iray_Renderer - superclass: RendererClass; super-superclass:MAXWrapper - 16:16 - classID: #(1048411834, 348141227)
NEW in 3ds Max 2012: The iray renderer is a unbiased path tracer designed to perform physically accurate lighting simulations using both the CPU
and any available GPUs on the host system.
For advanced settings, see also the iray String Options topic.
"Rendering Duration Per Frame" Group Of Controls
Get/set the time in seconds to run the simulation.
Valid value range is 1 to 1073741824, default is 60 seconds.
<iray_Renderer>.durationMode Name default: #time -- enum durationMode enums: {#time|#iterations|#unlimited}
When set to #time (default), the simulation will stop after the number of seconds specified by the .durationInSeconds property.
When set to #iterations, the simulation will perform the number of iterations specified by the .durationPasses property.
When set to #unlimited, the simulation will continue until stopped manually.
Get/set the number of passes to iterate through when the durationMode is set to #iterations
Valid value range is 1 to 1073741824, default is 500 iterations.
"Trace/Bounce Limits" Group Of Controls
Get/set the state of the radio buttons controlling the Trace/Bounce Limits.
When set to false (default), the light bounces will not be limited, producing a physically accurate lighting simulation.
When set to true, the light bounces will be limited to the threshold defined by the .lightBouncesMaximum property.
Get/set the maximum number of light bounces used when the .lightBouncesLimited property is set to true.
"Image Filtering (Antialiasing)" Group Of Controls
<iray_Renderer>.imageFilterType Name default: #gauss -- enum imageFilterType enums: {#box|#gauss|#triangle}
Get/set the image filter type.
Get/set the image fillter width.
"Displacement (Global Settings)" Group Of Controls
Get/set the state of the Displacement > View option.
Get/set the state of the Displacement > Smoothing option.
Get/set the Displacement > Edge Length property value.
Valid value range is 0.0 to 1e+006, default is 2.0
Get/set the Displacement > Maximum property value.
Valid value range is 0.0 to 1e+006, default is 20.0
Get/set the drop-down list state of the Displacement > Max.Subdiv. option.
"Material Override" Group Of Controls
Get/set the state of the Material Override > Enable option.
When set to true, all scene materials will be overridden with the material specified by the .overrideMaterial property.
When set to false (default), the existing scene materials will be used, regardless of the value of the .overrideMaterial property.
