Here I take a look at the new features of V-Ray 5 Update 2, but also demonstrate how to use them in your workflow. Hopefully I figured them out enough that it can save you the time of having to do it yourself. Spoiler alert, they are quite nice, and useful. Good job Chaos Group.
Here are some links for you:

Here are time stamps for the different features that I demonstrate in the video:
-new V-Ray cosmos materials 01:35
-V-Ray Decal 08:50
-V-Ray light option to control how much individual lights affect atmospheric fog 07:23
-Sharpen and Blur added to the V-Ray Frame Buffer 04:26
-Upgrades to Material Override 13:25
I demonstrate what these new features do, and how to use them. I am showing these ones because I think they are particularly useful to the daily arch viz workflow. Let me know in the comments what you think of these new V-Ray features, and what else you would like to see them add.
If you want to check out V-Ray 5.2, but don't know how all the features work, this video is for you. I took all the most important ones and figured them out, and in this tutorial I will show you how to use them. Thanks for watching.
