Vray For Maya: Vray Material Part 2

Here's the 2nd part on the vray material. It covers the refractive portions of the material, some extra bits, and the very simple, blend material.

Posted the next video in the Vray for Maya training series. This one is on the basics of the Vray Material. It had to be broken into 2 parts, so the next one touches on the Blend material, and finishes the Vray Material. Sorry to have it messy like that, but I record, and don't track my time very well;)

Vray for Maya: Vray Frame Buffer

This video goes over how to use the Vray Framebuffer, and its integration into Maya. Hopefully it helps your (linear) workflow.

Vray For Maya: Nederhorst Settings

This video gets you up-and-running with some production-proven render settings originally outlined by Robert Nederhorst. Thanks to him, and the Chaos Group team, we have some really useful and simple ways to render complex scenes. It may look a bit tricky at first to set it up, but by all means, save it a preset. I use a preset and apply it at the start of my scene, then set the vray common attribs afterward. You can also text edit the preset, and comment out all the bits that modify the common tab.
