Some screen-space effects are disabled in Video mode to avoid artifacts. Note that in Image sequence and Video modes only Standard camera and VR Spherical Panorama projection are supported. Note that the value of this parameter will not be saved with the project and has to be manually set. Note that the state of this parameter will not be saved with the project and has to be manually set.Īmbient Light Intensity – Controls the intensity of the ambient lighting. An ambient white/gray color will be used as indirect environment. When enabled, the project's environment will remain visible in the background but will no longer affect the diffuse indirect illumination and the reflections. This mode can be used to remove the blue sky tint from interior renders. It is not recommended to enable it if there is no single distinct bright spot in the image used for lighting.Īmbient Light Mode – Enables the ambient lighting mode. The option has no effect if the project Sun is enabled. Calculated in seconds.Īutomatic IBL Sun – Automatically adds a directional light based on the brightest spot in an HDR image. Smooth Movement Delay – The time it takes the camera to gradually cease after being moved during Fly Mode. Mouse Sensitivity – Changes the mouse speed when looking around in Fly Mode. When disabled, the vertical camera orientation is ignored and the movement is constrained to the horizontal plane.įly Speed (m/s) – The movement speed measured in meters per second.

Hold the Left Mouse Button to look around.įree Flight – In free flight the forward movement of the camera is determined by the view direction. Holding down Space temporarily increases the movement speed. Use the W, A, S, D, Q, E keys on the keyboard to move around. This option can store two independent values based on whether Auto Exposure is active.įly Mode – Changes the view navigation mode. completely black background surrounding a model), they may produce an exaggerated exposure value adjustment.ĮV Compensation – Multiplies the exposure value of the camera or the value calculated by the Auto Exposure (when active). Note that when enabled, if there are sizeable very dark or light portions of the buffer (e.g. Note that this is a compute expensive option and needs multiple frames to achieve good-looking results.Īuto Exposure 1– Enables auto exposure. Temporal Anti-aliasing – Enables a higher quality anti-aliasing method. Changing the Sun size affects the shadow softness. High – High quality shadow map filtering is used. Medium – Medium quality shadow map filtering is used. Shadow map size is decreased during scene interactions. Low – Low quality shadow map filtering is used. Shadows Quality – Controls the quality of Sun, Directional, Omni and Spot lights. The scene will be automatically reloaded when the option is changed which might take a while depending on the project's complexity. Note that enabling this option might have major impact on performance and loading time depending on the assets used. When this option is enabled the highest level will be used when the camera is close to the object. Cosmos assets have multiple levels of detail and by default Vision loads lighter meshes for increased performance. High quality Cosmos Assets – Displays a high quality version of each Cosmos asset close to the camera.

The full mesh is visible up close, whereas the proxy preview mesh is displayed in distance.

See the V-Ray Vision tutorial or the Courseware page for more information.Įnable Proxy LOD – Enables the LOD switching for Proxy Mesh assets. In this case, in order for the modifications to be displayed, the source file has to be reloaded. In addition to loading scenes directly from SketchUp, V-Ray Vision is able to load. Stopping the live link, by either clicking the SketchUp toolbar's V-Ray Vision button or any of V-Ray's Render buttons, ends the connection but does not clear the loaded scene. This means that while it is running, a live link is established that sends to the viewer all updates made to the SketchUp scene. When V-Ray Vision is launched, it automatically loads the current SketchUp project and starts an interactive session. It comes with its very own auto-exposure, tonemapping, and color correction options. In addition to its main function as a viewer, V-Ray Vision can produce spherical panoramas and quick output of both still frames and animation sequences. Due to its speed, it can serve as a powerful alternative viewport that provides better lighting and material representation as well as camera animation playback controls. It is a lightweight “game engine” (rasterizer) that does not currently use any type of ray-tracing.

V-Ray Vision is a real-time viewer that can be used in any project set up for V-Ray rendering.
