  • .vrimg is a Chaos proprietary file format used by the V-Ray Frame Buffer to store the rendered image incrementally (bucket by bucket) while rendering in full floating-point format, with all available render elements. It is used as a render output but it is not recommended to use it as a texture file format. VRIMG contains metadata, i.e. render statistics. It supports dynamic bucket size.

    If the 'Render in Cloud' and 'Cloud Batch Render' icons remain grey make sure the Interactive render mode in the Asset Editor's 'Settings' panel is turned off

    .

  • The Batch Render tool only supports animation jobs for rendering on the local machine. Animations are omitted from batch jobs to Chaos Cloud.
