Chaos Group V-Ray for SketchUp 5

Building terrain for your models is significantly streamlined thanks to the new scattering tool. Create detailed scenes by adding hundreds, thousands, or millions of objects and Chaos Cosmos models on any surface in an intuitive and memory-efficient way. Control their size, orientation, and density for maximum realism.

Take your design to the next level with Chaos Vantage. With Live Link, you can explore even your most complex scenes in pure ray-traced real-time with zero setup. Navigate and interact with your model’s true lighting and materials, and create animations and images with ease.

Our curated collection of render-ready 3D content adds an important new category: materials. Take advantage of 200 new assets for your next project, including terrain, tiles, wooden floors, and more. Use them out-of-the-box or edit their color, bump, and gloss to fit your vision.

Complex realism for transparent and translucent materials is made simple with the updated V-Ray Material. Easily create glass material for single-sided objects with the thin-walled option. Set up translucent materials like plastic or wax with a few clicks through the SSS and Volumetric translucency modes.

With the new V-Ray Decal, you can easily project unique materials onto objects of any shape and create effects like graffiti on a wall, markings on a road, or logos on a product.

Add popular camera effects sharpen and blur in the V-Ray Frame Buffer when polishing your final renders.

Now you can share your scene with others to experience in real-time 3D on their own machine without the need for any additional software or license. Just hit export and reviewers can experience your full scene, with the full functionality of V-Ray Vision including navigation controls, color correction parameters, and more.

Animations can be exported directly from Vision as a video in a WebM format, saving you time manually combining image sequences.
