Can someone please give me some advice on what is the best method for rendering water in vray.
I have tried using a noise displacement, as suggested in this tutorial:

But the water just looks like a reflective grey fuss.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone know if you can render a section plane in sketchup? When I rendered my model with section plane it just rendered the model as normal from that angle.

Thanks

I changed the time of day and I also did what arspi suggested, it seems to have worked. Thanks to you both.

Screen shot of shadows

sorry about this

For some reason the didnt all attach so here they are hopefully

Hi, I have attached my latest render, a print screen of wat the shadows look like on screen in SU, and the environment settings for both the GI skylight and the background. I hope this is helpful, thanks for all the help.

I am using sketchup 7 with the latest vray plugin (SR1.5 I think). I have gone into the environment and in GI sky and backgroung clicked on the M and gone in and updated them, but my shadows still do not show. I have then gone in and checked the box that says override suns parameters but this doesnt work either. The sunlight source is set to default but there is nothing else that I can set this to.

Sorry if im being a bit stupid.

I am using vray and sketchup, on screen in sketchup I can see the shadows but when I render it you cant see them, anyone know why?

Thanks
