These parameters control the V-Ray messages displayed in the Maya Output Window and V-Ray Frame Buffer Log panel. During rendering, V-Ray writes various information in the file vray4maya_log.txt located in the Windows respective temporary folder. The Output Window (and VFB) shows some of that information so that you can view it without the need to manually open that file.

The V-Ray log file can be found by default in the following places:

Windows: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\vray4maya_log.txt

Linux: var/tmp/vray4maya_log.txt

macOS: in the current temp folder.

You can manually change where the V-Ray log file is saved using environment variables. See more in the Environment Variables page.

Each message falls into one of four categories: Errors, Warnings, Informative messages and Debug messages.

...

Progress increment Controls the intervals at which V-Ray prints out messages. The default value of 10 means that V-Ray prints out messages at every 10% of the render time.
