Two new controls have been added: thin-walled for materials like single-sided glass and volumetric subsurface scattering for realistic marble, plastic, and wax. V-Ray Material improvements - Users can quickly create transparent and translucent materials with the updated V-Ray Material.

This is a fast and memory-efficient way to create realistic scenes and detailed environments. These models can be placed on any surface or terrain with full control over size, orientation, and density.

Scatter - The new scattering tool makes it easy to distribute models of plants, trees, cars, and other entourage items, including models from Chaos Cosmos.

Replacement overrides bring more control to the creative process without disrupting the original files, whether it’s applying a photoreal V-Ray material or replacing a low-resolution model with a fully detailed one.

Linked document replacements - For the first time, Revit users can render and replace objects and materials from linked documents with a higher-fidelity version.

The new features listed below will aid architects in visualizing their designs and making faster design decisions with fewer distractions and technical delays.

All of this aims to enable users to make hassle-free updates to linked documents and scatter entourage for more realistic renderings, all without leaving Autodesk Revit. Update 2 for Chaos’ V-Ray 5 for Revit adds numerous new beneficial features.
