VRayEnhancerData

This page provides information about the VRayEnhancerData Render Element.

Overview

The VRayEnhancerData render element contains three render channels: MaterialID, ObjectID and depth. These channels are automatically generated and are necessary for accurate AI-based image enhancement using the Chaos AI Enhancer tool.

• MaterialID data is based on material IDs that are available in the scene.
• ObjactID data is based on auto-generated unique object IDs for every node in the scene.
• Depth channel is based on auto-generated Zdepth element which uses the scene’s camera clipping values in order to generate the depth data.

UI Path

You can hide this render element in the VFB with the CHAOS_DISABLE_GEN_AI Environment Variable.

Parameters

This render element is enabled through the Render Elements tab of the Render Setup window in 3ds Max and displays its parameters in a rollout at the bottom of the window:
