Anyone knows more about it?

I am getting errors with SU17 and Beta as well.
I just finished a fresh windows 10 x64 install.
Installed and registered Sketchup 2017 x64 and tried to install Vray beta x64.
When I run SU i get

I can't find Plugins folder in my SU installation folder. vfs.rb is also missing.
Downloaded both apps and reinstalled them. Nothing changed.

Here's the command line window during install:

Older vray is not compatible with SU 2017

Any idea if stereoscopic camera will appear in 3.0?

well i've been able to change my radeon to 8800gt card, still waiting for it though. After couple of days of research i was unable to find any solution. Also radeon HD 2xxx cards suffer from the same issue.
what people generally say is ditch the radeon series for nvidia based cards and never look back (ATI is a no-no for cad, except for firegl cards). dont know if that is true or not but im not going to loose my nerves using something what is not 100% satysfying my needs..

i have also some issues but with radeon 3850 :
http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3966
reported it to cards manufacturer.
if there's no solution to my problems, ill change my card for nvidia.

Here's what i mean :

a cylinder I just created

and its back side:

oh, and the problem disappears when switching to software rendering

Hi Rogal,

The situation is that ATI cards aren't said to be very good with SU (especially with their OpenGL features). In any case, visit the manufacturer's website to check if there is a driver update. You may try to turn hardware acceleration off to see any difference.

tried that already... maybe new drivers will help. if i only knew that before i got it...

@gaieus said:

I don't know what you mean with the back faces - they are supposed to be blue.

my bad i mean "the other, invisible while creating, side" of a cylinder

@gaieus said:

If you have any problem with selection, you may try to check "Correct reversed picking driver bug" provided your problem is related to this (of what you wrote, I cannot really tell).

tried that as well made things even worse

Thank you for a prompt reply

Hi i just got a radeon 3850 graphics card and i've run into some problems regarding open GL.
When creating cylinders, back face of it is all blue. I'm also having problems selecting faces and objects?
has anyone else had any problems with radeon 3850 ?
I'll later check if this appears in software acceleration mode, post my system specs/soft versions and mayby some pictures.

First of all, i'd like to say hi to everyone
I was wondering is there a linux version in development? I mean, come on! If I had autocad and sketchup under linux, I wouldn't need windows at all! There is a Mac OS version and as far as i know OSX and Linux are both unix based...
This issue has been discussed on other forums , but no definite answer was ever given...
google's page says there is no SU for linux available AT THIS TIME.
