VRayPlane Overview

The VRayPlane is a very simple plugin that implements a procedural infinite plane primitive for V-Ray. The source code of VRayPlane is also available as part of the V-Ray Geometry SDK.

The VRayPlane can be created from the the VRay category of the Create panel.

Parameters

This plugin has a single parameter which allows you to enable and disable the display of "VRayPlane" in the view port.

Notes

  • The position of the plane depends on its transformation in the 3ds Max scene.

  • You can have more than one infinite plane in the scene.

  • The plane is rendered with the material applied to the VRayPlane object.

  • Shadow maps will not include information about the plane object. However, other objects will cast correct shadows on the plane, even with shadow maps.
