      Hi I am exporting a vrmesh from 3DS Max 2014 and rendering the proxy in Sketchup but having all sorts of problems with materials. I have tried placing vrmesh and textures in same folder. Some times one material applies correctly but the others default to a colour.

      Can someone please pass on a workflow to get this working?
      Thanks

        After importing vray proxy, I had to go into Vray materials and remap materials. If I 'right-click->save as' the proxy I can then bring the proxy into future sketchup models without having to reapply materials.
        The UV mapping seems correct too, but I'm pretty new to this.
