Chaos Vantage 2: Putting the real in real-time
We're excited to announce the release of Vantage 2, the latest version of our real-time ray tracing software for V-Ray scenes.

Here are a few highlights of the new additions:
- Scene states — Toggle between different moods and variations of your project and turn them into interactive storyboards.
- Deforming meshes — Visualize realistic vegetation moving in the wind and animated people interacting with their design.
- Render elements — Composite your images with support for popular render elements like “back to beauty” and material and object masks.
- Scattering fog - Set the mood for your scenes with realistic environmental effects such as god rays, street lights, light shafts, etc.
- And much more ...
