Thank you for your interest, I’m looking for good news.

Full support for OSL will probably not come any time soon, as it’s quite complicated.

We can however implement just the “wparallax” OSL shader (in its current code state) and support only that (by guessing that the OSL being loaded is wparallax and using our fixed version).
Is this something that will be enough for you ?

Sure, this will be enough for me and many other users who are used to architecture, thanks for your interest.

Can you please send me the scene or attach it here on the forum ? My e-mail is in my signature.
We need to fix this ASAP, but we need the scene.

Thank you, here you are.

Thanks for the scene. I can reproduce the crash.
It looks like an issue with the brand new VRayMultiSubTex support when it has sub-textures that are not supported - in this case the V-Ray OSL texture.

it probably is, it was working even though it didn’t show in previous versions.

maybe add wparallax support while solving the problem :slight_smile:

The crash is fixed in version 1.4.1 that we just released.

I am sorry, but we are working on some other large features, so support for the wparallax OSL shader will have to be done in some future release.

Hi all,

No progress has been made to this request so far as it is not so high as a priority currently.

Hi, i just purchased wParallax using normal vray in houdini. get straight crash too.
Does that crash happen to Vantage or V-Ray for Houdini? If it is only Vantage, I would suggest to not use it in the scene as it will not render in Vantage anyway. If it crashes V-Ray for Houdini, I would advise you to write in the V-Ray for Houdini forum section:V-Ray for Houdini :: Issues - Chaos Forum

Best regards,
Alexander

Oh yes… super helpful. must have 8):sunglasses:

is there any update for this? Or alternative parallax method in cosmos?

Hi bacaran,

An alternative for parallax interiors is what Lindalë are doing with RoomBox for Sketchup. You have to model a cube and relevant internal planes and map them accordingly to the room parallax texture. I have made a sample scene here with the aforementioned cube and 2 of the free samples provided by wParallax: https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1TtuFF3Db5BZyFacM5HQKiRLndBbmBrSK. Please check it and tell us if this workaround works for you.

Best regards,
Alexander
