is it possible to use the smoothrestoreview-paths as a camera path?

This is not possible currently. Would you like to render frames of all steps between views with the current renderer ? This will be possible to add. Please email me directly to discuss if needed.

Rendering functionality has been added.

this is a great plugin. can you explain a bit further how to do a full sequence of views (fly-through) to render with Vray?

Hi STU,

Currently you can animate only between 2 views, so the smooth fly-through via multiple views is not possible. I may add this as an option in future.
