Licensing V-Ray

Setting Up a Render


Setting up V-Ray as the Nuke renderer is simple. In any render setup, replace the Nuke ScanlineRender node with the VRayRenderer node, and connect it to the scene and camera.

Below is a simple setup using the VRayRenderer. The V-Ray for Nuke QuickStart Intro provides additional information for getting started, including creating a comparison scene between the Nuke Scanline renderer and V-Ray renderer.
