vrRenderSettingsTypes

Transparency rendering mode used by rasterization renderers.

ObjectSorting

DepthPeeling

Real-time environment shadows mode used by rasterization renderers (Vulkan or OpenGL) if enabled.

Off

No real-time environment shadows.

ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusion

See vrdScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionSettings.

RaytracedAmbientOcclusion

Only supported by Vulkan renderer. See vrdRaytracedAmbientOcclusionSettings.

RaytracedEnvironmentShadows

Only supported by Vulkan renderer. See vrdRaytracedEnvironmentShadowsSettings.

Off

Disables Photon Tracing and uses the default full global illumination algorithm in VRED.

Indirect

Indirect Only - Uses Photon Tracing to calculate the indirect illumination (all the inter-reflected light) in a scene. This is the most common mode.

IndirectAndCaustics

Caustics + Indirect - Uses Photon Tracing to calculate indirect illumination and caustics due to specular materials in a scene. Important for transparent and semi-transparent objects, such as glass or water in a pool, where light bounces off these surfaces and also illuminates them.

Sets how often the photon map is rebuild if final gathering is turned on.

OnEachSample

Updates the photon map for each image sample. You should use this setting if you have animated objects in your scene since the photon count may be to low otherwise causing flickering.

OnSceneChange

Only updates the photonmap if the scene changes. If used with caustics, the caustic map is still rebuild for each image sample. Use this setting for fastest renderspeed in scenes where only the camera changes.

EqualEnergy

Equal Energy assumes all wavelengths to have equal weight to result in a white color.

Defines the behavior of the BRDF Model.

Ver_6_below

(Deprecated) Version 6.0x and below handled diffuse and glossy terms separately which caused dark edges on geometries especially when using a non-white glossy color. Use the Ver. 6.0x and below setting for compatibility reasons.

Ver_2014_above

(Deprecated) In version 2014 and above, the diffuse and glossy terms interact to ensure a better energy conserving behavior. Dark edges on geometries are reduced and non-white glossy colors don´t darken the diffuse term. Use the 2014 and above setting for compatibility reasons.

EnergyPreservingGGX

Energy Preserving GGX conserves and preserves the energy, especially for high roughness values. This ensures that no energy is added when evaluating the lighting. Use Energy Preserving GGX for new scenes and a better match to reality.

Defines the input buffers used for the denoiser.

ColorOnly

ColorAlbedo

ImageSampleCount

Uses a fixed number of image samples during stillframe antialiasing for the calculation of an image. Higher values produce a cleaner result, while lower values reduce the render time. A value of 128 is a recommended starting point, in general, but may be too low for interior scenes with full global illumination.

TimeLimit

Uses a maximum time for rendering a single image.

OptixDenoiser

If the hardware and driver version support it GPU-based OptiX denoiser will be used; otherwise the Open Image denoiser will be used.

OpenImageDenoiser

Always uses the Open Image denoiser. If available a GPU-based denoising will be done, otherwise the CPU-based denoiser will be used.
