Any guide for using Quixel SUITE in Maya for Vray

Ladygrace

Does anyone have any idea how to use the textures the Quixel SUITE outputs and use them in Vray as i am having issues getting them to work.


Thanks you

Hey Ladygrace , the vray exporting is on the roadmap , but there is certainly a work around for the moment !

I have Vray here , can i know wich kind of maps you want to use in vray , i could test it out with you since vray has pretty much different kinds of materials

Ladygrace

I am wanting to use albedo, AO, Gloss, Normal and Specular maps within maya.
I have looked around for to see if there is any guides for Vray but i cant find any at all using the Suite in the workflow. Also does Vray render PBS at all as well?

NajimCG

Yes , i tried all your maps out with a standard export preset of quixel ( PBR / spec ) on vraymtl material . Vray can without any problem load those kind of maps ( just not the AO , you dont need it ).
Dont forget that vray doesnt follow the same standards as other PBR engines .
If you are looking at a PBR renderer , i suggest you to look after Marmoset.

Here is a little image , hope it helps .
Dont hesitate if you have any problems !

Ladygrace

Thank you very much for the reply Najim.
I am guessing i will have to Use Marmoset like you said as the only texturing practices i have are using ones for PBR engines dang it.

I will have to learn the other practices, by any chance do you know where i would start with that process at all Najim.

And thanks again

Laydgrace, here is the shader setup from one of our V-ray project:

Just as Najim states, better export options for V-ray will be available for 2.0!

Hope this helps

Ladygrace

I am looking forward to 2.0 so i can get into it more as my Course finishes this year so i can start to focus on it more, thank you both for the help
