      hi, i have a question , how can i purge the unused materials?

      Open the V-Ray material editor, and right click on Scene Materials at the top of the material list, you should see the option there.

          Please submit your question to support@chaosgroup.com with a more detailed description of your process and what is happening in your scene when you render. If you would like to provide us with the scene, please do so using a file sharing service of your choice. We typically use http://www.dropbox.com.

            Hi there,

            I've been using vray for some weeks now. I have to finish a project in two weeks, but lately I can't render anymore. I always get this message:unable to create a an error report,please check your temp folder.
            I looked this up on the internet, and people get this message when they are trying to render files that are to big.. but my file isn't that big? It's 25mb. I have added some bit maps and even vray proxy also for 3d trees & components
            I need a big size rendered image i.e. is like 3000 x 1500, I'm using the latest sketchup version 8 pro with vray 2.0.

            please help me.

              If you are rendering a large image size, you can still run out of memory. Take a look at the 64bit rendering tutorial on our tutorial page: http://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/VRAY2SKETCHUP/64+Bit+Workflow

              This should help alleviate your issue.

                I have also a problem with rendering in vray. The problem is that when I finish with the render almost every material in the picture went black. I see this kind of problem for the first time so I can not even find a solution to this problem on internet. And if I can sent somehow a picture of finish render it will be great.

                Thanks alot people πŸ˜„

                  It's too bad we cant see the LC pass when using the 64 bit trick.
