It has a dedicated user-base who heavily influence the development, giving it a unique mix of usability, performance, and value.īlender presents a user-interface unlike any other on the market, and might take a few pointed tutorials to become familiar with it. It’s an open-source modeling program that comes on-board with its very own proprietary rendering engine called Cycles. It’s impossible to talk about free rendering software without first mentioning Blender. These programs are great for visualization newcomers, or those looking to build out there skillset with something they don’t have sell their first-born child to download. Luckily, there are several great alternatives to V-Ray that don’t come slapped with a hefty price tag and a user’s manual the size of an ancient tome. However, for many casual renderers or those looking to dip their toes in the proverbial water, dropping the cost and time commitment required to best utilize V-Ray is a daunting uphill climb that typically results in regret and disappointment. Very few people who are even closely associated with computers and graphics technology know what Chaos Group’s flagship software is, and how dominant it is in terms of user-base and capability. In the “Render Engine” field, select “Cycles” and in “Device” field select “GPU Compute”.V-Ray has been lining the bed of the visualization and rendering industry since the early days of computer generated graphics.
In the scene settings pane, by default in the bottom right, select the “Render Properties” tab, indicated by a camera icon.Select the “System” tab in the left hand navigation, then under “Cycles Render devices” select “OptiX”.From the “Edit” menu, select “Preferences”.To turn on RTX acceleration in Blender 2.81: Rendering with OptiX and RTX GPUs, artists can now complete their renders two times faster than it would take with CUDA accelerated rendering, and up to seven times faster than only using a CPU.
With the 2.81 release, Blender’s built-in Cycles renderer, brings RTX hardware acceleration by adding experimental support of NVIDIA OptiX. Click here for more details.īlender, the free and open source 3D creation suite is also releasing a new RTX-accelerated renderer this week. Going back and forth between the two paths will only modify what processors are being used, so there’s minimal effort to compare the two.ĭon’t have V-Ray? Chaos Group is offering a free 30-day trial of V-Ray for 3ds Max with RTX support built-in. Your image results should be the same between the two without modifying any other setting or adjusting your scene – it just works. Within 3ds Max, you will now find a drop-down choice to use our traditional CUDA path or our new RTX path.
