Max Design 2012 + Vray 1.5 sp6 - viewport issues

V-Ray V-Ray for 3ds Max Issues
1

Hi all

I decided to move from 2011 to 2012 and began testing a scene I created in 2011.
all is good except for one little problem - my materials do not show in the viewport.

AutoDESK blame Chaos for this issue…

I have 24 gigs of RAM
GTX285 (1.5 RAM) (my nVidia driver is up to date 285.62)
Windows 7 64bit
I7 8 cores CPU

Vray 1.5 SP6

Do you mean textures or materials…I don’t think vray has ever been able to show materials in the viewport. Only in the material editor. Textures should show in the viewports…it may be a problem with your graphics card drivers…

Vray has ( or had up until 2.20) problems displaying maps in NITROUS.

Autodesk are right; unfortunately we will not support the Nitrous viewport for V-Ray 1.5. Nitrous support for V-Ray materials is included with V-Ray 2.x

Best regards,
