It takes a while to get the good setting for maxwell and it is faster to learn compared to Vray (took me 5 years to get a hang on Vray for 3dsmax and only took me less than a year to get a hang on maxwell).Īlso, if you are an architect, all maxwell unit are in SI, that means your lighting setting will be physically correct and u can use that for lighting study for your interior scene. Simply because Vray version for rhino is outdated (2.0) if you compare it to 3ds max or maya, Vray for Rhino is no match. I have been using Maxwell for Rhino, although it is super slow but it gives me the best result compared to Vray. Which one would you recommend as an alternative to vray?

We do mostly product design (printers, tools, perfume bottles) and sometimes transportation interiors (trains and buses). I tried Maxwell but I was not very impressed, I would like a fully-integrated render plugin. Then I was wondering, which renderer for Rhino has the widest userbase?īrazil and Flamingo claim to be the “greatest and fastest” of them all, of course. Some suggest the userbase is too scarce to justify a decent support. vray 2.0 has benn out for a year and the user manual is stuck at v. Their choice of using a usb dongle (located on our server) is a pain in the neck, I cannot render when I take my laptop home, and vray checks for the license every time you hit a button, if the network is slow or congested that means freezing or crashing Rhino.įurthermore, vray for rhino documentation is hilarious. We use Rhino 5, 64 bit, and we currently use vray. It’s probably been asked many times, but I couldn’t find any recent reply (all before 2008).
