers", said Damien Alomar, Product Manager for ASGvis, the makers of
V-Ray for Rhino."This release continues to add features and clear up issues that will offer a marked improvement in render quality and workflow for V-Ray"

Area shadows (soft shadows). Includes box and sphere emitters.

Indirect Illumination (global illumination, global lighting). Different approaches include direct computation (brute force), and irradiance maps.

Depth-Of-Field camera effect.

Antialiasing. Includes fixed, simple 2-level and adaptive approaches.

Caustics.

Optimized materials for faster rendering.

Fully multithreaded raytracing engine

Reusable irradiance maps (save and load support). Incremental sampling for fly-through animations.

Photon mapping

Reusable caustic and global photon maps (save and load support).
True HDRI support. Includes support for *.hdr image loading with proper texture coordinates handling for both cubic and angular maps. Map your images directly without distortions or cropping.

Native area lights for physically correct illumination.

Different camera types: fish-eye, spherical, cylindrical and cubic cameras.
