In this tutorial, we will look at the difference between the regular zoom inside the Vray Frame Buffer, and the Real zoom. The benefit of using Real zoom is that it acts as if you're getting closer to the actual geometries in your scene and rendering them, also, in this mode you can check out other parts of your scene, not included in your actual rendering limits, without the need to mess up your camera location, or, if you're in a perspective viewport, messing up your viewpoint.

In this video, we will see how, when cloning a Group, we can instance the transforms of objects inside the groups. Also, starting from minute 2:08, we will see how we can make the transforms unique again, to avoid issues when, for example, trying to detach an object from a group while its transforms are instanced.

In this tutorial, we will take a look at a powerful and useful V-Ray material called Vray Switch Material (VraySwitchMtl). We will see two ways on how to use it, a simple straightforward way, and a more advanced way.
