And when I rendered this using v1.00 without linking the sketchup material to vray the image comes out like this…

Nice, right? But when I link the material so I can add some bumps and some gloss to the floor finish, the origin point moves like this…

Can anyone explain why this happens and what I can do about it?

Re: Moving Material Maps

Are you using the original release or the new service release? The materials have changed significantly in the service release resulting in better communication between Sketchup and V-Ray, and pretty much dissolves then need to set up linked materials.

I’m using the original because the new one is still buggy. Is there a workaround for the previous version or do I just have to do it like I did and wait for the bugs to be ironed out in SR1?
