      What version of VfSU do you use?

      If you're using the original then you need to explode and regroup. Or convert the Groups to Components.

      If you're using the SR1.x versions then it should be enough to reopen the file.

        I often get this when I applied a new V ray material. Usual if I preview the material it is enough to get it to render.

                Do the component render after you reload the file?

                Is it components - or groups that disappear. So far I've ever seen only groups that doesn't render.
                (if it looks like it's components that doesn't render; check if they have groups inside them)

                Has any one of you an small example scene you can upload here?

                  i am using only components and no groups...
                  but my components are hierarchical.. means there are components in components inside components...
                  if i explode all ... then its hard to edit them...

                    Important question: Does it render after the file is reloaded?

                    How deep is the nesting?

                    Do you have a sample file where this happens?

                      Hey friends..
                      Thankyou all for your support..
                      well I found out the cause and its solution..
                      In my final scene i used Xref manager plugin to Xref 7 files into one..
                      so after you add the xref links.... a dialog box asks whether IT SHOULD PURGE UNUSED COMPONENTS OR YOU LL DO IT MANUALLY.
                      HERE YOU SHOULD SAY NO.
                      hope this might help anyone getting the same error..
                      Dont let the Xref plugin Purge the unused components...
                      Instead before Xrefing each file purge unused components in them.

                      have a nice time...
