RE: More VR4SU Griping
If I go that route, I'll let you know. Basically from what I understand, the Blender plugin exports a vrscene file, which then the standalone prorgram renders out the image or animation. All the material, lighting, etc, is done in Blender.

RE: More VR4SU Griping
It's still a great value - $490 for a single license...
versus nearly $3.5k for C4d, Maya, 3dsMax... -
RE: Problems with two files open
One solution is to turn off vray for SU in your preferences --> extensions. As long as vfsu is not running, you can copy and paste just fine. Then turn it back on and restart SU when you're done.

I've been eying C4D+Vray for some time now
Me too... along with looking at Thea, various Blender add-ons, and what have you.
I wish I didn't have to spend my time looking into other software, I actually have projects I need to get work done on. If anyone figures out what's the best and cheapest way to get vray outside of vfsu, I'm all ears. If anyone knows if the Blender plugin is anywhere close to release that would be nice to know too. -
RE: Casting coloured shadows from glass
If you notice, I posted one image with vray. You have to use the color map in a refraction layer to get the coloring effect to occur.

RE: Professor Fate's "Hannibal 8"
Man, that's awesome!!! I love your vehicle models, I'm impressed with your attention to details. One detail I'm very curious about - how is the steering linkage maintained when the car is scissored up? It looks like in the one display photo you have, there's a vertical shaft coming down that's possibly a steering column...
Maybe this should show up in the "retro cool" thread too!

RE: Is it Possible to put a Texture to V-plane?
if you use UV mapping of "UVWGenPlanarWorld" for your material, you can use a texture on the infinite plane. The repeat amount is inverse (for example 8" = 0.125 repeat) Here's an example

RE: Problems loading materials
it's a bug. Happens to everyone.
The only solution currently is to open the files with vray disabled in SU and do your copy and pasting then.

RE: Is it Possible to put a Texture to V-plane?
Actually - would it be possible as long as you use the vray uv setting instead of from SU? I'll try it when I have a chance.

RE: More VR4SU Griping
I couldn't find an earlier post, but here's one example.

I definitely recall they were talking about having some bugs fixed back in April. -

Guys, don't take it personally
That was a sarcastic joke. I appreciate that CG is keeping the continuity of the asgvis developer staff, but they could give those developers more resources if they chose to, like, you know, 14 day weeks.
@stinkie - what really bugs me is that they have a bunch of bug fixes already done - Devin has said so in posts early last year. I would love to have a beta to play with too. (Hell, we're basically playing with a beta currently...)

RE: Bullocks
Really well done, perfectly composed, textured, lit. Looks incredibly real! -
RE: Shouldn't we start a Maxwell and Thea SubCategory?
hehe, maybe the vray subforum should be deleted so the chaosgroup forum is used more

RE: Which image sampler to choose?
That is kinda interesting... But then you're not getting supersampling (vray calculates 1.5 or 2 pixel width per final resolution) You'd need to increase the output resolution so you can downsample to where it would be without the AA turned on.

RE: FREE Maxwell Render for Sketchup (free version).
Sure - any Next Limit employees are free to chime in with answers too. In the meantime, I suppose we take what we can get, along with those grains of salt...

RE: FREE Maxwell Render for Sketchup (free version).
Jason - I've been following this thread with interest, and I have to ask - is it "hand-holding" only if you don't know the answer? zoom123's questions are ones I'd be interested in answers to as well.
