Same here.

We'll do a double check on our side just in case. Meanwhile, would you please log-out from the https://nightlies.chaosgroup.com/ website and log-in again.
It's a final step that needs to be executed, otherwise the browser keeps the cache information from previous sessions and does not display the changes.

If you still can't see the builds after log-out and then log-in, or you don't have an answer from the Support Team, please drop me a line at svetlozar.draganov@chaosgroup.com and send me the Case ID (Ticket Number) so I could check what's going on.

How to use Vray with Solaris ?

> How to use Vray with Solaris ?

You can't. USD is not supported.
USD renderer API has nothing in common with ROP and completely new implementation is required.

ARe you working on it ? because it's really powerfull to work in Lops now. Redshift is on it, Renderman too . you can beat them and karma if you support USD/hydra.

Yes.

Yes.

that's really exiting thanks you !! when you begin to understand Solaris, you never want to setup again your scene in other way

Hi everyone,

finaly had some time to upgrade, but I\m probably doing something wrong. Please see attached error window.

cleaned up the .env and installed a the latest nightly build, I can see H18 packages so I guess it should be fine.
I have the V-Ray shelf but when I create anything I get this error (second image).

Any ideas? Thanks

I just noticed I had this path: C:\Program Files\Chaos Group\V-Ray\Houdini 18..0.287 - Are the two dots supposed to be there?

The details of the error are these:

Thanks, again!

> Are the two dots supposed to be there?

No, they are not.
Just to confirm - removing the dot is fixing your issue, right?

[bdancer]

I've just installed it locally.
No double dot is generated for me. Package file is also correct and plugin is loaded.
Please, double check your installation.

[Ambrozie]

Thanks for your answer. I tried on another computer and I just hit next, next ...with this simple installer I can't mess up anything. But still not working.
Attached the errors.Thanks

[Ambrozie]

Uninstalled, deleted the folder. Left the default 17.xxx
