Wow, very nice! There should be more of these!

And the next step would be to also release it for the mac... I did download the corona benchmark and ran it under virtual box+win10. It was quite fast I must say. Ah well, still waiting for Vray 3 for SU.....

Ok, thanks! I don't have many big renders on the agenda at the moment so it's ok for me.

Hi,
No problems here so far. Did you also install the latest version on the slavemachines?

Regards,

You can try changing the UV parameters in the texbitmap material. Changing the tile could do the trick. I usually add another diffuse layer (use a white color in transparency) and add the same bump map to the diffuse slot. This way I can alter or rotate the bump map in the sketchup window using the standard texture tools. Because of the white color in transparency it won't render. Oh, make sure the new diffuse layer is above the diffuse layer you want to render (be it a color or image).
Hope this helps!

Regards,

Any news or ETA?

Is the Vray cache also in that folder? Maybe it's so big because of all the temporary files stored there? 190GB is indeed extremely big!

Yes it is too quiet. With Sketchup 2016 and Skatter on the horizon, it would be nice to upgrade everything at once!

Hi, I took a quick look at your model. One thing I noticed is that the model has a couple of problems. There are open faces so it's not a solid model. And there are also some extra faces inside the lamp. These two can give problems when rendering transparency/refraction. I will try to clean up the model and post back the results here.
So just don't give up V-Ray yet

Regards,

So it kind of works, hmm. And if you render normal with the yellow ground as grey and color it afterwards?

Hi Koen, I've found this youtube tutorial that has a solution for you problem: Hope it helps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyidgvF5WlY

It's the reflection from the ground that causes the yellow hue on the building. Change the color of the ground to see the effect (maybe a grey?).

Regards,

Could you share the model? I'm happy to have a look at it if you want.

Regards,

You can also try to give the model some thickness like real glass. Then play with the fog color and intensity, this could also add to the realism.

Regards,

Simply creating an emitting material could do the trick. Replace glass of the lights with this material. Maybe that helps?

Regards,

Do you have any materials with displacement? Try turning it off in the options menu and try again. Maybe that helps?

Regards,

I have been trying out Thea the last couple of days and indeed it's a very neat render! I sure hope Chaosgroup shows some teasers because the low price point of thea along with support etc. could make me switch... (only hoping for Corona on Mac/Sketchup but that's another story...)

Great to hear Sketchup is not all forgotten by Chaosgroup! Waiting anxiously!

Regards,

@jiminy-billy-bob, Ah didn't know that. I had some contact with him a while ago. And under his avatar it still says Vray Support. So who is the next victim we can throw our requests to?

Regards,

I hope you can give us Vray users some more info soon Devin! Development of Vray for Sketchup is stalled at the moment?
