      I'm trying to use Material ID so that I can easily select portions of my rendering for cropping/photoshopping purposes. I'm using VRay 3.6 with Sketchup 18.

      Under each material, in Material Options > ID Color, I have a different bright color (blues, purples, yellows, etc...). Under Render Elements, I have Material ID included, along with Denoiser.

      But when my render finishes and I select MaterialID from the dropdown menu, that version is just straight black. Am I doing something incorrect? Selecting Denoiser from the dropdown shows the attached just fine, but only black for Material ID.

      Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

        Are you using GPU rendering? If so, you cant get a MatID with GPU - yet.

        If you arent using GPU - try to regenerate the IDS - Extensions-VRay-Tools-RandomizeProjectMaterialIds

          You can also set the Material ID color in the material options. Sometimes this field is set to black.
