Chaos Group has released a new series of tutorials to help users learn V-Ray. Following a basic introduction the principles, several videos focus on specific topics including lighting a daytime exterior, lighting a nighttime exterior, lighting a daytime interior, lighting a nighttime interior and finally a video about material creation.

There will never be a better tutorial than Grant Warwick. Period!
yeah and he took everyone’s money and never finished the courses…
Yeah i heard that… could you elaborate? It was the mastering lighting course that he didnt finish? Why not? How many tutorials were missing?
Had bad experience with that dude and his ‘course’ that is now irrelevant and not the way to do things in vray.
Yepp, that is how it ended….
49 minutes for 768 x 800?
1 hour 30 minutes for 1400 x 768?
Where are those render times?! 8o
Unless we know the specs of the workstations, these times are meaningless. These videos might be recorded on laptop, who knows.
It is hard to believe the official ChaosGroup tutorials get recorded on an ACER Aspire Switch. They have both capital and intentions to put the best of best together.
What would be the advantage of recording high-end video tutorials on Intel I3 with 2GB OnBoard GC…
I think it was done on a good machine; the quality-look costs time, i would say.
The only problem I have is that after seeing the last Unreal interior shot (in realtime, check cgpress latest posts), the gap between the looks closes slowly, especially when it comes to animations.
At least we know it was rendered in a 12 core machine 🙂
I wish they gave some love to PhoenixFD tutorials too.
Same here. I found Phoenix quite daunting. Redefine fx has some really good tutorials
Tadaa 😀 https://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/PHX4MAX/Tutorials+and+Examples
Very good tutorial, thank you!
