Thanks for this plugin thom. I don't see your toolbar after installation, already check the toolbar in view menu but it's already enabled. Im using sketchup2013 do you have solutions for this?

That's a bad bug in SketchUp 2013. The toolbar is there - it's just that it's hidden underneath your existing docked toolbars. Undock them and you should find it. In order to unstick it you must double-click it. I hope the SU team comes with a patch quickly.

Thanks thom, it's all good now. thats a very nasty bug in su 2013.
-
Aye.

ok...so some genius suggested that this VRAY plugin was better than export 2d. So I loaded it (and as with the mess this whole plugin family indicates....newer versions of supporting plugins create errors). Got that fixed....got Vray installed. Now says cant load and asks if installed correctly. Since I get the menus and such...appears to be installed in some state.
Forget this
Going to use export 2d from now on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Again, as I mentioned in the other thread - you're not really helping yourself much by not describing exactly what isn't working.
What version of V-Ray do you have installed?
But you say you wanted to use it as a replacement for export 2d... do you even have V-Ray installed? In which case you should ignore the Load V-Ray button and just use the Camera Tools button.

I knew that I wasn't crazy. Thanks for the answer
-
Yea - you're not crazy. But the bug is. They are working on a fix though.

That V2013 bug is more easily overcome by simply unchecking and then rechecking V-Ray Tools in the View > Toolbars dialog. it removes itself from wherever it was hiding and relocates to a floating position in the drawing space.

Didn't work for me...

Thomas you're a champ.
As always.I really like the update to the V-ray tools
Especially the load-on-demand saves me a headache every time I start SketchUp! -
Installed your plugin and it somehow messed up the material link when you pick a material from sketchup model it doesn't reflect on the vray material editor, the selection in the vray material editor is always stuck on 1 material, tried uninstalling the ruby by deleting the files and folder in the sketchup root folder then uninstalled sketchup and re installed but i seem to get the same problem am using vray 2.0 and sketchup 2013, seems the problem might have started when i purged materials using vray tools, i have also tried copying the model to a fresh sketchup file but still nothing fruitful,
the project is due and am stuck i get this error when i open the fileError Loading File C:\ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/R2P.rb
undefined methodentityID' for nil:NilClass Error Loading File vfs.rb undefined methodentityID' for nil:NilClassany help will be appreciated, and thanks in advance. i just need my vray back to the way it was thank you
-
when i tried this plugin, i can not export pic and sometimes i don't know why i can't get the right rendering ratio
-
Can you describe in more detail?
Do you get errors in the Ruby Console (if you keep it open)?
Do you have screenshots of what you see?
What are the steps you do when you can not export? -
Ello,
Loving this Tool for quick loading V-Ray - really awesome. We can only install this plugin by copying the rpz files (unpacked) to the SketchUp plugin directory.
It means we have to manually click Windows > Pref > and select the tools for every first time use. Is there a way round this, that the newly copied TT plugin files could also be set to be loaded (but not the actual V-Ray plugin obviously)?
Many thanks in advance

I'm sorry but I don't quite understand the question here.
Is it an installation issue? -

Is it an installation issue?Hi Thomthom - thanks for the super speedy reply
So we are copying the unpacked files to the plugin folder. This works fine, but on first use they aren't setup as default enabled, so it has to be done manually. Once enabled, everything seems to work great.
How would we enable the plugin on first SketchUp use using this method (EG, not using sketchup plugin installer) ? If it means enabling all plugins that that would be ok (not ideal) - is there a registry setting or something we could set a GPO up to always enable the plugin ?
Many thanks !

please help him too because we encounter the same problem
-
Didn't notice this until now... :s
What does it mean that "material editor is always stuck on 1 material"? I'm really not sure what is being described here. Any screenshots? Sample model? -
