1

I just witch over to al the new software I bought the last few months… But I am having issues with my new Vray 1.48.66. I need some help…??? fast…

The problems that I have are:

-I can’t find the switch to select "low priority render

-I am not able to render files made with SU 6 and Vray 1… When I try to render my pc freezes up.. for instance if I try to render this file? http://forum.asgvis.com/index.php?topic=7456.30 (Modern_Villa)

-In my old way of working I used vismats to create an assign materials in combination with linkt materials… Now my materials are missing, I just have the materials that also are in the sketch up scenes applied? I build up my whole personal collection of furniture this way and I need to use it for my clients.

Re: HELPPP !!! pleesss

Low thread priority is been removed from the current VfS, we all asking Asgvis really hard to put it back in the next patch.

For further understanding the issue of not being able to render see this post: http://forum.asgvis.com/index.php?topic=7509.0

I’m not sure I understand your question regarding the materials. Are you trying to load default vismat files which comes with VfS and you can’t find them/load them?

*And there’s no need to yell (Caps-locket letters meaning screaming) plus the “!!!” marks. Better to write topic that will explain shortly the issue’s topic.

Also, “linked materials” have been gone for a long time. I’m guessing you never updated to the old service release?

how can I use old files..?

Hi I know linkt mats have been gone… that is not the problem. The problem is that it is not compatible with existing files ware linkt mats are used.

I do not know what to do. I have clients and where I need to work for and some of my files are not compatible.

40TH:

About the topic name… changed. But I am troubled what to do, keep this version or not. And I was wondering if someone had some advise. Capital letters ware there because I do not have a lot of time to choose between choosing . I have to keep working on my project.

I am trying to load vismats. But they do not become assignd the model that I imported. I need to assign it agen…? is that correct?

When I try to just render existing scenes I made it freezes up. Don’t know why.. maybe I am doing something wrong>?

Re: how to work whit existing files.

1. what VfS version do you have? options>about
2. After importing the vismat, does the material shows up in the SU material window?
3. How are you applying the material?
- via vray or su’s paint bucket?
- Directly on the faces or on the group/component?

Re: how to work whit existing files.

Hi,

1. what VfS version do you have? options>about
I am using Vray 1.48.66 now

2. After importing the vismat, does the material shows up in the SU material window?
Yes the materials shows in the US material window. But if I import linkt materials I wound show it in the material window.

3. How are you applying the material?
If I used linkt materials i apply the materials via the paint bucket otherwise I put them directly on to the groups/components.

but when I imported a file and the materials the connection between the group and the applied material is lost. :frowning:

Re: how to work whit existing files.

Linked materials were used in much earlier VfS version. Maybe those vismats aren’t compatible with the current VfS.
