V-Ray 1.50 Service Pack 4a for 3ds Max Now
Available
The upgrade is free of charge for all current V-Ray for 3ds Max customers.
V-Ray 1.50 Service Pack 4a is compatible with the following:
- Autodesk 3ds Max 8
- Autodesk 3ds Max 9
- Autodesk 3ds Max 2008
- Autodesk 3ds Max 2009
- Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2009
- Autodesk 3ds Max 2010
- Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2010
The new V-Ray build supports both 32-bit and 64-bit OS.
It includes the following modified features:
- Added support for projection mapping when doing texture baking;
- Added new option to link the V-Ray VFB to PDPlayer;
And several bug fixes:
- Turning off "Affect specular" for a dome light made it invisible to
reflections as well;
- Fixed a crash when importing a particular .vrmesh file;
- Fixed crash with VRayFastSSS2 material with VRayDirt map and a standard
light with VRayShadowMap;
- The "prepass samples" option in the motion blur rollout did not work;
- Fixed stuck buckets with VRayEnvironmentFog and mesh gizmos;
- Fixed issues with VRayEnvironmentFog and mesh gizmos with modifiers;
- User could not remove gizmos/lights from VRayEnvironmentFog;
- ParticleFlow instancing did not render all mapping channels of original
mesh;
- Fixed crash with VFB region render when region is outside of image;
- Turned off by default the option to save the DR servers to the scene
(caused slowdown on scene save if servers are offline);
- Fixed some licensing issues.
Note, if you have downloaded V-Ray SP4 for 3ds
Max, it is strongly recommended to upgrade to V-Ray SP4a for 3ds Max because of
the licensing issues.
V-Ray has become the top choice for fast and accurate photo-realistic rendering. Offering state-of-the-art rendering technology, V-Ray has single handedly transformed the CG industry.
