Chaos Vantage

Chaos Vantage has powerful capabilities enabling you to convey your designs more effectively. Whether you are creating beautiful still renders of architecture or product designs, or you're a media production specialist making animations or films, then you'll love Chaos Vantage's real-time rendering. Chaos Vantage helps to eliminate the lengthy processing times required by traditional rendering tools, which means you can see your changes without waiting hours for your project to render.

Chaos Vantage integrates with other Chaos products, like V-ray, making this a powerful combination for visualising your designs.

Toggle between different moods and variations of your project with the scene states. Visualise realistic vegetation moving in the wind and animated people interacting with their design. Composite your images with support for popular render elements like “back to beauty” and material and object masks.

Use Chaos Vantage as an Archviz Artist

Explore and present unlimited design variations by switching between material schemes, lighting configurations, and design options.

See every aspect of your scene as you model with the real-time companion view. Unaffected by scene size, monitor a highly realistic perspective of your model as you adjust materials, lighting, and geometry.

Render super-fast, producing high-quality renderings and animations at a quality level that makes approvals easy.

Use Chaos Vantage as a VFX Professional

Playblasts at exceptional quality that convey the actual materials and lighting of your production for far more meaningful review and approval.

Previz with full-size scenes, that can be reused in production. Ray tracing in real-time without scene simplification or baking, using the same materials and lighting as your production team.

A real-time ray-traced view that closely matches your production rendering results as you finalise your scene. Also perfect for over-the-shoulder discussions while making decisions.


Scene states

Assign different light setups, materials, object transformation, and post-process looks to different cameras. Easily recall and send them for batch rendering.

Deformed meshes

Animate people and vegetation and create richer animations for your project presentations.

Scatter

Populate your scenes with millions of objects in just a few clicks. Our new scatter tool allows you to quickly and easily create forests, fields, crowds, and more.

Render elements

Add the most popular render elements, as well as object and material masks, to fine-tune your images in post.


No Setup.
All you need to do is drag and drop a complete V-Ray scene into Chaos Vantage to start exploring. There's no geometry to optimise, no lighting to bake, and no UVs to unwrap.

Think Big.
Built to handle even large, complex scenes with billions of polygons, Vantage is the fastest way to see the detail of your scenes in real-time.

Easy Navigation.
Move through your scene just like a game, or with controls similar to your 3D software. Automatic collision detections means you can walk up stairs, and won't walk through walls.

100% Ray Traced.
Using physically based cameras, lights, materials, and global illumination, Vantage offers fully ray traced real-time renders for the most realistic results.

Simple and Fast Animation.
Create, edit, and render animation right within Vantage. Perfect for previsualisation, animate between cameras, apply transitions, and arrange your sequence.

Live Link.
Get a live view of your ray traced scene inside 3ds Max with live link.

What's New In Chaos Vantage 2

Decal with cylindrical projection

Easily add stickers, labels, and other graphics to flat surfaces or cylindrical objects like bottles and jars. Adjust the Decal's projection to perfectly align with the object's surface curvature in just a few clicks.

UDIM texture support

With UDIM texture support, UV mapping and texturing workflows become easier, simplifying UV map generation and texture assignment. Additionally, Vantage is now capable of rendering UDIMs.

Support for VRayBlendMtl

Elevate the art of material blending in your Vantage projects with the newly added support for VRayBlendMtl. This feature allows you to layer and mix complex materials in a physically based way to achieve a photorealistic look.

Hair & Fur

Create realistic carpets, rugs, animal pelts and even grass with Vantage’s support for V-Ray Fur. You can also achieve lifelike hair with precise highlights and customizable glint and glitter controls with the support for VRayHairNextMtl.

Multi-matte render element

With the new Multi Matte render element you have even more control over your rendered images in compositing. It enables selective object isolation, efficient post-production workflows, and fine-tuned masking for achieving pixel-perfect precision in every render.

Displacement

Create intricate geometric details from textures, ideal for designing bas-reliefs, pavements, brick/stone walls, and similar structures that are challenging to model manually.

NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 denoiser

NVIDIA’s AI-powered DLSS 3.5 denoiser enhances rendering speeds by up to three times while preserving visual fidelity. It employs Ray Reconstruction to sharpen images and reduce noise, while panning around a scene.

Refraction glossiness

Create realistic frosted glass effects using the newly added refraction glossiness parameter in V-Ray Material.

Scene states

Assign different light setups, materials, object transformation, and post-process looks to different cameras. Add animations for smooth transitions between different states. Easily recall and send them for batch rendering.

Light creation and placement

You can now create various types of lights directly in Vantage. Use the advanced placement options to achieve lookdev directly in Vantage without any DCC dependency.

Camera grouping with states override

Enjoy a much better and more structured method of grouping cameras and assigning states to these groups. Perfect for over-the-shoulder discussion with clients.

HDR Monitor support

Make your projects extra radiant with HDR monitor support.

Plus...

  • Deforming meshes: Bring people and vegetation to life and create richer animations for your project presentations.
  • Render Elements: Add the most popular render elements, as well as object and material masks, to fine-tune your images in post.
  • Support for Anima4D assets: Vnntage has partnered with AXYZ to provide support for its high-quality 3D library of animated 4D people and crowds.
  • Extended animations: Take even more .vrscene animation effects into Vantage. From flickering and fading lights to animating the tiling offset, your animated materials, textures, and lights now work seamlessly in Vantage.
  • Scatter: Populate your scenes with millions of objects in just a few clicks. Our new scatter tool allows you to quickly and easily create forests, fields, crowds, and more.
  • Scattering fog: Set the mood for your scenes with realistic environmental effects such as god rays, light shafts through windows, streetlights, with volumetric fog with realistic light scattering.
