hey thomthom
tried to reduce file size... but the settings i used r not copied in, but materials r there

here's the model : )

what do u think?

vraymodel4.skp

thanks for replies : )
it helps.

could you attach a direct file of the visopt file?

i had some success whhheeeeheeey : )
with this white 'no materials' image.
1 step forward but 500 back?
tried to render an image with materials applied....sketchup crashes immediately!
i've already gotten yr plug-in thomthom, for removing materials bytheway, and using only very few simple materials.

thomthom - do u mean attach the skp file? i can do so!

thanks

i really didnt change much from the first image to the "final" horrible render png!

come on guys! I am sure someone of you know and can show my in a good direction... is it some samples settings that went terrible wrong?

and it took 6 hours : (

tried to understand vray! going crazy.
after 6 hours of rendering...this is my result!
my first test image with low resolution looked kinda of ok but still sh*t

any Quick Tips? I have a deadline to catch and am going insane.

oh...if it helps at this level: Vray 1.48.66 for windows and SU 7 free
