Depth of Field problem vray sketchup

tes031

Hi, im newbie here.

i have a problem about DOF in vray for sketchup (im using vray 2.0 beta)

i tried using dof in my scene but it won't blurring
so here my setting

the distance between the camera and the object is 1.40 meters = 55.1181 inch
so i type 55.11 into override focal dist box
and the camera tab setting is default except dof's setting.

when i render it, it won't blurring just like in this tutorial

What are your Physical Camera settings?

Make sure DOF is enabled in your camera settings and set your camera focus using the tool on the VR Toolbar (looks like a crosshair).

the new "set camera focus" button in our toolbar eliminates the need for this workflow.

The beta has been over for a while, are you using the public release version (2.00.23590)?

yes, i used that one
is something wrong ? like 2.00.2 won't running DOF correctly or i do some mistake with my DOF setting ?

Works for me. Maybe because you don't have the latest licensed version??? The only thing I did was add more lighting, colors, and reduced the F stop to 3 to exaggerate the Bokeh.

It's the little cross hair icon, right above the Freeze RT View button.

i can't find it on my vray toolbar, maybe its not for public version.
but, thank you very much

it's definitely in the public version. We now have 2 toolbars, so perhaps you're just not showing one of them? There should be "VfS Lights" and "VfS Main Toolbar" in the toolbar settings.

my vray toolbar start from material editor, the last one is import proxy icon
theres 16 icon in my vray toolbar.

I'm guessing the OP is using VFSu 1.6x

Window->Preferences->Extensions and click on V-Ray for SketchUp. What version does it say you're using? FYI- The version displayed in the VFB displays the core V-Ray version, not the version of V-Ray for SketchUp that you're using.
