A simple script to remove the raytrace maps (Actually - replace them with empty bitmaps) from the scene's material library. This is for people using Vray/Mental ray as raytrace maps may (and will) slow down rendering times considerably

Manages the creation of VRay Light Select Elements based on a layer naming convention.

All lights on a layer will be included in that Light Select Element.

Layers are found by matching the pattern of the nameTag variable. You can change this variable if necessary for your pipeline by using the slender button at the top of the dialog.

Default nameTag = "*lgt_*"  (fe: lgt_sun, lgt_key, etc...)

Bakes cameras per frame with optional transform, and optional frame range buffer.

By default this bakes the camera in World Space which is generally what you want. There is an option to bake the camera in Parent space if you check the box "Bake camera in selected objects space".

Creates a VRay Light Select Element for each light in your scene.

Elements are named with prefix of the nameTag variable. You can change this variable if necessary for your pipeline. To do so you will need to open the script and modify the variable within the struct.

Default nameTag = "lgt_"

GTVFX-SCA_RenderSettingsHelper

This tool exposes the main VRay settings that contribute to the quality of the final rendered image and puts them into one quickly accessible dialog.

I recomend using this in combination with the VRaySampleRate render element to fine tune your renders for speed and quality.

 

 

 

VrayExposureTool

A tool for tuning the color mapping in V-ray. The script renders only once. After that it works like post effect so you have interactive update of the scene without need to render again. Works ONLY with linear color mapping, exponential and reinhard (not 100% correct)

1.43 Update:

  • Added "render" button, the script won't render at startup
  • Added option "show vfb"
  • Added option "Optimize render"

Render exr files for Nuke (zips)

2 votes

This script will create exr files from vrimg files rendered with Vray; they are saved as zips, and half float for best compatibility when working in Nuke.

The way it works is very simple, it takes the frame saved as vrimg format saved by vray, and right after it creates a exr saved as zips and half-float, by running the tool included with vray vrimg2exr.exe; This is done with a callback script post rendered frame, so if is a sequence of frames, they will all get converted as they finish rendering.
