The developers explain that SmartVault keeps track of asset “fingerprints,” so they never need to be uploaded again – regardless of how they’re named, what scene they’re used in or where they’re stored locally. SmartVault is a secure database where all data uploaded through Chaos Cloud is stored for easy recall and additional renders.

After that, only the parts of a scene that change will need to be resynced, keeping upload times to a minimum. SmartSync means data only needs to be uploaded once to the Chaos Cloud. The service includes a number of ‘smart features’ designed to remove the complexity commonly associated with cloud rendering. Chaos Cloud also removes the need to pack scenes, says Chaos Group, a laborious process that required artists to manually assemble bitmaps, scripts and plugins every time they wanted to render to the cloud. Chaos Cloud is available now for V-Ray for 3ds Max, Maya, Rhino, Cinema 4D, Revit, Modo, Houdini and SketchUp (Next and 3.6 editions).Īccording to the developers, artists can now easily render an entire animation in the time it takes to render a single frame, without having to track assets, manage licenses or set up virtual machines. Smart Vault - Chaos Cloud stores projects in the cloud, including assets, so they only need to be uploaded once.Ĭost Control and Analytics - Manage your upfront cost when submitting a job and analyze your costs with downloadable reports on credit consumption.Chaos Cloud service designed to slash render times and keep things simpleĬhaos Group, the developer of V-Ray, is looking to take the complexity out of cloud rendering with a new ‘one click’ rendering service. Remote Control - Adjust job settings in the Chaos Cloud dashboard without having to resubmit a scene. As soon as a job is submitted, users can monitor its progress from a computer, tablet or even a smartphone. Live View - Watch a render as it happens from anywhere, on any device. And whenever a scene is updated, it only re-syncs the data that’s changed - keeping upload times to the absolute minimum. Smart Sync - Chaos Cloud automatically uploads exactly what it needs to render. Part of the service is a mobile-friendly job-monitoring portal that allows for simple job edits and on-the-go job resubmission, even without access to the scene itself.

Chaos Cloud leverages cloud capacity to render an entire shot in the time it usually takes to render a single frame. The service also delivers on Chaos’s promise to keep revolutionizing the way movies are made. It is the optimal solution for workflows that require multiple design iterations, and it pioneers a smart-upload mechanism that breaks down the scene and only fetches changed elements. Chaos Cloud is designed with architecture and product visualization in mind.
