Q: vray crashes 2000+pixels
-
Let's start with wishing you all the best for 2017!
I have a problem: I have created an interior scene in sketchup to be rendered in vray.
While creating the scene i made, every few steps, a test render ranging from 600pixels to 1200.
Nothing to complain about, everything was as good as I can get it (still learning).
Then added lights and rendered it at 2k pixels and still no problem, but now I wanted to finish it so I can send it to a friend (for whom i'm doing this) and sketchup keeps crashing, ranging from just the bugsplat to an error message saying it can't write an error because temp. folder is full.I read up on the internet: this is not an uncommon problem, but the solutions offered do nothing. (like this)
Also tried with proxy'ing almost everything in the scene, but to no avail.If anyone is willing to help, i would appreciate it!
my setup:
skp 2013 (I had weird troubles with 2014+ and vray, hardware complications i guess)
i7 intel 6600
32Gb Ram
Windows 10.
scene: 189mb (a bit big, but not uncommon with 3dwarehouse models)

you might want to go to SU2015 or later to access more memory (64-bit versions). Sounds like you're running out of memory with good old 32-bit SU2013.

I tried going to sketchup 2015 one and half years ago (just before the release of windows 10). Just bought my new pc, but when i installed the vray demo to test if it was worth buying (in the sence: does everything work) I found a weird unexplained bug. My sketchup started to run incredibly slow after installing it (needed to wait seconds for the camera to rotate a few degrees and such). I actually asked the chaos group for help (it was after the install of vray that it happened so i hoped they knew a way to fix it). After they looked at it they were as baffled as me. So that's why I still use the 2013 with vray, as I'm sure it works.
Is there no other way to make the 2013 do as I want? Or do I need to try again with a higher version of sk?

with a scene of nearly 200MB, I don't see any easy way around the memory issue. Can you try installing 2016 Make version and only vray 2.0 for SU and see how it goes. I would completely uninstall vray before starting on the new install.
