Other new features in Radeon ProRender 2.1 for Blender include new nodes in the shader graph for creating layered materials. Other changes: new layered materials and an easy fog effect Radeon ProRender 2.1 for Blender adds a button to Blender's World Panel for creating environment fog.

In the initial release, full spectrum rendering was only available on Windows 10, but with version 2.1, Linux users can test the new rendering mode, too. According to the firm’s original blog post, “users can get a more interactive experience like Eevee with more physically correct soft shadows, reflections and refractions”. The base render is rasterized, onto which Radeon ProRender can add ray traced effects including reflection, refraction and ambient occlusion, achieved using “compute shaders and smart denoising”.īy adjusting the quality settings, you can change the balance between rasterisation and ray tracing, trading interactive performance against the visual quality of the output.ĪMD describes the new rendering mode as filling a “wide gap” between OpenGL viewports like Eevee and full path tracers like Cycles.
Released in beta in September, the new rendering backend – which is based on the Vulkan API – lets artists use a mixture of rasterization and ray tracing for viewport renders and interactive previews. However, it also puts one of the software's most-talked-about features – its new hybrid rendering mode – into the hands of Linux users. One major feature of version 2.1 of the renderer, which came out earlier this week, is support for Blender 2.81. It's integrated into Cinema 4D and Modo, and is available as a plugin for 3ds Max, Maya and, of course, Blender itself. It's hardware-agnostic, supporting both OpenCL and Apple's Metal graphics API, and runs on Windows, Linux and macOS. Radeon ProRender is a free, physically based GPU render engine.
Full spectrum rendering: a midpoint between Eevee and Cycles? With this week's 2.1 update, the new hybrid rasterization/ray tracing render is available to Blender artists using Linux as well as Windows. Full spectrum rendering in Radeon ProRender.
