Q: Does Maverick support multi-GPU rendering?

Yes, it does. Actually, the best way to get a speed boost is to throw in an extra Nvidia GPU. Note however that adding additional GPUs adds up performance (almost linearly!) but does not add VRAM since each GPU stores its own copy of the scene data during render-time. Take a look at the Maverick Benchmark for normalized performance charts gathered by our Team & contributors: https://maverickrender.com/benchmark/

Q: What are the main features of Maverick?

In short, and in order, Maverick's main features are: Ease of use. Top-notch quality. High performance. Maverick Studio has been designed to be as easy to use as can be while keeping all the power it packs under the hood accessible to advanced users. Being unbiased and spectral, with support from our proprietary material math model, Maverick provides unmatched quality and performance.

Q: Is Maverick RGB or spectral?

Maverick is fully spectral at all times, meaning it takes every wavelength of the visible light spectrum into account. This translates into richer, more vibrant and accurate colors than most render engines. As as side effect features like dispersion or thin-film coatings emerge naturally and look true-to-life.

Q: Is Maverick biased or unbiased?

Maverick is fully unbiased and does not cut any corners to achieve 100% accurate light simulation. Our core is unforgivingly physically-based and provides a PBR-compliant material model that is energy-loss free and feature-rich. More than as a render engine, we like to think of Maverick as a full-fledged light simulator... wrapped in an easy-to-use UI that hides all the mathematical and physical complications from the user.
