Houdini VRay Proxies

[oscar_bermejotornero]

Hi, I'm trying to use Vray Proxies for a new project but i think something is wrong, i tried exporting as vrmesh and alembic but then on the proxy materials, all the masks i did on houdini are not shown on render, and even the render time seems to increase over the not proxy geometry.
Hope anybody can help me, thanks

Dear oscar_bermejotornero, hello.

I will now move your question to the dedicated forum section for V-Ray for Houdini.

Regarding the mentioned formats, please take a look at the answer of Andrei Izrantcev - our Tech Lead:

vrmesh is geometry data only, there are no shaders baked into.

vrscene is full render ready scene description, and it has shaders, yes.

And see the whole thread here and also this one: Vray Proxy - what am I doing wrong
