Mind-blowing questions! Just put camera lower, make FOV way LARGER, lift camera's target up. I atrongly believe you could find the solution by yourself

When this happens to me I just save and close SketchUp. Then I open it again. Try also to click on that three dots on the top right corner and change the material view. Could it be just a graphic's problem? Thanks.

Hi Flordelis, I was facing the same problem: trying to mask out the background through glass with complicated shapes (trees...) in the foreground. In my search I came up with this solution, which is not perfect but did the trick for me: glass material: in the refraction menu, set 'affect channels' to 'all channels', set refraction color slider to the right (completely white) add 'background' to your render elements, this can be then be used in postproduction to mask out your background, also through glass As you can see, it is not the perfect solution since it only seems to work when the refraction color is set to white, but maybe it can be of any help! Good luck!

Try to create a new generic material, and then use this image in the Opacity row. The image should be transparent. Or in the Diffuse row of that image, try to check/uncheck "diffuse map alpha as transparency", below advanced options. Thanks.

Use fur for carpets man! - displacement is not worth it. Fur is 1000X faster and better for this application. I try to stay away from displacement altogether honestly. If you must - like you said above, the material needs to applied directly to the faces (not to the group). Displacement on the left, fur on the right [image: b5Ud_FurvsDisp.jpg]

Hello, Archimonia, on this SITE, some VRay4SU tutorials. There is one on glass settings. Enjoy !

Thanks, Fredo! Really excited for the object deformation update!

Yes, please share your model so we can have a look. Otherwise it's hard to guess what's going on.

I'd been trying FRedo Animator + Vray, but I have issue on the last stage in creating the video. Vray stops at first frame and does not continue anymore to next frames, Animator seems to continue but also seems never ending on Frame 1. I have a feeling something wrong in my Vray setting. Please help, I am patiently troubleshooting now for days and nothing seems to work. Appreciate all the help.

@optimaforever said: I was using this favourite trick too already... I was wondering if a material slot in the FlexWindow dynamic compo panel was possible, just like in Profile Builder2... where you can assign an in-scene material on profile before generating it. I don't think a material slot can be added within the dynamic components window like it is in profile builder. But I'll look into it, maybe some other way would be possible. @optimaforever said: Thanks for the make default with favourite preset window, I didn't know. [/quote] Just note that if you've changed the default component, when there are updates to a specific component (new realeases etc.), the only way to see the updated component will be from the favorites! I got confused myself a few times not understanding why the update wasn't showing up... .

If you select an object in your sketchup model and then right click, at the bottom of the list you will find Vray Object ID which you can then use to assign values to various objects in you scene. Then if you have an object id render element you will see object rendered a color based on the value you assigned them. The colors are randomly assigned but everything you assign as 1 will be the same color. It takes some fiddling with and I find that material id usually does the job better but you never know when this would come in handy.

Ok, I have fresh news I start to the beginning and I test all my texture to find the ONE that do bug everything and is...... a carpet texture make with VRAY FUR. But I don't know why my render stop at 66% with the texture (it's a png that insert with BITMAP on material menu), maybe my setups are not good ? Thanks
