I read a while ago that the V-Ray for SU was first on the agenda. Once complete, all the new programming goodies would then be applied to the next version of V-Ray for Rhino. Well, V-Ray for Sketch-Up is released as of Feb 10, 2010.

Any news / projections / rumors / vivid dreams / wild-ass guesses when its coming out?

Re: V-Ray for Sketch-Up is out. New Rhino version soon?

lol, well we start planning as soon as V-Ray for SketchUp is out… and it’s out tomorrow, so hold on. We’ll be blasting out announcements as soon as we can. Then there’ll be a testing or beta period, and then it will be released.

Thanks for the update

I know its a pain to answer this same dumb question over and over, but I had to ask. Primarily, its because we were told that all development on V-Ray for Rhino had stopped for about a full year to get the Sketch-Up version out the door. That’s cool that the code will be better/faster/stronger but its a little concerning that the team was focused elsewhere for so long.

Thanks in advance for any and all updates you can make. I’m only asking because I care.

Re: V-Ray for Sketch-Up is out. New Rhino version soon?

well we’ve been rewriting our v-ray plugin that we port around from application to application. We’ve only spent a couple months on SketchUp specifically.

Hopefully only a couple of months for Rhino too,because it has already been a long time since we did get something… ☹

Since VfR was the first released plugin from ASGvis it’s quite hard to see it in the second place now. I hope will see full power of development on VfR again in the future. Support and bug fixes are very important for daily user like me.

Re: V-Ray for Sketch-Up is out. New Rhino version soon?

What happened to the launch today? Did someone forget to fuel the rocket you have on the homepage? Any idea when it will be released now?  
I already had this dissapointment once this week already… Splinter Cell Convictions was meant to be out next week and now its been put back till end of April. FML!!

Re: V-Ray for Sketch-Up is out. New Rhino version soon?

well we got about 20" on Friday officially (it’s up to my waist though so weathermen are liars), and looks like this storm is dumping just about as much as the last one. Fernando’s road was completely shut down until yesterday when he and his dad shoveled it… and now it’s all buried again today. -cries- Nobody’s in the office, and nobody was in the office on Friday or Monday either I believe (I know I wasn’t there, I’ve been working from home since Friday). Just doesn’t seem like a good idea to launch the product with nobody in the office to handle sales or support questions.

Re: V-Ray for Sketch-Up is out. New Rhino version soon?

So is the new V-Ray release not an upgrade for current V-Ray users? We have to buy the full version again? I bought my license in October.

That just sound like crunch time from hell. Mr Murphy and his damned laws strikes again.

Re: V-Ray for Sketch-Up is out. New Rhino version soon?

We should be done resolving the issue within the next 1-2 hours. We aren’t going to wait for this snow storm to stop… There’s another storm coming our way Monday… so if we wait for weather, we’re never going to get anywhere. There are just some minor technical difficulties we’re trying to work through, should be up soon 🙂
