ah, didn't realize the aperture override doesn't mean the same thing as in the physical camera. That aperture number is only available to be adjusted when the physical camera is turned off.

Also, I believe that tutorial is for an older version of vray. It used to be that you could use the override with phys camera turned on... several versions ago.

...any ideas, anyone?

I got to HSph. subdivs" value (100) and that did the trick. This is one of my first images created in V Ray, so I am learning as I go. Still not happy with the shag rug quite yet.

thanks for the help and the complement.

would you please guys explain more how to do it in details and step by step please
best regards and thanks in advance

I fixed it!!!!

next to the 'reflection/refraction (background)' option, i've set the number to 1 (instead of 10).

I don't use vray, just trying to help you find a way out, by process of elimination...

can the shop or glasses be made a proxy?

john

you may be using some old vismat materials where the diffuse texture is not in the diffuse layer. Add the texture into the diffuse layer and it will show up in the SU materials.

Has anyone had any success in figuring out how to fix this issue with VRAY and SU 2015? I have used photo match to setup multiple camera views.

I have the same problem... I'm working on vray 2.0 for sketchup 2014 and it runs fine... I guess the problem is vray 2.0 for 2015 version itself, default light in vfs2 2014 is working

Hello,

For glass color, you can play with the fog color settings.

A PDF file of glass settings tuto is downloadable HERE

Amazing thanks guys! Is there a plugin to fill the gaps in the geometries created by the section?

Thanks for the info Majid..This simlab plugin works perfect, things exports to skp format in seconds. I tried exporting one flower from our evermotion archmodels. Once i open the skp file, It contains over 123000 faces! and file is +20MB for one flower! You are right Valerostudio -I guess this is where vray proxy will come in handy.

CPU based but there is provision to use GPU for RealTime (RT) rendering.

There is no way about the bobles to ignore them and you have to model them, if you are interested to have a close look. but if you are gonna have a distance look, so there are some tricks, such as reducing the refraction glassiness, etc.

Hi PPGiorgio,
A number of things can result in the light not being emitted.
I have a couple of suggestions that you can try.

Kindly move the rectangular light a little bit away from the object that is supposed to be the light source e.g bulb , and see if you can see the light is emitting. Sometimes you might have to double click the rectangular light and perform a "reverse face" with your right-click context menu to get the white side of the face drawn,i.e the light to face downwards so that you can see the light.
3.just make sure the rectangular light is not on a layer you have probably turn off ,and also if you have scenes setup for your render ,please update them before you do another test render
4.rectangular light is not difficult to setup ,to see a sample setup go to http://help.chaosgroup.com/ .
5.Screen capture your rectangular light settings and paste it here so that the gurus on this platform can help

Thank for your comments, guys.

V-Ray is working now. What I did was un-installing all my plugins and installing only V-Ray, then slowly add back one by one all the other plugins.

I believe there is a conflict between V-Ray and one or a few of the plugins, although I don't know which ones.

Have a great day!

I didn't think you could have more than 10 nodes? Is it really unlimited? You need the CMD window from what I understand. it cant run as a silent process. Do people in your office understand while you are slaving their machines will run like crap? Its going to use all the resources it can.

My workflow is to only DR to machines not being used during the day and at night send final renders out to whatever I can. Let us know what you are able to figure out.

How is that material setup? It looks like something is screwing with the UV Mapping.

Yes that does help! I thought it rendered it as a 3d object and couldn't work out how to save it!! Haha. Hopefully I'll have more success now! Thank you

?!?
maybe
step 1 model the 3d plan
step 2 render the 3d plan

does it help?
