Dear Newbie ,

Could you please share more information about your model/pc/sketchup/vray version and maybe provide a screenshot. That would be more helpful... But the first thing that comes to mind is your whitepoint setting in the cameratab (options-Camera).

Please help......thank you

Dear Experts...

any one could help me please to find this solution? Because I use the latest vray...but still blank as a blue sky in the mid day with logo VRAY on the corner up left....

Highly appreciate for your help...

Thanks,

Zach

Can you provide a screenshot of the model and the final render? Could it be possible that it's an interior and your camera is just on the outer side of a wall (or between walls)?
The white point in the camerasettings is actually called white balance...
