- Sub-Pixel Displacement (analytic, no pretessellation), with VDM support (ZBrush, Mudbox)
- Subdivision Surfaces (analytic, no pretessellation)
- Powerful scene elements (sets) and image layers AOV systems
- Multi-Light Output (per-light AOV of any component, of any light path)
- Multi-Masks Output (output of any object/material masks)
- EXR Image File Output

The 3DfM plug-in utilisesbenefits from the powerful and unique features of the 3Delight rendering engine:
- Proprietary higher quality environment sampling
- Physically/visually plausible BSDF evaluation via the
bsdf()andtrace()RSL functions, featuring the following BSDFs for direct and indirect lighting:
