Release Notes: V-Ray 5, Beta






REDESIGNED V-RAY FRAME BUFFER

We’ve expanded the capabilities of the VFB. With the VFB’s new Layer Compositor you can fine-tune your images — and go beyond rendering. See the V-Ray Frame Buffer page.


STREAMLINED UI

The latest updates to V-Ray 5’s UI significantly improve your rendering workflow. Focus on your designs and achieve faster results with fewer tweaks and less clicks using V-Ray’s automatic settings.


V-RAY MATERIAL LIBRARY

Efficiently browse from a library of over 500 render-ready materials including metals, glass, wood and more. See the V-Ray 5 Material Library page.


LIGHT PATH EXPRESSIONS

For better control in compositing, construct your own render passes with Light Path Expressions. Output specific light contributions with timesaving presets or by writing custom expressions.

Note that LPE is enabled by setting VFH_LPE_ENABLE variable to 1.


SIMPLIFIED ACESCG WORKFLOW

Enable ACEScg so V-Ray 5 can automatically convert the colors of textures, light temperatures, etc. to the correct color space, without the need of additional nodes.
