V-Ray Next for Maya will feature advanced GPU features and a smarter IPR. Due to the imminent release, Chaos Group will no longer support V-Ray 1.5 or 2.0 for Maya. From the Chaos Group support team, ‘Please be informed that after 7 years Chaos Group is ending support for V-Ray 1.5 and 2 for Maya on October 15, 2018. After this date, V-Ray 1.5 and 2 for Maya users will no longer have:
