Getting Started Using Cloud-Based Clara.Io

Exocortex have posted a series of bite-sized 1 minute tutorials to help you get started using some of the components of Clara.io, the cloud and browser based 3D modeling, animation and rendering application.

Recently, Cara.io had an official lunch with the Chaos Group’s V-Ray rendering completely integrated in the cloud. This means that you can render out using V-Ray, with all the functionality of V-Ray right through Clara.io.

 

V-Ray in Clara.io integrates:

  • Light Types: Mesh, Sun, Area, Hemisphere, Omni, Spot and Directional.
  • Materials: Standard, Car Paint, Subsurface Scattering, Bump, and Layered BRDF Materials.
  • Rendering: Global Illumination, Color Bleeding, Reflections, Refraction, and Caustics.
  • Custom Formats: Vismats, VRMats and VRScenes.
  • Advanced Controls: Sampling, Quality, Bucket Order, Color Mapping, and Environment Maps.
