Hi,
hard to have a correct answer on your problem... but i agree with the fact that some plugins may slow down the start of sketchup.
does a light/simple file take a few minutes to open or is it only on some big files with vray parameters/materials ?
you should uninstall all your plugins and install them one by one, beginning first by vray, to check which one makes troubles.

Hi.
Click on the material in the material list of the vray panel.
Then go to the material options on the right (click on the arrow).
Next, click on Options, and Color.
Now you will be able to change the black ID Color by the wished color.

Edit : my bad, didn't see you was talking about ObjectID. My instructions were for the MaterialID render.

you can avoid this yellow light by going in Indirect illumination, and put Saturation to 0

nice render. the lights are quite good.

Yeah, hard to give you a good answer...
I have tried many sketchup renders : kerkythea, podium, maxwell, twilight, lumion, v-ray...
They are all fine, but i prefer v-ray. I have the feeling that i can more control my architectural renders. But parameters are complex. Podium and Kerkythea are easier to handle.
Besides, Kerkythea is free.

Hi,
cuttingedge gives you good advices.
can you post a render so we can check what's wrong ?

Can be useful! Nice!

Awesome plugin !!! Seems complex and so powerful !!!

Thank you for this fantastic job! I will try it right now!

Hi,
These settings from Jonathan Ignas, found on nomerada's website, work fine for me : http://sketchupvrayresources.blogspot.fr/2011/07/vray-sketchup-glass-material.html

I tried your sketchup file, and I agree that the render takes abnormally too much time.

I found this : one reason that your render is incredibly long is because one or several materials.
I delete all your materials and the render was very fast.

But i don't know which material makes you trouble

EDIT : i do this override material render with your settings (except for the output settings)

Yes.
With vray 1.49, i never had problems with override materials.
This problem appears only with the vray 2.00.
I didn't download the Service Pack 3. I will do it. Hope that pack will fix this bug. Thanks for the info.

Yes. But i wasn't able to use it. The override material function didn't work sometimes, because of trouble with some materials. And it didn't work on this sketchup file

Override Material problem here : http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=322%26amp;t=59900

I already had this problem. Nothing happens when you click on Render with Override Material checked.

It comes from some materials. When i delete these materials, the override material function works fine.

wow, very impressed by your work! i didn't know that thea could be so powerful!

Hi guys,
I've recently been interested by the soon available easysketch tool, so I'm following the new videos on youtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx6oRVm8r2s%26amp;feature=youtu.be

I see a toolbar I don't know on the upper left, near the dynamic components toolbar.. It's made up of several icons: a door, a stair, walls...
Do you know what plugin is it? can you point me to it?

Thanks a lot in advance and sorry for the silly question..

Is your Layer 0 unchecked?

That's what i thought too. I uninstall IE11 and all work as before! I don't need it anyway, i prefer firefox & chrome ^^

1. The VirtualStore warning - did you follow its instructions? Move the files from Virtual Store to the proper Plugins folder?

2. You unintalled TT_Lib2? Then 3D Text Editor wont' work. (But yet you indicate it does? This could be a result of the files in the VirtualStore.)

3. Regarding the Javascript error, do you have Windows 8? I've gotten reports from Windows 8 users that this plugin doesn't work for them. But I'm not sure if it's Window 8 or IE11...

1 - yes, i moved the files in the plugin folder of Sketchup
2 - uninstalled and re-install TT_Lib²
3 - Windows 7

I will try few things to fix that. Thanks all of you for your replies

Nice & Useful plugin!!! thanks for your work.
But since the last version of TT_Lib², i always have this message on Sketchup starts :
"TT_Lib² detected that some of the files in SketchUp's plugin folder has ended up
in Window's Virtual Store. It happens because of insufficint permissions for the
plugin folder. Please move the files into the real Plugins folder."

TT Lib² v.2.9.4
Internet Explorer 11
Sketchup 8

EDIT : uninstall et install TT Lib². The message doesn't appeared anymore.
But now, when I start the plugin, i have a message with an error script about the file base.js. And whatever i click yes or no, i can't choose my font
