Icon text – Enables or disables the display of the VRayPlane text in the viewport.

This plugin has a single parameter which allows the user to enable and disable the display of the VRayPlane in the view port.

Icon size – Specifies the size of the viewport gizmo in world units. This allows the gizmo to be static, regardless of its distance from the camera, or to be removed altogether.

Real-world map size – Enables VRayPlane mapping in actual scale, i.e. it matches the behavior of 3ds Max Real-World Map Size option. This is useful when importing Chaos Cosmos materials which use an actual scale. When disabled, VRayPlane has a fixed mapping in world space.

  • The position of the plane depends on its transformation in the 3ds Max scene.
  • You can have more than one infinite plane in the scene.
  • The plane is rendered with the material applied to the VRayPlane object.
  • Shadow maps will do not include information about the plane object. However, other objects will cast correct shadows on the plane, even with shadow maps.
