Can't get VrayBlender to render after new installation

[brano]

Am I missing something?
Everything was running fine untill I reinstall Windows 7x64 OS. Now I just can't get VrayBlender to render. For install VrayBlender I use the same files as before Windows reinstalation("vrayblender-2.67-57238-windows-x86_64" and "vray_demo_22001_maya2012_x64"). If I hit F12 the Task Manager just shortly shows vray.exe in Processes, but nothing happens at all, no VFB, no render.
Any Idea?

Thank you for the link, getting nearer. I've checked Window -> Toggle System Console. Although I do not understand much what it says, on the end there stays 1 error:
Could not obtain a license (4096). I also tried older release of vray - the same error.
Do I need license if I want to run just the demo version of vray?

Have you got the demo from the official site at chaosgroup.com?

Yep, looks like their demo builds become a little outdated; you could try setting year to 2012 or use this trick (hope it still works).

Thanks for good news..
Although that trick above solved my problem, it changes date of windows OS and it causes problem with internet connection and programs like Thunderbird for example.
With the new demo builds everything ok.

Update your build, 2.67 is already available.

Re: Can't get VrayBlender to render after new installation

Got the similar problem as above. (different lines... how can i add console text? Can't copy-paste from console.)

Blender 2.68a (r58537) with the latest exporter (268_bdancer-vb25-5d87489.zip) added as vb25 directory in "c:\Program Files\Blender\blender-2.68a-windows64\2.68\scripts\startup\..." doesn't do nothing (can't render, no material previews...) I just got the similar message in console. //at end - AttributeError: 'VRayMaterial' object has no attribute 'BRDFVRayMtl'
V-Ray/Blender Custom Build (VRayBlender-2.6 works OK. Exporter for previous versions (2.66, 2.67) also worked OK.

I wish to only use one instance of Blender with VRay & Cycles. So, is there an option to add Cycles to your custom build or any other advice?
