This page provides information on the VRayRenderMask node.

Overview

The Render Mask node makes it easy to select a part of the image you would like to render. It is more exact than Render Region and offers more control. The rest of the pixels are left intact.

The output should be connected to the scene node.

UI Path: ||Toolbar|| > V-Ray menu icon > Render > VRayRenderMask

Parameters
