AI Material Generator (Beta) — With this tool, creators simply up-
load their photo of a real-world surface and it will turn the image into
a tileable, render-ready PBR, with all the necessary maps. This rapidly
accelerates the creation of secondary materials that don't require
art direction, without giving up the realism.
Pricing and Availability
V-Ray 7 for Maya, update 2 and V-Ray 7 for Houdini, update 2 are
available now for Windows, MacOS and Linux. Vantage 3.1 and the

a special build from the website. This Delegate does not require a
V-Ray license or V-Ray to operate.
