      I have some strange problem.
      I can't import vismat materials to v-ray in sketchup. (v-ray's material editor)
      I can rename it, duplicate, remove but can't import.
      Any solution?

        Some older vismats don't work in the current version. Do you know when the vismat file you are trying to import was created?

          I'm not shure if time is problem.
          I used to do it like this for example: I painted elevation in pink with Sketchup tool. Click materials in v-ray, found color pink, rename it in " elevation" and import vismat material with all its layers.
          I can only load vismat material and then "add it to selection", but even then materials are without textures and I have to load them on my own to diffuse layer....

            OK - first question - which version of vray for sketchup are you using?
            2 - why would you expect a texture to come in if you didn't specify a texture originally? There's something missing in your explanation. Maybe you can post your vismat or a screenshot to give more info.

              Again me.
              I've solved the problem. 😉
              I just installed new version of V-ray: 1.49.01 ( I had 1.48... something)
              And now I can import materials from the same vismat library I used to use.
              Now I have: Windows 7 home (64bit), sketchup 8 pro and V-ray: 1.49.01) This set works fine.
              Thanks for anwsers.
