Footnotes
1 – The Sampler Info Render Element supports different UVW Coordinate types through its different pass types. For more details, please see the Sampler Info Render Element page.
2 – It is supported in V-Ray for 3ds Max 2019. Some OSL maps are not supported yet.
3 – Falloff map does not support Shadow/Light type.
4 – Substance2 is supported.
5 – VRayCryptomatte RE is supported when rendering with Bucket Image Sampler.
6 – VRayLightMix will give an output the way it is set in the original scene, and its settings cannot be further edited directly in the cloud environment.
7 – Support is confirmed for tyFlow v0.16122 [BETA] (June 13 2021) . There may be occasional failures with other versions while the product is still in Beta and major changes to it happen.
8 – Using HDRI Environment from max native osl maps can produce a different result when rendering with Cloud.
9 – Gradient Ramp as bump texture is not supported.
10 – Currently, Anima 4D people export to Chaos Cloud produces large size files and their upload to the cloud might be sluggish.
11 – BerconGradient Lighting, Random, Particle age, Particle speed and Particle size types are not supported. Normal and Distance types To Object and Object Z are not supported.
12 – "Limit to visibility" feature is not supported in animations and with multiple cameras with Forest Pro version 7.
13 – VRayObjectID is always rendered with Integer (no Anti-Aliasing) mode in Chaos Cloud .
14 – RailClone mapping features are not supported in Chaos Cloud with RailClone's Use Instancing Engine option enabled. More details are available at Itoo's RailClone requirements page under V-Ray RT/GPU.
