Hi all, Just a quick note that we have just made V-Ray rendering available in http://Clara.io -- it is currently available to everyone. I've giving you guys the first heads up on this.
The Clara.io design in this area is inspired in part by Softimage -- we have similar renderer and pass management as well as live render viewport (although not sub-regions yet.) :) Here is an introductory tutorial on how to use it, including its live streaming options: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpQ4lKsq6Us Here is a tutorial on how our V-Ray proxy system works to allow you to render large amounts of geometry -- there is no need to be limited by the capabilities of one's browser or internet connection: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7q1wMps9dyE Here is how to create a mesh light: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTF_kkeGuPI Features that will be released in the next week or so include: - Material library with with over 200 real-world presets (including preview images.) - Area lights - preview image here: http://goo.gl/5NBEha - Much improved stability - Background rendering with email notification (we have this working, we just can't easily manage the queue yet) -- Best regards, Ben Houston Voice: 613-762-4113 Skype: ben.exocortex Twitter: @exocortexcom http://Clara.io - Professional-Grade WebGL-based 3D Content Creation
