Re: Error importing .vismat from downloaded zip where did you get that zip file? It’s not on our site is it? Also, what version of V-Ray for Rhino are you using? ---

Re: Error importing .vismat from downloaded zip wow, yeah 1.0 is WAY old… I’m surprised if you can find any vismats out there that are compatible with that. Did you know that upgrading to the latest version is free? All you have to do is download the version. Also, [VRay.com](http://VRay.com) is just a reseller for V-Ray products, it’s not chaos group, or ASGvis. ---

Re: Error importing .vismat from downloaded zip well that’s good, at least we gave it to them. I still like to clarify that [vray.com](http://vray.com) is just a reseller though. Lots of people are under the impression that they actually make the product, which is absolutely not the case.
