      Hello,

      I recently purchased the new Vray 2.0 because I'm now working with Sketchup 2014 on my Mac.
      The dongle is installed. Great, I now can use all the new features of Vray.

      Unfortunately I realized that all the .vismat I import are not saved when I close my Sketchup model.
      I thought that was because I was working on a server. But the same happens when my Sketchup model is on my desktop ...

      Looking closer to this problem I found out that my materials in Vray and Sketchup are not linked.

      For example, if I have a cube painted in red on Sketchup and I import a grass .vismat on it. The cube is still red. The grass texture is not applied on that color in the Sketchup library.

      The "force sync materials" debugging option makes the rendering crash.

      I uninstalled both Sketchup and Vray but nothing changed 😞

      I very confused because what I love in Vray is that it's working in symbiosis with Sketchup !!!

      Am I doing something wrong ?? Is their an option or a button to linked the materials ... It use to work great with Vray 1.49

      Please help me.
