@pbacot It was indeed a black hole. The whole building was a group and I accidentally painted the whole group with a dark material. So all the standard (white) material was replaced. I also replaced the glass material with another one. I'm pretty happy with the result now. [image: MB61_straatkant.jpg]

Cool

It looks like you turned off the Double Sided. Go to Light List>>Select Vray Light>>Option>>Check on Double Sided.

you should have that same texture in the diffuse, then you can see it in sketchup viewport so you can uv-map it with tru-paint, sketchUV or something then turn off texture in the vray diffuse.. it should work.. (that's basically how it works in 3dsmax vray.. if i'm not wrong there is some trick to do the same in vray4SU, like adding the texture to a second diffuse layer and then assignign transparency to it or something like that)

[attachment=0:2lpq4snm]<!-- ia0 -->Capture.JPG<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:2lpq4snm] Thank You so much for posting this screenshot. All this while I was fiddling with the GI setting in the environment tab.Thanks for bearing with me. I now entered "zero" as the values in saturation and I'm getting white finally at last. I'm a novice and a dummy when it comes to v-ray. It's been four years and I still haven't been able to get grips on this rendering plugin. But now life seems good with v-ray.

Thx for the advise. I'll keep it in mind. I finally got it the way I want. I added an extra omni light. I read somewhere that it can occur when there's not enough light. The result [image: 9tnD_bathroom.png]

you are on nvidia, i suppose cuda is the way to go..

If you start Render with OPENCL and then swap, it works. But in my gadgets the GTX 1070 appears with USED 0000MB. At least it worked. I thought my license was in trouble.

I was having this same error on Mac and was able to solve it by downloading the License Server 4.3.1 ADV. Apparently this was just posted yesterday (Feb 9th). https://download.chaosgroup.com/

@unknownuser said: it with the opening scene in SketchUp and I can render 6:1 stereo format. However, when I open my SketchUp model and hit the 6:1 render button, or any other render button, it does not work. It doesn't even open the frame buffer window. In the command window at the bottom left of the SketchUp window I can see it initializes the scene but it doesn't get past "V-Ray Bootstrap: Building scene". Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Yeah, that issue is my biggest problem in these days. And If there is any solution for that it will be great. In my model that phases take almost 1 hour or more and sometimes it causes to bugsplat... I couldn't take 8 rendering in a week becaue of that problem...

the parameters you need to adjust are more likely the ones in the IMAGE SAMPLER (ANTIALIASING) rollout wich manages the sampling geometry details, texture details and stuff like that. this is quite different from global DMC sampler wich is more involved in manging the sampling of blurry reflections/refractions and stuff like that.. actually i think you need some basic concept about sampling, antialiasing and more.. try to google for this.. there is a lot of stuff online.. like this example links.. you may also want to read the fantastic manual on the chaos group website? theory: http://www.interstation3d.com/tutorials/vray_dmc_sampler/demistyfing_dmc.html practical implementation of the concept: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pak8wx7KNEA

You need to use something like "Object2VR" or similar.

Have you test to turn of shadows under "Global switchers"?
