New features in V-Ray 5 for 3ds Max include:

LIGHT MIX
Explore multiple lighting scenarios from a single render. By adding the new VRayLightMix render element, you can adjust lights interactively without rerendering.

LAYERED COMPOSITING
The new Layer compositor lets you fine-tune and finish your images directly in the V-Ray Frame Buffer — without the need for a separate post-processing app.

MATERIAL LIBRARY & BROWSER*
Choose from a library of over 500 render-ready materials including metals, glass, wood and more.

MATERIAL PRESETS
Save time setting up common materials with presets for aluminum, chrome, glass and more.

MATERIAL PREVIEWS
New rendered material swatches show you exactly what your materials will look like.
