    I can no longer open previous sketchup files that are large in size

    I tried to open some interior scenes that I created in sketchup and used maxwell render as the engine. Now when I go to open the previous files i get the spinning ball of death and i have to force quit sketchup after 5 minutes or so. I actually just want to open these files to reuse some geometry and since i cant, It looks like my only option is to uninstall. Is anyone else having this issue?

    Thanks!

    Bug.

    Also, noticed that if you make a texture unique in sketchup, Vray does not recognize the new texture image when rendering.

      how large are we talking?
      Have you tried letting it run for longer?
      Which version are you using? With the latest you can simply go to Preferences and disable VfSU under Extensions.
      Please mention what V-Ray and SketchUp version you are using when posting questions.

        Thanks for the reply Thomthom

        The smallest file size i had trouble with was 80megs but most were around 150megs. I have let it run longer and it will eventually crash. I have the latest version of sketchup and the 30day download of VRAY. I had no idea you could disable the extensions in sketchup and that worked perfect. Thanks for the tip!

          I made a little plugin that let me have VfSU deactivated by default - and I load it only on demand.

            Ha. Great idea! I just started using vray 3 days ago but so far its great. Im used to maxwell render but i feel the learning curve with Vray is easier. I just hope these bugs get fixed and i will be sure to buy it after the 30day trial is over.

            Thanks again
