V-Ray to Arch & Design material converter?

[particlerealities]

I have to outsource some work to a contractor that doesn't have V-Ray, and he will be starting with my models that were done with V-Ray. Lights aren't important as we'll be relighting the model in a new environment. What is the best method for converting my materials to the Arch & Design materials, or whatever material will still play nice with V-Ray down the road?

The only converter that I know can do this is the one by Stefan Twigt:

It's paid though.

Best regards,

What does he need to be able to do? Will the vray demo function for him without causing issues later on? It only resets the render settings and watermarks the frame buffer, doesn't it?

Thanks guys - We'll work the converter price into the proposal. Meanwhile, I like the idea of the demo on his computer, then I can render the final output on my computer with my license, with materials the client is already comfortable with.

Now, I also have to ask - will there be anything "DEMO" related baked into the model that shows up on final output when I render it with my computer/license?

No, I think you'll just need to reassign the renderer and redo the renderer settings.
