Learn all about what’s new.
Refine your designs. Work smarter.
V-Ray 6, update 1 is powered up to enable users to add even more realism to their designs, fine-tune their renders and collaborate better than ever. Designers and artists can enjoy an even better compatibility between V-Ray and Enscape, an improved V-Ray Decal for adding stickers and labels to even the most challenging surfaces, enhanced materials, new animations.
And much more.
Take your Enscape designs to the next level of photorealism.
Even better collaboration between designers and artists on the same project.
Better compatibility with Enscape
With the latest update, you can take your Enscape clouds to V-Ray and they will look exactly the same.
In addition, it’s easy to transfer Enscape's configurable assets, exposure and environment settings to V-Ray, ensuring you can continue building on your design and take it to the highest possible level of photorealism.
Level up your designs.
Add a new level of realism to your designs.
Decal cylindrical projection
Easily add stickers, labels, and more to the surface curvature of bottles, jars, cups, cans, or any other cylindrical object. Match the Decal’s projection to the curve of the object’s surface in just a few clicks. You can also automatically size the decal based on a texture from various sources.
Decal displacement
Use V-Ray Decal to add displacement to any surface for even more effects such as realistic cracked walls, rocks, corroded metal, embossed lettering, and more.
Improved procedural clouds
With the introduction of the V-Ray Sky contrails layer, you now have the ability to simulate airplane contrails in your design, broadening the scope for realism and artistic expression.
