  • view and rotate vray materials?

    Is it possible to view and rotate materials. I am having difficulty adjusting the materials on objects?

    You do this within sketchup (remember the workflow - apply materials in sketchup - then link in vray). So in sketchup, you right click on a texture and select rotate from the context menu. You can also stretch the texture.

      In relation to linking a sketch up material to a Vray via linking my only option when inside the material editor in Vray are as follows

      Add VrayMtl
      Add Vray2sided Mtl
      Add Vrayskp2sided Mtl
      Add another got bored typing it!

      I seem to rememeber that there used to be a link material on a previous version of Vray however if the option for linked is not there how would you recommend I proceed?

      Yet again I know I will be calling you a legend in the very near future!

      Kind regards

        Now you've lost me!

        My version (!) has in the vray material editor - (right click) scene material - add material - add Add VraylinkedMtl

        So you seem to have lost a bit of your menu - have a look under the desk!

        Sorry don't know whats wrong here.

                No problem fella, One of those things, means I have to work harder haha earn my keep!

                I am currently struggling trying to get a corrugated gold panel to look semi transparent.... any pointers on this one? Should I post what I have made so far for people tweaking?

                Yet again appreciate your time David.
