      Brand new to V-Ray,
      Just learning and setting it up. I have downloaded the v-ray materials from the chaos website, but I am at a loss as to where they go. I can find nothing that explains what to do with the files as far as where to best put them for V-Ray to find.

      Should I set up a “Materials” folder in the default ASVIS folder or does it matter where I put this folder?

      Do I put the .vrmat and JPGs in the same folder?

      If there is some place that I can go to that explains how to set up material in V-Ray please let me know where to find it.

      Thank you,

        Vray doesn't find materials, you need to import them by r-clicking in the list the desired material and select "Import Material". Then you look for the vrmat/ vismat file you need.

          Install the Express Tools from your VRay license reseller. It will install all the materials from the Chaos site on your machine and create a folder in your SketchUp materials with all the materials already setup. I think its like a 7-800MB download.
