It is rare that the actual problem sits in the computer – more often, it sits in front of it. By liberally test-rendering in interactive mode, your production render should be free from big surprises.

The longing for performance is mostly some kind of computer nerd revenge fantasy.

That said, for typical scenes at up to about 10 megapixels, any current computer should calculate a complete production render at least overnight. If you know how a renderer works under the hood, it is easy to make scenes that more or less break it. Render times will vary greatly depending on scene setup. High resolutions bring weaknesses to the fore, encouraging discipline. 💡 Using higher resolution than strictly necessary may give more freedom in the post-production stage. ⚡ Ramp up the resolution generously for the final render. Resolving more details helps spot new weaknesses to amend. Use render regions and increase resolution gradually. More than 99 % of all frame buffer starts are for quick testing. This means that intermittent quick render tests are frequently needed. 💡 The point of rendering is that it should look noticeably different from the modeling viewport.

⚡ Before the final rendering, make plenty of incremental render tests. Here, we will just share a few considerations on performance and memory. Modo support will be discontinued at the end of 2021.🚩 Rendering itself is by far the easiest step. The desktop 3D applications that are supported by V-Ray are:Īcademic and stand-alone versions of V-Ray are also available. V-Ray is a rendering engine that uses global illumination algorithms, including path tracing, photon mapping, irradiance maps and directly computed global illumination. V-Ray is a commercial plug-in for third-party 3D computer graphics software applications and is used for visualizations and computer graphics in industries such as media, entertainment, film and video game production, industrial design, product design and architecture. V-Ray is a biased computer-generated imagery rendering software application developed by Bulgarian software company Chaos. Render created using V-Ray for Rhinoceros 3D, demonstrating the advanced effects V-Ray is capable of, such as reflection, depth of field, and the shape of the aperture (in this case, a hexagon)
