  • VrayEnvironmentPreviewTM - is this really needed??

    Ok so the enviro preview node is becoming a pain, is it really needed? can it be hidden or better yet not created at all? For example.. Have 10 scenes referenced, all 10 have duplicate nodes of the enviro preview. I have also run into it causing name clashing because its always in there... Anyone have suggestions?

    You should clean your references. I create two custom buttons on my shelf. One is called EXPORT, the other is IMPORT. What you do is select something, then go export selection to c:\temp\temp.mb

    Then copy that mel and call that export. Now you do import c:\temp\temp.mb and have that mel command as import button.

    Now when you are creating an object you use for a reference, you select it and hit export button. Then you go new scene, hit import and save it. It will do a good job at keeping a clean reference and you won't have those files added up.

      yes the old export selected is gold for cleaning, if only the rest of the studio could do this too!

        You can safely delete it. You can also disable its creation from the V-Ray settings, I think.

          Hi Vlado, could you direct me to where that node is created in the settings so we can disable it, even after a export selected we get an unknown foster parent node come in that is the vray env preview. Cheers

            Hm, there is an option to turn off the environment viewport preview in the V-Ray Environment dialog, but seems like the vrayEnvironmentPreviewTm node is still created, even with this option disabled. I will make a note to remove it.
