Introducing Chaos Vantage
Explore your most complex 3D production scenes ray traced in real-time. With Chaos Vantage, there are no time-consuming conversions. Simply drag and drop your complete V-Ray scene into Vantage and start exploring. There’s also a direct live link available from 3ds Max, so you can use it just like a viewport.
Chaos Vantage is the fastest route to real-time. It is a technology for exploring and manipulating V-Ray scenes in real-time within a 100% ray traced environment. Artists and designers simply drag and drop their V-Ray scenes (.vrscene) to explore them immediately in real-time – without wasting time optimizing geometry, unwrapping UVs or light baking. Once in Vantage,you'll have the freedom to define and recall views and scene states, create immersive experiences and better communicate your designs.
This rich experience can be part of a live 3ds Max session, which is also coming to our other V-Ray 5 integrations throughout 2021. Chaos Vantage requires an NVIDIA RTX series GPU - find out more about RTX A5000 and A4000 GPU cards.
For the visualisers, the designers and the architects
- Design exploration for personal understanding or informal, internal review
- Design validation and presenting designs to either a supervisor or a client
- Photorealistic previsualization
- Quick rendering of final images and animations, where users want to present their design with great quality
- Greatly shortens the feedback iteration phase
- V-Ray users who want to seamlessly add real-time to their workflow for space awareness and design exploration
- Designers who want to add effective “Over the shoulder” interactive design review in their workflow
- 3ds Max users who want to preview their projects with the best quality to interactivity ratio without leaving 3ds Max
- AEC users who want to create and tell a story through flythroughs and animations - which can be later on rendered offline for even better quality

Key Features
Zero setup
Drag and drop your V-Ray® scene into Chaos Vantage and start exploring. Unlike other real-time solutions, there’s no geometry to optimize, UVs to unwrap, or lighting to bake.
Go big!
Chaos Vantage is built to handle huge scenes and billions of polygons. It’s the fastest way for you to see your most detailed V-Ray scenes in real-time.
Easy to navigate
Navigating your scene is easy. Use controls similar to your 3D app, or move around just like playing a game. Walk up stairs and avoid walking through walls with automatic collision detection.
100% ray-traced quality
With fully raytraced and real-time rendering, Chaos Vantage uses physically based cameras, lights, materials, and global illumination for the most realistic results. materials, and global illumination for the most realistic results.
Simple and fast animation
Perfect for previsualization, you can create, edit, and render animation right from Chaos Vantage. Easily animate between cameras, apply transitions, arrange your sequence in the Animation Editor.
Live link
Get a live raytraced view of your scene with a live link from 3ds Max. Changes you make in your 3ds Max scene will instantly appear in Chaos Vantage.
Chaos Vantage improves users’ workflow significantly
Cahos Vanatage enables V-Ray users to transform their projects into real-time experience without any additional effort. Automatically syncs user actions and content via live linking, speeds up previz setup & rendering and allows bringing changes back to 3ds Max.

- Enables V-Ray users to shorten the feedback iterations with their clients
- Due to the instant interactivity allows on demand presentations and variation discussions in front of a customer.
- Saves time on multiple back and forth iterations and improves communicating the project’s story.
Enhances the quality of results
- Greatly improves the quality of previz animations, supporting decision making.
- Adds functionality to users’s DCC of choice
- Adds essential animation capabilities and enables better storytelling.
