Direct Render Saves – A streamlined workflow now allows for direct saves to a Revit project from the V-Ray Frame Buffer.
Settings & Work-Sharing – V-Ray settings can now be saved within a Revit project, making it easy to adopt and share the same render settings across teams and projects. Revit Decals – With full support for Revit Decals, users can now easily render paintings, signs, screens and more. Improved Toolbar – Redesigned icons and features make for a more intuitive user experience. Lighting Analysis – Easily evaluate real-world lux values from daylight and fixtures to determine the true illumination levels of a design. Randomize Objects – Add variety to plants and trees by randomizing the scale and rotation of V-Ray Proxy and V-Ray Scene instances. vrscene linking, architects can now quickly populate visualizations with high-quality entourage from any V-Ray product, giving designs a more custom look. Appearance Manager – Basic Revit assets can now be switched to photoreal V-Ray assets at render time to keep BIM models unaffected and clean. Advanced materials give designers even more control when fine-tuning their designs, simplifying the process of recreating real-world materials with complex surfaces. New Asset Editor – Create, edit, save and manage V-Ray materials all in one place.
“V-Ray Next is not just the next step in our evolution, it’s helping Revit do things it couldn’t do before.” “We’ve distilled four years of R&D into a tool that will instantly make sense to architects, so they can save more time as they move from concept to construction,” said Ana Lyubenova, product specialist for Revit at Chaos Group. Architects can now be more creative in their favorite tool, using dozens of new features and improvements to produce photorealistic imagery faster than ever before. Today, Chaos Group launches V-Ray Next for Revit, building scene intelligence, asset management and simple workflows deep into the design process.
