Workflow options

There is a mistake that we could make when introducing V-Ray into our pipelines,…and that is to make the assumption that our current and probably hard-learned…workflow has to be thrown out and a whole new way of doing things assimilated…before we can even start to make use of the software in a production setting.…To be honest this is, generally speaking, not true.…Yes, there will be a few operating differences that exist between V-Ray and the…installed renderers we may previously have worked with.…There are a few tools that are not quite the same or don't quite work in the…same manner as we are, perhaps, used to, but it is entirely possible to continue…working with the vast majority of 3ds Max's standard tools just as we, perhaps,…already have been doing.…

We could refer to this approach as a Max-centric workflow.…Whilst this Max-centric workflow may be an ideal way to quickly start using V-Ray…in production, it will, of course, lead us to becoming familiar with its features,…getting to know the layout of its tools and so on.…
