+1 the material editor worked better in version 3. Please fix before beta 5 runs out on the 31st.

Is there a Tutorial or manual instructions for creating textures in the new beta V-ray. To me it seemed that you had more control in creating and editing textures in the previous version than you do now having it integrated into the software.

Is anyone else have depth of field issues in the beta. The focal point does not seem to be reading correctly distance of item selected is blurred no matter how I adjust the sliders of the camera depth of field settings.

Is there a way to group lights so they can be adjusted with one slider in light mixer. Also all emissive textures come in as one slider in light mixer is there a way to separate the emissive textures so they have individual sliders.

I used the draft workspace in version 8 for quick dim. callouts. Where is it in V9, I don't want to do a compete drafting layout.

So far the beta for formZ and vray seems stable. I have been experimenting with light mix. It works well and is stable. I am not sure if it is available yet or maybe I haven't found it yet but, I have not been able to group the lights. I haven't notice a huge speed increase as I can't access the video card technology.

Has anyone experimented with exporting from Form-z to octane render. They are offering it free to Mac users as it can use the macs GPU to render. Any feedback would be helpfully. speed, usability, and quality. Thanks.

What is the upgrade cost? just upgrade to 5.1, I hope the are not asking for additional 595.00 for 5.2.

I went on to the portal and form-z is not an option for Maxwell 5. Please try to workout the plug in

It's an interior scene using plane lights. I have used the same set up in the past, usually with 4-8 lights. I understand about the GPU and CPU configuation dilemma with macs, but the speed so far has been fantastic. just not sure what happen with file file.

I have a Imac pro with 8 cores and it has been very capable at outputting renderings. The longest has been about 30 mins at 2500x1200 with glass, chrome, frosted glass and grass finishes. I just had a project where the file took over 3 hours to render and suggestions on why that file took so long to render.

We I create a mess light it will not allow me Copy and move the new light. Anyone else having this issue.

Most exhibit lighting is LED or halogen which run cold. Even the show halls lights are now LEDs which also run on the cool side. I only added warmer lighting if i have incondesance lighting within the space or a lighting rig that the client has requested.

Here are a couple of exhibit rendedrings.

Will cloud rendering be added in next update?
