I apologise that I make a thread the very moment I appear on the forums. I am clueless to the solution;
My Blender for Vray 2.73 has no Vray rendering options.
It looks exactly like a normal Blender distribution. I saw some videos on youtube about using BV 2.73 and their ui had the vray engine installed. I also remember having seen a ui like that on my machine with BV 2.69. I have installed the demo standalone too, but that changed nothing at all.
What am I missing? I would assume there was a change in the general render handling between Blender and the standalone, but the videos I saw contradict that idea.
Additionaly: I would prefer to use Vray with the latest distribution of Blender (currently 2.76). I assume the patchset is meant for that but I didn't find any clear instructions on its use nor purpose. It would be great to know whether I am on the right track and how complicated it is to... do what ever must be done.
---other info:
I downloaded Blender for Vray from "http://www.chaosgroup.com/en/2/vray_blender.html" or a related site, I got a file named
"vrayblender3-2.73-58783-67fcf52-6f8d89a-x86_64-windows.exe".
The splash screen states: "branch:dev/vray-for-blender/vb30". I have also installed the standalone demo 32003_x64_vc11 because it was written on the aforementioned page, but there was no difference to the ui. No .vrscene export option either.
Thanks.
