im trying to render a sketchup animation, under the output rollout i check the save file and choose a path then i check animation on and start rendering, the problem is that the image keeps saving over it self so i end up with just one image instead of a series of stills to make the animation. im using the newest vray.

where is the manual for the new version with all the new improvements?

I'm guessing that there are two faces overlapping each other there. SU some times act up and adds faces double and triple times over.

i dont think so thom y had that problem and double cheked if it was a doble face and it wasnt, never could fixed that problem

make sure u purge all unused materials and make sure u dont have any material aplied to a group instead of a surface

start getting some good night backgrounds and making light fixtures good luck

search for animation in rhino, long time ago i downloaded a pdf file about animation in rhino and it is totally useful for vfsu just ignore the rhino settings and only follow the vray settings

Well, mine it's pretty much the way I found it, in asgvis forum.

can u post the link to this download, i would really like to have those materials, looks good

@thomthom said:

You could set up an animation where you render off one image per scene.

i have tried that but dint work for me i made the scene transition to 0 also scene delay and still it rendered it as a video

I switched the side and it works

u mean the default sketchup blue side face? cuase yes it gives trouble sometimes

@thomthom said:

A quick-fix is to Clamp Colors under Color Mapping.

Hmm...thought that only worked with colors will try then thks

I can give you the maps however, in the zip file is a normal, diffuse, specular and displacement map.

I downloaded the carpet too thks Solo, but what is the carpet773_NORMAL image for? and also were do u put the specular image? In the fresnel color or in the highlight and reflection glossiness there is kind of a debate in that.

how can i get rid of that white spots? im using irradiance as primary and light cache as secondary engine everything else as default settings.
