Building Visions attended the VRAY event in London Hilton at Hyde Park today as we are always keen to here about new technology that may help speed up our work flow even further. The Chaos Software team gave us demonstration of their new real-time rendering engine for 3dsMax which will be officially be released on 1st June 2009 (Maya users will have to wait until the end of the year), and also gave advice on how to get the most out of their newly released V-Ray 1.50SP3 (1.50 Service Pack 3). In addition they showed off a new product called pdplayer - the professional tool (similar to virtualdub but offers much more) for multi-layered sequences preview, basic compositing and color corrections in real time, which supports multi-layers, 3D LUTs, HTTP communication for collaborate work and so on.

It certainly looks like the The Chaos Software team are on track with their realtime rendering solution, and we wish them continued success.
