Ex Vray user checking in!

From the moment I started a render with Corona I knew there was no going back. It is SO nice to not have to worry about GI splotches, blurry lighting solutions / random HDRI dots e.t.c - problems that I faced with Vray on a daily basis (unless I brute forced everything = slow as hell).

One other absolutely amazing benefit of Corona is not worrying about glass. I do a lot of arch viz stuff where my clients want glass everywhere with complex lighting. Unless I did some serious fakery in Vray this was a real pain.

Kudos to the Corona team! Can't praise this renderer enough.



Thats exactly how I feel on daily basis. Tries, tests, tries, awaiting...baad, again.
I'm on second small project with c4d corona, I just cant wait to try full arch viz with surroundings to put vray on an ice-floe and wave to it from the bank of my island.
Gratz for Corona team for great work.
Seriously I feel like I'm in love with 3d graphics again.

Vray for 10 years or close to.

I completely agree with Juraj, Vray is great but not realistic, with all the respect to the best artists he mentioned and Vlado that is irreplaceable.
I find MR and Arnold much more photorealistic in interiors than Vray when properly used. They might take longer but they're spot on. The time I spend to tune the light in Vray just put me off because every time is a challenge.

I just bought the license for Corona. I am not sure it can replace vray at work but it's the only one that has potential to compete with vray for speed and offer the same or better quality.

Giacomo.

In order of usage and preference :

My main tools :

1- Unreal Engine 4 (for movies, real-time and eventually VR)
2- Corona Renderer (for photorealistic stills)

Other tools :

3- V-ray 3 (mostly in conjunction with Corona or for GPU rendering)

Would like :

4- Octane render 3 when it comes out, mostly to test against Vray RT on my GTX and for the announced workflow with UE4.
