Chaos Group V-Ray Next, Update 2.2 (build 4.20.03) for Rhino | 450.3 mb
Chaos Group is pleased to announce the availability of V-Ray Next, Update 2.2 (build 4.20.03) for Rhino, the first smart renderer made for designers. Tailored tools have expanded the core capabilities of Rhino and Grasshopper, linking photorealistic rendering, scene intelligence and asset management into a powerful new workflow that centralizes the design/visualization experience.

Improvements & Bug Fixes
- Chaos Group License Server is updated to version 5.5.0
- V-Ray Swarm is updated to version 1.4.4
- Chaos Cloud client application is updated to version 1.7.5
- The Chaos Group License Server web page now automatically opens after successful V-Ray installation
- The Material Random Color render element now correctly generates unique colors for materials passed through a Two Sided shader or ones using the Translucency attribute
- Coat layers (Diffuse or Reflection) added to a material that has no other base layer no longer display the full set of VRay Mtl parameters
- CUDA hybrid rendering in bucket mode no longer leads to exception in V-Ray Core when NVLink is used
- A separate alpha image file is no longer saved out for Bongo animations, when the output file format supports an alpha channel. Selecting .bmp, .jpg or .hdr will still result in the creation of a separate file, since this data can not be stored in the original file. The same applies to the 'SaveRenderWindowAs' rhino command
- V-Ray light instances no longer get automatically renamed in Rhino. This improves both various user workflows as well as 3rd party plugin integrations
- The V-Ray Material From Project component in Grasshopper now accepts integer or string value inputs
