V-Ray 3.0

My only problem now is that my material library is full of vray materials. If I have to re-make it for Thea, I'll go crazy.
Thea material editor is so much better than Vrays. It will be very quick to do, when I moved over I just converted them as I used them and now have a decent sized library.

Yes, it's about time Chaosgroup shows/tells more about 3.0 for Sketchup. Corona render and Thea are getting more interesting by the day... Only thing with Corona is that it's only Windows (for the time being).

I was getting sick of waiting, sick of old bugs, sick of lack of any news or development. How long are you going to wait for a beta? They are already on VR3.3 in Max. Then once you get into beta, you are looking at least 8+ months before an actual release. Who knows, maybe they are already in beta without telling us. Maybe it will come out next week? This is my point, we are in complete darkness. What are you supposed to do with that?
I can tell you from my current experience, any lost time from your existing material libraries and proxies will be made up pretty quickly. It takes me a 1/10th of the time setting up a model for rendering in Thea than it did in VRay. Being able to actually use a real-time engine will take out a lot of the guess work that you are used to and the material presets in Thea are just plain easy.
Simple experiment - download and install a demo of Thea, open your heaviest scene, start Presto AO, running directly in the SketchUp window. Now do this with V-Ray RT.
Make the conclusion yourself.

I know guys, I know. I'm sorry we've been so quiet, and there is really no excuse for that, but we have some good news on the horizon. V-Ray 3.0 for SketchUp is being built from the ground up and is a completely different animal. It is going to give us frame work that allows the VfS team to be more nimble, and shorten development cycles between releases significantly. That way we no longer have these long waits and extensive periods of time where we leave everybody hanging. You can feel free to rest that clearly on my shoulders.
That said there is still a lot that needs to be done, but there are great things coming I promise. Those of you who were dedicated testers on the 2.0 release will be joining us for our 3.0 testing and if you're interested in participating please PM me as soon as you can.
I'm sorry to have made you all wait so long for any information. But I want to make V-Ray for SketchUp the best possible product on the market!

Shot you a message back this morning!

Hmm, didn't receive it. I've sent you a PM through Sketchucation as well.

Would love to test out version 3. I am currently working on modeling and rendering an entire house in ketchup and v-ray would be a great way to test the new features...

I know you would, so we are waiting. But hey sir, If I may ask, Can I also beta test 3.0. Ive been a user of vray4SU for about 6 years now.We have 3 licenses in our office. I'd definitely convince them to upgrade once it's out officially. I already PM you my details.

Is there any further developments on Vray 3.0 for Sketchup....... It's gone very quiet,

If you came to the 3D Basecamp, you'd have seen that it's not quite at all

Soooo, if you couldn't/didn't go to basecamp, just switch to another renderer, cause you don't deserve to know anything? Is that ChaosGroup's message to users?
