ok,
thank you.

Hi,

Does anyone know the best way to import in Sketchup a .3ds model with Vray materials?

Is it possible to import the materials from Vray/3DS to Vray/SKU?

Thank you

great, thank you all

mmh I wound´t mind to don´t have technical support... and sorry Dave R » but I can still buy old version of Adobes´s program for example.

But to me it is very strange that I can not obtain an old Pro version because the new one is out there.

And it´s not only me:
http://lrrd.blogspot.fi/2013/06/trimbles-sketchup-pro-2013-broken.html

So all the OSX 10.6- users are out of business.

C'est la vie

SU 2013 on my OSX 10.6 doesn´t work.

Sad that I have a SU 8 that works fine, but I cannot have the Pro version because I can not buy the license anymore.

I think that it is not a very smart decision made by Trimble.

See you SU.

Hi,

Since I am running OSX 10.6 I can not use SU 2013. Does anyone know if and where is still possible to buy a license for SU 8?

On Trimble website I could buy the license for the SU 2013 but I am almost sure that I can not use it for the SU 8... Any help?

Thank you!

Yes, thank you dkendig.

I was just wondering to hear some more comments about it... since I am a little worried about the "should be resolved"

Hi!

In the old versions of Vray, after importing/modeling some new components into the scene, ALL the materials are loosing the additional proprieties as the Reflection layer (Diffuse is the only one that it stays).

Does anyone know if this bug has been resolved with the 2.0 version of Vray?

Thank you

Hi,

I am trying to achieve a better composition for my renderings (Vray) so I was wondering if it is possible to overlaying a grid in the camera view... ?

thx

Serra

Great! Thank you a lot!

Hi,

I was wondering if you have any idea I could model this:

I need to model the "structure" (10cm metal beams following the surface of this canopy)

Any clue?

Thank you a lot!

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a plug-in for S-7pro to set the position for the Z-axis.

I need to be sure that the Z-axis is perfectly orthogonal. Any ideas?

Thank you!

p.s.
I am using Camera Statistics but I can not understand if this is possible....

Hi!

Is Anyone so kind to tell me how to use this plug-in.

I get an error that says
Error Loading File ArcCurve-set_segments=.rb
no such file to load -- ArcCurveTests.rb

any help?

thx!
p.s.
I downloaded the script from the first post.

Thx, I will check the plug-ins

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a free plug-in to model a mesh, more or less as the Sandbox Tools does, but for vertical surfaces..?!

Thank you

gabbyquan, did you find a solution?

if I save in .EXR, open in photoshop, adjust the gamma correction with Exposure, looks quite ok

I am sorry for hacking this post,

Gabriel: no I did not find any solutions....

bhbarchitects: you can find my files in my post

thomthom: thx, I will try the EXR correction now. I am not very familiar with it... I am following this http://sketchupvrayresources.blogspot.com/2012/02/architectural-visualization-post.html

yes, ok thank you!

ummh is it the same also for you that after changed the angle, I have to zoom out a lot to get back to the view.

in attached yo can find what I mean:

1_original view
2_as soon as I change the angle of 0,01, the view changes dramatically (actually is more or less what I get from Vray...perhaps a coincidence ?!?)

Hi,

Thank you for the answer!

Yes, I tried that... it is funny because if I change the zoom angle of 0.1, Sketchup zoom a lot more in, and I get more or less the same view as the Vray point of view (cropped image)
Of course then I can then zoom out...but it is so precise... mmmh

Hi!

Actually I have the same problem too...
