This page provides information about the Chaos Cloud Collaboration options in V-Ray for Blender.
Overview
Chaos Cloud collaboration enables you to share your work with your team and your clients. It includes enhancing features, with which you can make adjustments to your scene post-render. This speeds up reviews and edits, allowing you to get your projects done faster.
Signing into Chaos Cloud Collaboration using your Chaos credentials is required once. After that, you are automatically signed in every time you open the Collaboration window.
For more information on general functionality like commenting and sharing, see the Collaboration page. For more information on the image-enhancing functionality, see the AI Enhancer page.

Workflow
- Render your scene in the V-Ray Frame Buffer.
If you have not signed into Chaos Cloud yet, you will be prompted to do so when you upload a render to Chaos Cloud. Signing into Chaos Cloud using your Chaos credentials is required once. After that, you are automatically signed in every time you open the Collaboration tab.
You can either directly upload the image or open the Collaboration tab. It is quicker to directly upload, so we are showcasing that workflow.
2. In the VFB, go to the File menu and select Upload image to Chaos Collaboration. Alternatively, you can use the buttons in the VFB toolbar. See the UI Paths section for details.
3. You can rename the upload using the button. Rename it however you want.
4. The button in the Collaboration window allows you to add the current render to the upload files.
5. When the render(s) are uploaded, you can choose to upload anew or to view your renders in Chaos Cloud.
After you initiate and upload, the Save image to disk icon is automatically replaced with the upload to Chaos Collaboration icon .
Automatically, there is a default project folder where the images are uploaded to Chaos Cloud Collaboration. You can create multiple projects and folders from the browser.
If you’ve uploaded the image to be enhanced, you will see the AI Enhancer tool available when you open the Edit menu of the render. Otherwise, only the AI Upscaler will be available.
