Known issues

  • The --list-devices command-line option in vray-gpu-cuda mode doesn't list CPUs in hybrid configurations. The CPUs can still be selected by their default index 0.
  • Selecting a single GPU from a Multi-GPU graphics card might cause unexpected behaviour.
  • Running a second V-Ray Benchmark instance closes the previous one.
