Re: Understanding VfS Error Log

Nope, not a single error in that log. Would you mind starting a new thread about your issue so we can troubleshoot it? Or contact support@asgvis.com with details about your problems.

Re: Understanding VfS Error Log

hello this information about errors that occurs in VFS surprised me because I did not know of the existence of the same but I would like to know usd meant to suggest you have the option of providing file, which preserves more memory, and I find this option on my computer?

thank…

Re: Understanding VfS Error Log

That error was happening quite a bit in our older versions, but I haven’t seen it since 1.49.01 was released. Have you updated to 1.49.01? Basically the error is saying that the value of one of the parameters somewhere in either your materials, lights, or render options, has sent the wrong type of data (Like letters rather than numbers, or a texture instead of a number). It may be related to unrecognized or invalid characters, or it may just be something random. Either way, I do believe this issue was fixed in the latest update.

Re: Understanding VfS Error Log

Dkendig youre fast as a bullet man lol thanks for the help… well i havent updated my software yet (dont have much time) but this error has happened like 3 or 4 times to me… Ill try and update and ill let you know… thanks so much… if theres anything strange in my typing im sorry (i speak spanish), thanks again man

Re: Understanding VfS Error Log

findExisting could not find any assets in our asset table with url: /DefaultMaterial
That’s the only actual error in the error log. The rest is just information, and/or warnings that you don’t need to worry about. This error means that a material called “DefaultMaterial” could not be found when you rendered. What version of VfS are you using?

Re: Understanding VfS Error Log

It is V-Ray for SketchUp v1.48.89…thanks for the help man, should I update it, or there’s something I can do about this error in the courrent version?

Re: Understanding VfS Error Log

This is mine. I don’t understand a word.
the problem is, anytime I start sketchup, I get following message :

Error Loading File C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data/ASGVIS/VfS/Ruby/R2P.rb
-1073741795: - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data/ASGVIS/VfS/VfSbin2xml.soError Loading File vfs.rb
-1073741795: - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data/ASGVIS/VfS/VfSbin2xml.so
And vray never starts. latest vray, latest skp.

Re: Understanding VfS Error Log

I have a problem which I really can’t solve, with error log too, please help.

I’m making a new, fresh file, draw simple interior, add some textures and press render and then ALWAYS at first click comes the warning that render is canceled and I should look at the error log.
The second time I press render - it works properly.

Then I make some changes, for example move a chair about 5cm and press render - it comes again - first click- error - second click - it renders properly.

And it goes on and on for each and every file I create, even very simple.

I cleared error log, and tried to render ones again, and here I paste what error log said after that.
