Go anywhere your imagination takes you.
Create faster and render better than ever before. Populate your scenes with millions of 3D objects to create natural-looking landscapes and realistic environments quickly and easily. Generate detailed surfaces using repeating geometric patterns at no extra memory cost. Create beautiful custom skies with procedural clouds, collaborate in the Cloud, and much more.
Build worlds
Create anything imaginable with new tools, allowing you to quickly and easily build worlds - without limits.
Chaos Scatter
Populate your scenes with millions of objects in just a few clicks. Our new scatter tool allows you to quickly and easily create forests, fields, crowds, and more, without using lots of memory. Download free 3D models and scatter presets from Chaos Cosmos to get started.

V-Ray Enmesh
Tile 3D geometry patterns across objects to create complex surfaces with lots of detail for stunning close-up shots. Enmesh is ideal for creating intricate panels, fences, fabrics, and so much more, and it uses much less memory than displacement or copying by hand.
See V-Ray Enmesh
V-Ray Decal with Displacement
You can now use V-Ray Decal to add displacement to any surface for even more realistic cracked walls, rocks, embossed lettering, and more.
See V-Ray Decal
V-Ray Proxy Object Hierarchy
Easily turn an individual object’s visibility or material override on or off with the new V-Ray Proxy hierarchical view. Set custom order by name, and streamline your geometry exchange and custom library workflows.
See VRayProxy
Collaborate as you create
Fast-forward your project’s reviews and approvals.
Chaos Cloud Collaboration
Get rapid, consolidated feedback on your work’s progress. Upload your renders to Chaos Cloud Collaboration right from V-Ray’s Frame Buffer, and share your work with clients, team members, and other stakeholders for easy review, markup, and comments at any time.
Streamline your workflow
Get the job done faster and save time to be creative.
Procedural clouds
Craft just the right cloudy sky for your environment in just a few clicks with V-Ray Sun and Sky’s new procedural clouds system. Easily simulate a variety of cloud types and weather conditions, from partly cloudy to overcast. Render realistic stills, or dynamic timelapses.
See VRaySun
Finite dome light mode
Elevate your HDRI environment renders with the new, more flexible ground projection capabilities of the V-Ray Dome Light. Set the scale of a dome light, and have full control over blend settings with the new finite mode.

Faster UI draw times
Get a smoother experience when working with shading networks. V-Ray’s materials and textures interface now comes with much faster load times.
Light Mix light selection
Easily access scene lights with the option to select them directly from the Light Mix interface.
See VRayLightMix
Texture batch load
Add variety to your scene even faster than before and create shader variations in no time with the new texture batch load option inside VRayMultiSubTex.
See VRayMultiSubTex
Shading - powered up
Speed up shading and create even more physically accurate materials.
Enhanced V-Ray Material energy preservation
Render metals and rough reflective surfaces even more accurately using the new energy compensation method.
Thin Film layer
Easily create iridescent materials such as soap bubbles, oil spills, and more with the new Thin Film option available in the V-Ray Material.
V-Ray Material Faster SSS
Render translucent materials even faster with a brand-new V-Ray Material subsurface scattering mode. Plus, low-poly translucent objects render more smoothly.
