    Please, help me with a problem I use to have some times.
    Some textures aren't reflected on the windows.
    I attached some examples I made.

    I'm using Vray 1.49 and SketchUp 8.0.4811 on Windows 7

    The floor isn't reflected but the rest of the materials are reflected on the windows.

    Thanks in advance for your support.

    Anthony.

          yeap reverse face. or if you dont want to flip it, be sure the texture is applied in both face. The one that you can see it the reflection is the material on the positive face.

            It worked! Thanks.
            As you can see, the grass wasn't reflected on the windows, it just showed a white surface reflected.
            I flipped the grass texture as you suggested and it was white, so the lower face wasn't painted with grass, so I painted and now is reflected.
            I don't know why didn't I tried that before hehehe, I just was trying with the Vray options.

            Attached file with the grass now reflected.

                flipping work also as long as the positive side is painted. If you dont paint the negative side the texture will be reflected as ling as you have the correct side. Now to ensure that the sides are correct then use the monochrome. if you are lazy to do that, then paint both sides.
