Alright... when do we get it?

V-Ray V-Ray for SketchUp General

When can we expect Next for SketchUp? Looks like an amazing upgrade.

We are working on it, but there is no specific date yet.

Haaaa! I was just logging on to ask the same question. :slight_smile: It’s great to hear it’s in the works. Thanks, Vlado!

Very excited about seeing how much of the new tech we’ll be getting in V-ray ‘next’ for sketchup. Feel free to release some teasers. :wink:

(I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a node-based material editor…hey, a man’s got to have his dreams, right?..)

Node system is a good dream.. :slight_smile:

Or GPU rendering on AMD cards…

@peerman at the risk of derailing this thread, what do you currently use as a render solution? I have a similar set up and find that CPU render on SU Vray doesn’t cut it. Render times make it practically unusable. Have resorted to a renderfarm. Compatible GPU renders on Nvidia PC are a fraction of the time. Loathed to move back to PC but currently the only option if using VRAY/Sketchup regularly.

There’s a preview event in Boston in June - might have to check it out and let’s hope for a update soon.

I have sent you a PM.

Vlado, Will we have Material ID with GPU?

Hello, Matthew,

Please refer to my reply in Hybrid Rendering Crashes - General - Chaos Forum regarding Material ID RE support on GPU.

Kind regards,
Peter

Thanks for reminding me of that - forgot we spoke about this already.
