Hi Konstantin

So what's it's the stage of out of core in these days because i can't render My scene but i want to keep these beautiful trees, this is the biggest limitation of vray gpu the vram, what can we expect for cuda and rtx with vray gpu???

Hello, Luis,

Out-of-core memory management was implemented in the initial release of V-Ray 5 for SketchUp (Oct. 9, 2020). You can find it in the Rendering Parameters' GPU Memory Management subsection.
Some bugfixes were added in the updates that followed v5.00.01.
Please note that this feature is still in an experimental stage as it is supported only when using the CUDA engine.

If you have trouble with a specific scene, could you please fill in the contact form at https://www.chaosgroup.com/help/cont.../scene#options with the following info:

1. Your hardware specs, V-Ray, OS and GPU drivers versions.
2. A render log (once the attempted render stops, please open the Progress window via the bottom-right corner button of the VFB, copy its contents on a text file and include it in the form.
3. A scene that exhibits the issue (you can use the Sketchup menu Extensions > V-Ray > Pack Project to archive the project file. When prompted, do not include any Cosmos assets to keep the size minimal).
4. Please mention this forum thread in your report.

We will be able to assist you further based on the info you can share.

Kind regards,
Peter
