Transform how you create.

V-Ray 7 transforms how you create. Create 3D environments faster, optimise your design workflows and deliver immersive experiences for your clients. With an innovative toolset that is intuitive for beginners and powerful for seasoned visualisers, with V-Ray 7 you can meet tight deadlines and produce high-quality results quickly.

What’s new in V-Ray 7 for SketchUp and Rhino? 


Build 3D environments faster than ever. 

3D Gaussian Splatting

V-Ray 7 is the first raytracer on the market to leverage the Gaussian Splatting tech, enabling users to easily incorporate and render captures of complex 3D environments and objects.

Enhance your presentation experience. 

Interactive virtual tours

Clearly communicate your design concepts and effectively showcase your spaces. Allow clients to explore your designs through virtual tours, using highlights to direct their attention to key focal points. Hosted on Chaos Cloud, you can easily access the virtual tours directly from the V-Ray Frame Buffer.

Streamline workflows with intelligent tools. 

Material override and presets

Take advantage of new override material features, combined with stylised rendering presets for fast iterations over schematic or diagrammatic render styles.

Scatter edge trimming

Scatter objects with ease. Trim edges and have better control over the scattered areas.

Cosmos asset variations

With predefined variants for specific Cosmos assets, it’s easy to find the perfect props for your project. Additionally, you can now replace object materials without breaking the asset’s connection to Cosmos.

Hundreds of brand-new assets

Make use of 400+ brand-new assets in Chaos Cosmos, including vegetation, people, fabrics, and furniture. The library is continually expanding, with more brands offering purchasable sofas, chairs, and other items.

Automatic denoising

Enabled by default, the automatic denoising streamlines workflows, seamlessly switching between interactive and production engines with configurable settings.

Next-level creative control now in the VFB. 

Colour correction filters

Experiment with different looks for your renders using the new built-in colour correction filters in the VFB. You can also easily customise these presets to perfectly match your creative vision.

Freeform render region

Re-render specific areas of an image with a custom polygon shape. Create multiple regions in any shape and focus precisely on the areas you want to fine-tune.

Vignette layer

Add a subtle retro effect to your renders or draw attention to elements with the versatile Vignette Layer in the VFB. Vignette Layer in the VFB. Adjust its shape and apply it to any render element for finely tuned, custom results.

Stop rendering anytime

Stop rendering anytime while still applying post effects to your image. This option is easily accessible through the context menu.

Light Mix for emissive materials

Now supporting all emissive materials, with Light Mix you can adjust intensity and colour independently for better lighting control and customisable renders.

Empower your artistic vision. 

Layered textures

Create high-detail textures with a Photoshop-style powerful new layering system. Stack and personalise each texture layer with complete control over opacity, blending modes, and more.

Gradient texture remapping

Enjoy advanced UV mapping capabilities, enabling precise texture manipulation and better control over colour distribution. Perfect for detailed applications like pattern colorisation, brick randomisation, and custom wallpaper design.

Luminaires

Explore the latest optimised light fixture assets in Chaos Cosmos, designed using V-Ray Luminaires technology. These assets are now much easier to sample and render at faster speeds.

Even better V-Ray Sun & Sky

With the updated PRG Sky, you can create vibrant, richly saturated blue skies and realistic sunsets. It allows you to render the sky at various observer altitudes, reaching up to several kilometres.

Power up your rendering. 

Optimised SketchUp viewport rendering

The reworked Viewport Rendering (VPR) in SketchUp 2024 offers enhanced performance, providing smoother, faster, and more efficient rendering.

Faster V-Ray GPU and caustics

Experience faster time to first pixel, resulting in quicker rendering and improved visual quality. V-Ray GPU now supports caustics rendering, enabling realistic reflections and refractions.


“I’m thrilled by the speed and quality of renders I’ve achieved with V-Ray 7—it’s truly a significant leap forward. Features like Gaussian Splats, enhanced material layering, and the latest updates to the V-Ray Frame Buffer are incredibly exciting and will undoubtedly streamline my visualisation workflow.”

Matthew Valero, Director of Visualisation at DBVW Architects


“One of my favourite features in V-Ray 7 for Rhino is the Layered textures. This intuitive yet powerful tool allows me to effortlessly create complex materials”

Fernando Rentas, Visualisation lead for Collins
