I notice there are now Python 3 daily builds to download.
Are these now the recommended builds to use? It seems that they break VRay 5, so that's why I ask.

A lot of 3rd party stuff still has to catch up to python3. I've always been amongst those to give SESI s**t about getting PY3 out, but actually they are quite far ahead. A lot of other VFX softwares are only starting to convert. I would guess it takes at least another year for everything to go smoothly.

I would recommend you give feedback to the 3rd party vendors that have not yet provided Py3 versions of their software.
I do know Redshift v 3.0 has a Py3 version so they're on the ball at least We have switched to Py3 internally, it took a couple of weeks plus some testing but seems to be generally working and we're about to deploy it to the artists so that's the real test
