Chaos Veras Changelogs

Chaos Veras 4.4

May 1, 2026

New and improved features

Rotate Image

Reorient your source image before creating a new render. Set the horizontal and vertical angles and the zoom level, and Veras will create a fresh render for you without you having to open your 3D software first.

Render Selection: Modify or Replace

Chaos Veras has two new selection modes that determine how your selection is adjusted:

• Modify: retains the existing geometry and is perfect for changing materials, finishes, or dimensions.
• Replace: throws out the existing design entirely and comes up with a completely new, creative concept for that specific part of the building or space.

Cloud Storage usage

The account menu now includes a progress bar that shows how much Cloud Storage you’re using. This way, you’ll know in advance when you need to free up space or upgrade your account.

Chaos Veras 4.3

April 21, 2026

New and improved features

Design Lock

Design Lock is a new type of reference image. It allows you to extract the architectural design language from your reference image and apply it to your render. You can copy details such as finishing profiles, fencing and the layout of panels without altering the basic structure of your model. This is limited to one reference image per render to ensure precise results.

• AI-generated elements remain the same across different views of your design.
• At present, Design Lock has a success rate of 75%, but Chaos is working hard to improve this tool.

Video Combine

The Video Combine feature allows you to select multiple video renders and merge them into a single file. This feature is ideal for creating a design walkthrough or putting together a presentation from separate clips.

To select multiple videos, hold down Shift/Ctrl whilst selecting them, then click the ‘Combine’ button to join them together. It’s that simple!

Canvas Filters

Fine-tune your renders with Canvas Filters. These filters allow you to edit your image in real time. You can apply adjustments to brightness, contrast, saturation, blur and more directly. Each slider has its own reset button for quick changes and a ‘Reset All’ button to start from scratch if the result isn’t what you want.

Your filter settings are saved per render, so adjustments made in separate sessions remain unchanged and are displayed correctly in the gallery.

Drag & Drop Thumbnails

Drag images directly from the thumbnail strip to use them as source images. Visual feedback guides you through this process and helps you work more quickly and smoothly.

Other changes

• The ‘Upscale’ button was incorrectly disabled if no preview image was available in Refine mode.
• Improved warnings when quotas are exceeded:
  • addition of a 0% quota status with animation.
  • Immediate notification upon login.
  • Improved detection of quota exceedances.
• Layered images (from Engines v6 and earlier) are now displayed correctly in Gallery mode.
• Fixed Chrome freezing up occasionally when loading an image from Gallery mode.

Chaos Veras 4.2

March 18, 2026

New and improved features

• Nano Banana 2 (Gemini Flash Image 3.1 Preview):
  This new AI model offers faster rendering times and greater efficiency. As a result, you benefit from increased rendering capacity whilst maintaining a visual quality comparable to that of the powerful Nano Banana Pro model.
• First & Last Frame Videos (FLF):
  A real game-changer for presentations. All you need to do now is define the start and end frames of an animation, and the AI will complete the rest! Ideal for visualizing transitions between design options, a ‘walkthrough’ of a space, or dramatic camera movements.
• Custom Style Chips:
  Speed is crucial. With Style Chips, you can save visual styles as ‘tags’. With a single click, a specific look and feel is applied to a render. This allows you to create your own prompt snippets to fully customize the UI to your liking.

Chaos Veras 4.1

February 21, 2026

New and improved features

• Multiple image reference types
  Choose from several reference types as the basis for your render: style, material, colour, object or custom. Select ‘style’ to capture a specific mood, lighting or aesthetic from the image. Or choose ‘material’ to precisely match the colours, textures, patterns and surface characteristics. If you use an object, you can easily import a photo of it into your render. If you use colour, the colour palette, lighting atmosphere, colour temperature and atmospheric elements from the image will be used. With customisation, you are free to let your creativity run wild with your vision of the reference image.
• Source Image menu
  The dropdown menu for your reference image has been simplified with straightforward selection options. You can now choose from Auto, Preview image, Rendered Image, Manual Upload or None. If you select None, you’ll enter text-to-image mode, where you can use a prompt to have AI generate a render based on your text prompts.

Chaos Veras 4.0

February 10, 2026

New and improved features

• Render Engine 7 (beta)
  Powered by Google’s Nano Banana Pro for sharper, more realistic visuals with significantly fewer artifacts and hallucinations.
• Image Reference as Input
  Use your own reference images to accurately match the style, materials, and appearance of a render.
• Gallery Mode
  A clear, visual way to view and compare previous renders and animations.
• Video Presets
  Video presets are separated from image presets for a more streamlined workflow, including 12 new video presets.
• Improved prompts
  Prompts are treated as actual instructions rather than mere suggestions, giving your prompts more impact on the final render, with better control over shape, material, and atmosphere.

Chaos Veras 3.0

September 17, 2025

New and improved features

• Image-to-Video
  Turn your Veras render or any image into short, expressive animations with a simple command. Whether it’s panning, zooming, reanimating the weather or changing the time of day, you can easily add movement and atmosphere directly from your design environment.

Chaos Veras 2.4

August 25, 2025

New and improved features

• Enscape selection by material or object
  Chaos Veras 2.4 includes improved Enscape integration. Designers can now render specifically based on materials or individual objects within the Enscape environment.
• Optimized 3D viewer
  The 3D viewing experience has become more powerful and fluid: heavy polygon models are loaded more efficiently and hidden objects are correctly filtered out, ensuring a consistently stable frame rate.
• Control sun position in 3D mode
  Designers can directly adjust the position of the sun in 3D mode, facilitating realistic light simulations.
• Several stability improvements:
  • Improved stability when starting 4 renders at the same time
  • More stable licensing and login
  • Fixed error when trying to save renderings who’s prompt containted quotation marks or other similar characters
  • Fixed error with material selection in 3D mode
