V-ray 5.1 for Rhino requires Rhino 7.3 but Rhino 7 is only up to 7.1 atm

[DeyanVisualisations]

Hello,

I was having issues with the lightmix in Vray for Rhino 5, so I was recommended that I install the latest V-ray for Rhino version.

My old V-ray version was 5.0 and therei s a V-ray 5.1.

However upon trying to install it, I am being asked for Rhino 7.3, even though rhino 7.1 is the latest version.

Does this mean I can not have the latest _vray for Rhino with Rhino 7 at this point?

Any help is much appreciated.

Many Thanks!

Dear DeyanVisualisations, hello.

The latest Rhino 7 version is 7.10 (as ten, not one).
If you already installed Rhino 7 you could check the version from Help > About Rhinoceros and use Help > Check for Updates to see is there are any available.

If you are still experiencing issues with the installation, we are here to help.
Just share.

Best regards,
TS

Hello,

Upon updating to 5.15 my old scenes are wiped clean of V-ray material and lights. ( I previously ahd vray 5 Update 1- november edition, where cosmos was first implemented)

Is there a way to somehow prevent this ? ( i have downgraded to my previous V-ray version for now just so I can continue to use the models I have today )

Any Thoughts (Appologies, I know this is seperate from my previous question)

Many Thanks

Hello again,

The first time you open a scene created with an older version, not all assets are loaded at once, yes.
This was discussed in other forum threads too.

Please open the same scene for a second time ( with the upgraded version ) and confirm that they now appear.
Waiting for your answer.

Please take a look here.
It is well explained at our documentation page.
