Additional Components

In this step you can opt to install the License Server and V-Ray Swarm. Press the Continue button to proceed with the installation. Check the V-Ray Swarm page for setting up V-Ray Swarm from its designated installer.

Settings

Optimize V-Ray for Revit installation by manually setting the location folder where V-Ray is installed. V-Ray Swarm "on" and "off" functions are also available here.

Destination location – Specify an installation location for V-Ray for Revit.

V-Ray Material library – Specify a download location for the Materials Library and Cosmos Assets.

V-Ray Swarm Enabled – When enabled, after the installation is complete, V-Ray Swarm is activated by default.

Don't use local machine – When enabled, the local machine is excluded from rendering. However, V-Ray Swarm continues to use a small percentage of the local machine's resources to communicate with the nodes.

Goal – Sets the desired percentage of utilization of available resources. Computers added to or removed from V-Ray Swarm are taken into account automatically.

Auto-Discovery – When enabled, the installation searches for other nodes in the network.

Tags – Tag this node with a descriptor that defines something about the machine and use it for selective control from inside of Revit. Separate each tag by a comma. For more information, check the Swarm page.

Licensing

Specify whether the V-Ray License Server runs locally or on another machine.

The Remote option requires the IP address of your V-Ray license server to be filled in the Primary License Server field. Please, leave the port 30304 unchanged. An Alternate License Server is used when the primary one does not respond.
