VRaySun

  • Improve the viewport locator for the V-Ray Sun to display the sun vector

V-Ray GPU

  • Autovoxelize dynamic geometry in V-Ray GPU

V-Ray GPU, VRayTextures, Displacement and Subdivision

  • Implement auto bump mapping for smoothed and displaced meshes

VRayProxy

  • Shader set generation option in proxy export

VRayVolumeGrid

Bug Fixes

V-Ray

  • Object leftovers between frames in animation
  • V-Ray clipper doesn't work for more than 1 frame in animation in mesh mode
  • Diffuse artifacts with anisotropic reflections and sheen or diffuse roughness
  • Reflections computed in fully diffuse VRayMtl materials
  • Issues with Anti-aliasing when using VRayCryptomatte mask on objects with multiple materials
  • Missing values in exported vrscenes
  • Imported Sphere and Rectangle Lights have wrong intensity
  • Cosmos browser asks for cookies on each process restart
  • Scanned material should be able to work with relative paths
  • Change the step size for the "Multiplier" and "Burn Value" in Color Mapping
  • Cinema 4D crashes in Interactive Rendering with Subdivision and Fur
  • Crash when V-Ray Fur is a hierarchy added to object
  • Darker Buckets appear on M1 Mac Machines with Adaptive lights
  • Crash when adding modifiers to geometry with Fur in Interactive
  • Identical meshes with different polygon selection names export the same geometry
  • Changing the V-Ray physical camera focus distance from the Cinema 4D focus picker doesn't work
  • Material link parameters can't be cleared in interactive rendering
  • Implicit focus distance may result in inverted camera render

V-Ray, Render Elements

  • Add input options for Material Select RE

V-Ray GPU

  • V-Ray Sun disk is not rendered with V-Ray GPU
  • Instanced textured V-Ray lights don't share loaded textures
  • Clipped light geometry when 'Clip lights geometry' option is disabled and non-light geometry is in front of lights
  • Wrong fog color alpha results when refraction set to affect all channels
  • The alpha of a transparent VRayMaterial is not working correctly
  • Some threads never finish with "Low GPU thread priority" set to 1
  • Wrong V-Ray Clipper material on clipped V-Ray Light objects when set to Use object material
