VRay for C4D is the new high end GI rendering engine for professional Maxon Cinema 4D users based on the VRay standalone. VRay for C4D is fully integrated into the Cinema 4D interface, deeper than any other C4D 3rd party engine to date.

Illumination

Shaders

• Physically plausible materials with true BRDF layered Material for highly realistic materials
• Blurry reflections/refractions with true anisotropy
• Accurate multi layered highlights with detailed control
• Very fast and realistic Sub-surface scattering, physical based in BRDF and fast SSS2
• Very fast thin surface sub surface scattering, translucency
• material lumiance wit detailed texture and intensity control, (new auto compensations for floating point phycam usage)
• Support for efficient material layering with blend material and within BRDF Material
• Material override, custom reflection environments per shader; GI; refraction, shadow overrides
• Matte compositing tag with detailed matte control
• displacement material for optional separate mapping to displacement with subdivision on render time feature.
• Extensible with custom shaders through the V-Ray SDK

Camera Effects

• Depth-of-field with bokeh effects
• Motion blur (some limitations like deformed objects not yet supported p.e.)
• Physical camera model, pinhole lens, fisheye & 360 degree lenses
• white balance, lens correction, x,y camera offset
• Extensible with custom cameras through the V-Ray SDK
• pinhole lens to composite with other render like AR that use no physical lens.

Extras

Integration with MAXON Cinema4d

• All features accessible from within Cinema4d (no external applications required)
• support for unlimited render nodes with use of MAXON NET render unlimited
• Support for most (95%)of the native Cinema4d shaders within the VRAY BRDF advanced Material, like layer shader, noise, fresnel, falloff, proximal, all procedual texture shaders; also most third party texture shaders
• supports native Cinema4d camera and light objects
• support for native Picture viewer, including gamma and image controls
• supports all native Cinema4d geometry
• support for xrefs (xrefed geometry)
• support for instance objects and all other cloners, deformers, generators
• support for rhino.io plugin
• support of imported geometry from archicad, allplan, vectorworks, autocad, sketchup, 3dmax, Rhino, fbx, collada, etc
• support for direct editor rendering, render region, interactive render
• support for thinking particles, clothilde, mocca, bodypaint generated textures
• can directly render MAXON hair (in any geometry mode)
• supports mograph geometry and partly mograph shaders
• uses native Cinema4d mapping & UV system
• supports native c4d light "lens effects"
• automatic proxy generation tool (proxy tag), generates on the fly vrmeshes, even of hierarchical object groups

System & license Requirements

• A computer (Intel mac or PC) with a licenses MAXON Cinema4d v10.5+, v11.0.21+ or 11.5.30+ and v12.0+ installation. The VRAYforC4D license will be locked to the MAXON license it is bought for , like with most other Cinema4d plugins (please read the EULA in Manual for license details). at major Cinema4d updates like from v10 to v11, new license keys will be given out at no additional cost. All updates until 1.5 (including 1.5) are free to all customers.
• Supported OS: Microsoft® Windows Vista® Business (SP1 or higher), Microsoft® Windows® XP Professional (SP2 or higher), 32-bit or 64-bit versions (64-bit is recommended);  Apple® Mac OS® X 10.5.7 or higher operating system (64-bit);
• Intel Pentium III or compatible processor at 400 MHz minimum (intel core duo/ AMD Opteron or better recommended); for best performance at least 4 cpu cores and 2gb ram per cpu core (at least 4gb minimum).

Please provide the first 11 digits of your Cinema4D serial number (NOT the 10.5 or 11.5 Module numbers) The number must start with 1.....and it must have exactly 11 digits. The download information will come directly from the developer by email. Please allow up to 48 business hours to receive.
