      Hi:

      I am in trouble to make this works, I try to make a siding for a project and I can't make the displacement work, any way that someone attach all the modifications that I need also the correct settings, I use the latest Vray just purchased and I have no good feedback from Asgvis, still waiting for the forum and i have a deadline, any help please will be really appreciated...

      Kalu! 😍

      1. First rule of displacement in VfSU. Isolate the geometry with the material you want to displace. In your example that means selecting the wall faces and grouping them.
      2. You had set the displacement mapping type to UVWGenObject - but in 99.9% of the cases you want to leave it to UVWGenChannel which means it uses the SU UV mapping.

      Hi thomas, can you be a little more specific with the settings I am new in the VRAY world and I spend 8-10 hours a day learning and if you can be more step by step I am very happy...I will try the changes for now but I hope you can explain a little mroe in detail. Again, thank you so much for your time...

      Kalu!


      this are my settings


      this are the rest of the settings what I should adjust to look like real siding?

      Isn't there anything at the ASGVis site?

      Also, in the ASGVis forum there should be some threads where people are sharing vismaps.

      Unfortunate no, theres no help at all, I put many post there as a Kelper and nothing....There is not help at all....Admins are too busy to respond questions....

      • Make diffuse 100% transparent
      • Add a Fresnel reflection layer.
      • Add a Refraction layer and adjust the glossiness to less than 1.0. Maybe try something like 0.6
      • Set the Refraction Fog colour to tint the glass. Use a very light colour and possibly reduce the multiplier.

      Note that this requires that you have "thick" glass in your model. You can't get this affect with just 2D faces as glass.

      By the way, what version of VfSU do you use?

      Hi thomthom:

      I use the latest version for VRAY for sketchup and I get this results not what I expect. Can you modify and place here for all?....

      I attach a sample of the model plus the vismat that I create...

      Damien, thank you for taking the time out to explain some of the technicalities of Vray and welcome to SCF.
      It's always a good thing when developers are able to consult and advise on open forum, I know you are very active at ASGvis and glad you have also 'broken the seal' here too.

      My next question is regarding displacement (I'm sure that this is a well covered subject on the vray site, but for those who are new or in a deciding capacity as far as render engines goes I will ask my questions here)

      I have been trying to master displacement on simple objects before using it on any real projects, I have noticed that it totally kills render times which is expected and in line with most other render apps. I have found a few strange behaviors however, below is a simple SU model with a grass displacement on it, it rendered perfectly the first time but when iI decided to add the white band the render was flat without any displacement, I then made the band a group and rendered and it worked again giving me the result below. My question is... does the grouping of two material adjacent to another where one is displaced and the other not have any significance?

      Hi,

      There is anyway that you put for all the settings for this excellent way to make grass in your worm. Kind to step by step to make displacement. I look in the web and asgvis and is not very clear how I can get this awesome results, Please need help ASAP with this I have a presentation in my college.

      thanks.
