      Hola!

      I'm making some interior (bathroom) renderings with multiple mirrors.
      The problem is that the reflected image in the mirrors always turns a bit purple.

      Here I found out, that the problem is my setting for "Energy preservation mode". I need to switch it from "RGB" to "Monochrome" >> http://help.chaosgroup.com/vray/help/150SP1/examples_material.htm

      BUT - I can't find where to switch this option in Vray for sketchup πŸ˜•

      Help please
      Thomas

        looks like this may have to do with refraction. Do you have a plane of glass in front of your mirror? If so - either remove the refraction layer, or change to fog color to pure white. Hadn't heard of the energy preservation mode before πŸ€“
