V-Ray for Unreal Beta released!

The fastest, simplest way for you to:

• Bring V-Ray scenes into real-time
• Render ray traced images directly from Unreal

Now in open beta, we’re excited to introduce V-Ray for Unreal. Now you can bring V-Ray scenes from 3ds Max, Maya and SketchUp directly into the Unreal Editor. And for the first time, you can render ray traced, photorealistic images with V-Ray directly from Unreal. 

• Create the scene the same way you normally do using V-Ray for 3ds Max, Maya and SketchUp. Then, export a V-Ray scene from your host application and import it using V-Ray for Unreal.
• When you import your scene, V-Ray for Unreal automatically converts your materials and lights into real-time equivalents for UE workflows.
• At the same time, your original materials from V-Ray for 3ds Max, Maya and SketchUp remain connected to their real-time versions and are called up when you’re ready to render. 

• When you render with V-Ray for Unreal, you get the exact same photorealistic quality that V-Ray is known for.
• V-Ray taps into the full combined power of your GPUs and CPUs for ultrafast ray tracing.
• Once your V-Ray scene is imported, you’ll be ready to take full advantage of the VR capabilities in the Unreal Editor.
• V-Ray for Unreal makes it fast and easy to create high quality, immersive VR.
• Now you can build great looking real-time experiences and ray traced renders all from a single, shared workflow using V-Ray for Unreal.
