      ValeroStudio just posted an image on our beta forums, using proxies for grass. Matt, would you like to show it off here? You can now!

        Proxies will change everything you thought SketchUp could do.

                      proxies are made from within V-Ray for SketchUp 1.6, or from other 3d apps that have the V-Ray plugin installed. Blender, Max, Maya, etc. The .vrmesh should be fully compatible from one V-Ray plugin to another. We don't have a repository of .vrmesh files to download, but we do bundle a conversion tool with our plugin that allows you to easily convert obj, geo, or ply files in to .vrmesh files to be used as proxies in any V-Ray product, without having to go through any sort of host application. Here's a video explaining proxies further:

                        I am working on a tutorial that will explain how to use Blender to make meshes. It will be up on the Chaos forums in the next day or so.

                          for a more light weight and simple solution, have you tried using something like MeshLab in conjunction with our ply2vrmesh converter?

                            That would be so helpful

                            Exaggeration makes a dull story better.
