Render to Disk – Starts a V-Ray render.

When V-Ray is set as the renderer, V-Ray parameters are organized under several tabs in the renderer parameters. Additionally, some tabs have sub-tabs to help keep the settings organized.

  • Globals  – Common parameters for the V-Ray renderer, such as the production and RT renderer
  • Objects – Provides options identical to the Mantra renderer Objects tab.
  • Camera – Settings relating to the render camera
  • GI – Selection and settings for primary and secondary GI engines, GI caustics

Note: In V-Ray, the two tools that most greatly impact the balance of render quality vs. speed are the Image Sampler | Anti-Aliasing (under the Sampler tab) and GI engine(s) (under the GI tab). Learning the basics of how these two features work will greatly enhance your ability to adjust settings in V-Ray and maximize image quality while keeping render times to a minimum. See the linked pages for explanations on how these features work.
