      Hi, i made this account just to make this question, since i'm having some seriuous inconveniences by not being able to solve this issue:
      i've always rendered with v-ray for sketchup. for my images, i rely heavily on postprocessing in photoshop , since i find it very freeing and i think i get the best results this way. I use extensively the vfb channels (material id, zdepth, mate sahdows, etc...) in my processing.

      Here comes my issue: in the studio i'm working they have just upgraded to sketchup 2014 and vray 2.0 . All is fine with it, but when i render, the Vray Frame Buffer only dispplays the RGB and Alpha as available channels. I doesn't matetr wich channels i select as output in the vray options, those two are the only ones who appear in the VFB, and the only files that i get when using the "save all channels" option. If i create a custom channel from the options, that custom channel does apepar, but it is full black and i don't really know what that customm channel actually represents.

      So, any ideas from you fellows? i have tried different save and export methods,but all remains the same. i know this will probable be the only time i write in this forum, and i hope i'm not expecting too much, but the help will be gratly appreciated. Hope you can find a way to help me, and i hope to be able to retribute taht help to you somehow : )

        You're either using the demo or a cracked version.

              i have same problem..but, the custom channel could be helpful little bit.(not perfectly working..)
              after making some custom channels in render option, you should specify those in the vray material editor. you could find 'material result' button just below the id color in the option section of the material editor.

                  Kako6502 just to let you know nobody here will help you if you use a cracked version of any software. Let alone admit it outright. Buy the software, if you still have problems then come back.
