So the only chance you have to work in a OpenEXR pipeline with Vray and Nuke, for example is to convert Vray.exr file before the comp. By reading your.exr sequence in nuke and directly Write in.exr againg but with Nuke Scanline. Or you can use the Chaos Group Tool VRImg to OpenEXR converter. EXR (OpenEXR) – developed by Industrial Light & Magic for using in computer visual applications and video films creation. Free online image converter enables not only to convert into EXR format on default, but to set up a compression type as well.

  probabaly better to ask on a forum like evermotion or cgarchitect. not many people use vray around here.
  i pretty sure you can open a vrimg in the image viewer in max and look at each channel and save it but not sure. its a long time since i used vray

  If I remember correctly, Z-Depth just doesn't work with VRIMG.
  You have to render it seperately.Not such an issue if it's for animation. You could even do the Z-Depth with gray unlit material on everything, so it renders fast. Z-depth is unrelated to any light or material properties, it's just geometry.
  BTW dude, I see you just registered, but keep in mind this is mainly a game-art forum. For high-end rendering specific stuff, there's better places to ask. Not that i mind helping you, but it's just a remark.

  I saw a tutorial a while back where as long as you're keeping it as a 32-bit float and not dropping it to 16 then you can just change the .vrimg extension to .exr when saving - no need to convert.

  Thanks for the help guys, but I just figured out I made a really dumb mistake. You see, I used 'Alpha' to extract the alpha channel and I thought that I had to type out the alias to get the channel. I typed '-channel ZDepth' when I actually had to type out '-channel VRayZDepth'!
  Also, I will be posting some game art soon, but I also do high-end 3D stuff, because sometimes I don't want to be limited by texture map sizes and polycounts. Thanks again for your time.
