  • [Optional] Start an IPR to see scene updates in real time.
  • Create a VRaySphereFade node from the V-Ray menu > V-Ray Sphere Fade, or from the V-Ray Shelf. This automatically adds a VRaySphereFadeVolume as an environment volume override.
  • Adjust the Sphere Fade locator in the scene. Everything within the locator will be rendered.

When creating a VRaySphereFade node, if nothing is connected to the environment volume override, a VRaySphereFadeVolume will be automatically added there, as it is required for the setup to work. If there already was another volume shader connected, you will need to manually create a VRaySphereFadeVolume and connect it to the environment volume override.

Example: Relative Falloff
 
This example uses a VRaySphereFade locator with the Shape set to Sphere aligned with the the Viper fighter. We've set the radius to 390 so the locator is large enough to cover our object. This will provide the active area used by VRaySphereFade and has been added as an active object in the VRaySphereFade parameters list. By changing the value of the Falloff the amount of fade can be adjusted. The fade effect takes place from the locator itself inwards, so it must contain what you want to see in your render.

Example: Empty Color
 
Like the previous examples on this page, this one uses a VRaySphereFade with the Shape set to Sphere and the radius of 390 aligned to the Viper fighter. This will provide the active area used by VRaySphereFade and has been added as an active object in the VRaySphereFade parameters list. The Empty Color (the area outside of that affected by the VRaySphereFade locator and its falloff) can be changed from a default of mid-gray to any color required.

Example: Invert
 
The Invert option can be used to render everything visible in the scene outside of the VRaySphereFade locator. In the examples shown below a Falloff value of 0.1 has been used.
