V-Ray for Nuke is a plugin that renders Nuke scenes with the V-Ray rendering engine. It also provides support for advanced atmospheric and liquid effects such as fire and water. The renderer allows Nuke artists to render full V-Ray on any version of Nuke or Nuke Studio and runs on Windows and Linux. V-Ray’s Nuke version is built on the same adaptive rendering core as V-Ray’s standard plugins for Autodesk 3ds Max and Maya.

For artists doing environment work camera projections are an essential tool environment work, and so Chaos have worked closely with The Foundry to, for example, support NUKE’s Project3D. As a result V-Ray emulates the Project3D node as closely when rendering V-Ray in NUKE. This means you have the option to avoid having to pass assets back and forth between departments to adjust 3D elements to match live action elements. It also means for the generalist, far more control without having to leave their current work space.

V-Ray 5 for Nuke brings more control and efficiency in compositing, plus many workflow optimizations that save artists time so they can maximize their creativity.
