black material

[kellyq]

Hi currently I'm testing vray with blender integration and I have a problem. Export is very fast and it works fine but when I try to render simple scen with applied a standard material I get a black shadelees material. When I remove this material from object it's render fine (as a clay). When I change it to SSS material it's work fine again, Light material also works. It seams to be somethink wrong with standard material or I do something wrong. With erlier version of vb2.5 I don't have that problem. In scene I used phisical camera and sun.

Yesterday I played with color mapping settings and I do something but I don't remember what so standard material works fine for a while

Re: black material

What OS, version of blender, version of vray? Have you updated to the latest script? Can you post a screenshot or a blend file? What settings are you using for your standard material? What is being displayed in your console during the render? Do the results change if you turn off the physical camera, or use a point light instead of the sun?

Re: black material

Hi,
this problem returns frequently, and aside from the V-Ray engine build number (which was my case) I'd suggest reinstalling whole Blender setup from scratch - basing on Andrey's custom builds. Together with script editions dated raughly the same it usually gives most stable solutions for me...
