Pavel,
I don't know VRay, but I doubt the concept of proxy for Vray matches Ghostcomp.
Actually, Ghostcomp is really conceptual. This is a good example of what Sketchup should do natively, in much better and simple way, including being able to connect the concept to rendering software.Fredo

V-Ray for SketchUp cannot currently use proxies.
-
to make a render is it necessary to turn components to their real version???
or they can be in ghost version?
pls i need help!! -
Yes, unfortunately.

This tool is essential for those who send files with repetitive components to 3ds max.
Unfortunatly only after removing this tool I solved the "grey out menus" problem. Is there any chance to update it? -

Yes I used latest lib pack (not 100% sure). Today I'll try it once more

I've found a glitch with the code in 'GhostCompAlgo.rb'
def onActivePathChanged(*args) path = Sketchup.active_model.active_path return unless path comp = path.last return unless comp.valid? ###<<< return unless is_ghost?(comp) ask_confirmation comp end
If you don't include the extra line I've indicated with ###<<< then you get weird errors in the Ruby Console if you have been editing and then deleting Components... This simple fix ignores recently deleted components etc so no errors...

Hello,
I have used ghost plug in to make proxy out of original object..
I have kept object in proxy format and exported it to kerkythea.
When i render it in kerkythea proxy object rendered without material why so?? Do we have convert the back to original form before exporting it into kerkythea every time??Also i have some issues regarding camera in kerkythea. i have placed 3 cameras in the scene and have exported to kerkythea, but whenever i open the scene, i could not find the camera on the same location i have placed it? is it any kind of bug in kerkythea?? or there is some problem in my SU and kerkythea or somthing else?? ple help
Regards,

Yes, I am afraid you do. Ghost Components plugin can only solve performance issues in SU but it would not work as a proxy plugin for exporters. Certainly it could be modified somewhat (and/or the exporter plugin could accommodate) but for that, the two, different authors of the plugins should co-operate on one that works this way.
But then all the other renderers could ask the same.
-
thanks Fredo.. you are a beast on what you do
-
Great work! "To God be the victory!"
-
Wow! What a great plugin...
I can not thank you enough to make this possible on sketchup... Where have I been so far to miss this wonderful plugin. SU Team surely should incorporate this in SU native version. I believe they will put this in the new Trimble Sketchup... Great work Fredo!!! and thanks once again....
-
Thanks for this! IΒ΄ve only had a short test/peek/session w this RB. It seems super useful!
I had one problem, though: I saved the model when in ghost mode and closed the program. When I opened the same model later I couldnΒ΄t reset the geometry to the complex form. I just saw the ghost. Have anyone else had similar experiences?

Fredo,I just wondered would this dirty trick http://72.27.230.245/3ds-max/scripts/renderlayers-0 be possible in SU8?

Have you activated its Extension from within Preferences.
You might also then need to activate its Toolbar...
