Re: how to use sun?
You don’t need to put it in, its the sketch up sun. As long as you have Default Lights checked in Global Switches then it will show up.
Re: how to use sun?
Note that pre-Service Release version will require you to Update the Enviroment map whenever you change a sun parameter.

thanks its really helped…
Re: how to use sun?
I’m finding that the sun is not passing through transparent layers properly. In Sketch-Up before I render I can clearly see the sun passing through the windows into the building, but when I render the image this dose not occur and it is very dark inside. Why is this??
Re: how to use sun?
probably cause you’re using sketchup materials instead of V-RAY materials. With v-ray materials you can adjust transparency wich may be the problem.
Re: how to use sun?
same thing happens to me, i have my difult lights checkt, i use vray glass material,i have my phisical camera on, but the sun light dosnt come in… the scene is not dark because i put my rectangular lights very very up high in the multyplier… but the sun still dosnt come intrough the window… how cant a ichive this? putting the sun multiplyer up very very high? or the enviorment multiplyer??
Re: how to use sun?
Do i have to put the window glass with imassive material for it to light up? or do i put a rectengular light outside my window?
Re: how to use sun?
try to adjust the sketchup sun so you can see the actual sun facing the window directly, probably it won’t show up in your sketchup model unless you have the transparency material assing to your window, but this will help you pointing the sun in the right direction.
after that check your sun by default in enviroment settings.
Re: how to use sun?
dont forget to check your glass setting.. tick the affect shadow option..

Re: how to use sun?
Nothing I do makes the sun pass through the layer??? Im using vray material that is see through but the light does not pass through it… WHY?
Re: how to use sun?
Here is how I do to make this scene :
Use a SU glass material for glasses of windows (for viewing shadow in scence before rendering)
Apply Clear-Glass(vismat,you can find it in C:/Program Files/Asgvis/Materials/Glass) to these Glasses
Setting scene shadow until U satisfy
Update scene,go to Vray Options,open Environtment and use Vraysky in both GI and Background
Render it and you will get the result like that,if U want a soft anf smooth shadow,U can increase the Size Multiplier of Sun
Enjoy your Product
