An automated OCIO configuration can be set with the OCIO environment variable. There are а few steps you need to follow to set this up: - Download the Open Color IO configuration package from GitHub: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenColorIO-Config-ACES/releases
Set the OCIO environment variable and point it to the config.ocio file.
For example, to set up the OCIO configuration with aces_1.3: set OCIO=C:\OpenColorIO-Configs\cg-config-v1.0.0_aces-v1.3_ocio-v2.0.ocio |
3.When the VFB Display Correction is switched to OCIO, V-Ray reads the OCIO variable and loads the configuration there as well. See the Getting Started with Environment Variables page for more information.
The automated OCIO configuration can be further adjusted with the following VFB OCIO environment variables: VRAY_VFB_OCIO_INPUT_COLORSPACE – Specifies default overriding OCIO input color space. VRAY_VFB_OCIO_DISPLAY_DEVICE – Specifies default overriding OCIO display device. VRAY_VFB_OCIO_VIEW_TRANSFORM – Specifies default overriding OCIO view transform. VRAY_VFB_OCIO – Automatically switches the OCIO button of the V-Ray VFB on. For example, set a override OCIO input color space, display device, and view transform: set OCIO=C:\OpenColorIO-Configs\cg-config-v1.0.0_aces-v1.3_ocio-v2.0.ocio
set VRAY_VFB_OCIO=1
set VRAY_VFB_OCIO_INPUT_COLORSPACE=ACEScg
set VRAY_VFB_OCIO_DISPLAY_DEVICE=sRGB
set VRAY_VFB_OCIO_VIEW_TRANSFORM=ACES 1.0 - SDR Video |
This setup requires using all of the variables, including the OCIO variable pointed to an OCIO configuration file. |
The values for the input color space, display device, and view transform variables need to match the settings available in the configuration file. This example may not work with OCIO configurations other than the one used in the example. For example, VRAY_VFB_OCIO_VIEW_TRANSFORM needs to match a "ACES 1.0 - SDR Video" view transform from the configuration file. |
When rendering with V-Ray Standalone or using distributed rendering, the OCIO environment variables must be set accordingly on all machines used for rendering. The OCIO configuration files used in V-Ray VFB aren't automatically collected with the rest of the scene assets when sending a job for rendering to another machine. Use the OCIO configuration files from a shared location or copy the files manually to your render nodes to avoid mismatch in render output. |
