      Hi,
      this is my firt post so forgive me any mistakes.

      this is my software,
      Sketchup Pro 2014 14.1.1282
      Vray 2

      I have a problem with Override Material even in the simplest scene with a box and max 2 materials - when i try to use it i get this message " V-ray encountered an error while trying to render, please check ruby console for errors"

      so I checked...what is written there:

      ==== V-Ray for SketchUp =====
      Done processing compdefs - Elapsed time: 0.000
      undefined method elementsByTagName' for nil:NilClass + ["C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/XmlHelpers.rb:160:in get_param_value_node'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/XmlHelpers.rb:151:in get_param_value_as_text'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/XmlHelpers.rb:180:in get_bool_parameter_value_from_xml_node'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:951:in can_override_material'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2645:in make_two_sided_material'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2685:in make_face_material'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2787:in process_polymesh'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2736:in process_face'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2319:in block in process_entities'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2319:in each'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2319:in grep'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2319:in process_entities'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:2005:in process_doc'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:1910:in start_render'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/R2PCallbacks.rb:537:in start_render_cb'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:1869:in direct_send'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/VfSExport.rb:1869:in render'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/R2P.rb:1431:in launch_vray_render'", "C:/ProgramData/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/R2PCallbacks.rb:16:in vfb_render'"]

      Scene fully processed in 0.020 seconds

      ALSO when i starts up Sketchup I get this message:

      "Error: #<Errno::EACCES: Permission denied - C:\ProgramData/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp14.lfp>
      c:/program files (x86)/sketchup/sketchup 2014/tools/progrupa.rbs:65:in initialize' c:/program files (x86)/sketchup/sketchup 2014/tools/progrupa.rbs:65:in new'

      c:/program files (x86)/sketchup/sketchup 2014/tools/progrupa.rbs:247:in <main>' -e:1:in eval'
      "

      My software is original if that can help.
